The Andy and Olly Show
We are here to demystify the wine industry! Initially we recorded LIVE on Instagram, so there is no getting away from technical glitches and now on a slightly more stable medium!
We talk to other winemakers around grape varietals grown, techniques used, terroir in the area, mishaps along the way and of course everything else in between too! This is a fun filled podcast that captures the imagination of those interested to learn more about the wine industry in short sharp episodes.
If you like the podcast or have any feedback, just let us know. Follow us on social media for more fun and wine related stories @thenorthernwineguy .
