Wine and Uncorked Chronicles

On this episode of Wine & Uncorked Chronicles, we sit down with Cyril Meidinger — a French-Greek wine explorer whose path winds from Alsace and Bordeaux to South Africa and now Blue Heron Wine Shop in Munich. Cyril uncorks stories from his travels, shares insights on global wine trends, and talks about what makes South African wines shine abroad. From blind tasting championships to launching his own label, this conversation is equal parts inspiring and delicious.

Step into the cozy ambience of a Munich wine shop as we sit down with Joe Hay, a New Zealand bloke whose journey with wine has taken him across continents. In this episode of Wine & Uncorked Chronicles, Joe shares stories from his vineyard upbringing, how he found himself in Munich, and the cultural quirks of wine life in Germany vs. New Zealand. We also had a chance to drink some of the Chard Farm wines: Mata-Au Pinot Noir 2023 & Closeburn Chardonnay 2023Check out the Blue Heron WinesZieblandstraße 2 80799 MunichInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/blueheron_wines/https://www.blueheron.de/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaf4G0Bm2GDgriVRaWlwuQ-M851FJg7RHZXjDQAcmenYpOKfaaohOZ_f7ZXC3w_aem_zkB9gXzGPf1JxrjpWns9NABook a Wine tasting: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/blueheronwineshop?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAadRvMAeCCXXR-B1GePNkt7J5YVWU4hUQRMzLhBftuB_- Ws92oHqPp3v4G_OWA_aem_ORPxTax5N4L5kC98W-67EACheck out the Chard FarmWebsite: www.chardfarm.co.nzInsta: https://www.instagram.com/chardfarm/FB: https://www.facebook.com/chardfarm/

One heartbreak, two glasses of Merlot, too many shots, a rainy highway… and boom — I’m in a ditch with my cousin, throwing up in unison while a raccoon judges us. Plus, a sultry Russian wine review blaming my ex for everything. Cheers.
