#38 Matt Purbrick: Farmer, winemaker, lover of life




Dumbo Feather Podcast show

Summary: This month on the podcast we had the pleasure of sitting down with farmer and winemaker Matt Purbrick. You may already know Matt from Grown and Gathered, where he and his wife Lentil celebrate the joys of seasonal planting and bringing people around a table to enjoy the harvest. As a fifth-generation winemaker, viticulture is in his blood and he’s been busy making, bottling and drinking delicious, organic, sustainable wines with Lentil and his dad Alister. We loved listening to Matt talking about his relationship with the land and the seasons, his belief that community and connection is everything, his fears around our changing climate and his fascination with ancestral wisdom. Show notes This edited conversation was produced by Lizzie Marton and the music you hear is by Dennis Liu.
