The Human Element: A Brief Discussion with Steve Matthiasson




Cru Wine Podcast | Stories From The People Behind Wine show

Summary: In this conversation, Steve and I discuss the human element in wine in regards to terroir. This subject came up after myself speaking to comparative tastings of white Burgundy and California Chardonnay, the differences between the two in terms of minerality and richness, followed by the stylistic differences. Steve argues that the primary difference is the human element and style, which more often that not is left out of the conversation of terroir.
