Today on the podcast we have Christian Eedes of winemag.co.za – a wine website that was born out of a magazine published in South Africa from 1993 to 2011. Their tagline is “Everything to do with South African Fine Wine”.
He is, to my mind, one of the most important voices in South African wine criticism.
This week saw the annual State of the Nation Address (or SONA for short) by President Ramaphosa, and I wanted to get Christian’s opinions of the state of South African fine wine.
Christian is certainly one of the most knowledgeable and widely-tasted people in South African wine over the last 3 decades. He brings a context and a perspective that can only be gained over many years of submersion in an industry.
We last did one of these chats in February 2020 – just as the COVID pandemic was starting to develop – Link: https://www.exanimo.co.za/podcast/#1599999555612-1917a56b-e69c
