In this week's episode of 'No Stupid Questions' our favourite odd couple, Tim and Eddie answer a very good question about malolactic fermentation (AKA 'malo' for the cool kids out there/people who CBF saying the whole word) and what it actually means. Featuring two chardonnays, Julien Schaal (South Africa) and Red Hill Estate (Mornington) for comparison - we put Tim's tastebuds to the test. With Eddie's encouragement, Granny Smith apples and Greek yoghurt, the question is: will our wine student Tim correctly identify which chardonnay has malo and which one hasn't?

Seriously

At Vinomofo, we love our wine, but we like to also lead long and happy lives, and be good to the world and the people in it. We all try to drink responsibly, in moderation, and we really hope you do too.

Don’t be that person…
