| EDEN ROAD WINES
The photo for this rap was taken at a wine tasting in the Eden Road winery in Canberra on 20 May. Tastings are messy affairs as they really do involve lots of pouring and spitting wine. The bottle in the photo is marked “LR HT Shiraz” for Eden Road Wine’s Long Road Hilltop Shiraz. Both sheets of tasting notes are visible in the image and references can be seen to the LR HT Shiraz. A couple of weeks ago that very wine was awarded the Jimmy Watson Memorial Trophy at the 2009 Royal Melbourne Wine Show.
The Jimmy Watson is the like winning the Melbourne Cup (in Australia) or say an Oscar for Best Picture.
Chris and his dedicated team never dared to dream that they would ever win the Jimmy Watson—it was a miracle!
So well done Eden Road Winery - guess we all know what wine to buy now!

James McMillan
James McMillan doesn't like rules; never has. It was one of the reasons why he quit the Quiksilver surf and snow tour not long after being ranked 7th in the world. "I like being creative, and the creative spirit is all about freedom and no rules! It's about being a kid. I like the chaos of 10 ideas at once and then the structure of producing just one. It's a nice balance of chaos and peace!" |
