Vintec Club Podcast: collect the greatest wine producers from across the globe 🍷Our first international winemaker in the Vintec Club Podcast. Originally from New Zealand, winemaker Paul Pujol has always been drawn to the Pinot Noirs and aromatic whites of France. He joined Prophet’s Rock, a Central Otago winery, after a six-year around the world odyssey (Alsace, Sancerre & Oregon among others) chasing these varietals, travels palpable in the wines he makes today.His traditional aesthetic — respectful, patient, vineyard-focused — resonates in his wines, and frees them to express the unique tenor of the sites.His winemaking is a sensitive, site-driven, and empathic approach which aims to express the beauty of the place rather than pronounced winemaking characters.Discover Prophet's Rock: https://www.prophetsrock.co.nz/Wine Book recommended by Paul Pujol:Adventures On The Wine Route by Kermit LynchJoin the Vintec Club and learn more about the Art of Wine Cellaring, Collecting & Serving: www.vintecclub.comLearn more about our wine preservation solutions: https://www.vintec.com/en-au/
