"It's Just Us" Dave Lehmann

The midnight shift, Dad’s poo-brown volvo, illustration and just what is (and isn’t!) the proper way to do mettwurst…

On this episode of "It's Just Us" we’re getting the dirt on the antics of a contrary kid with an impressive family wine legacy who said “stuff ‘em, I’ll do my own thing” … and ended up in the wine game anyway.

Welcome Dave Lehmann of David Franz Wine.

Scratch the surface of the hospitality industry in Barossa and there’s one mentor that will keep appearing. He’s spent 30 years digging into the food story of Barossa, one that goes well beyond a dish on a plate. He’s the history buff who has consistently rolled up his sleeves to build our future, through our food and the people who produce it.

Let’s play the six-degrees of Mark McNamara.

Trailer: Barossa, It's Just Us

Fri, 22 Apr 2022 04:18:42 GMT

On this show, we chat with the characters who make Barossa, Barossa. We open up and share the stories we tell over dinner tables; the folklore and heart of Barossa.

Stories from the night shift in the winery and from our kitchens (or hotel balconies in Sydney)
What should never be omitted from mettwurst
The precision of recipes from 1912 and how a humble biscuit was adopted as a symbol of feminine and family identity
Why it has taken 30 years to select the right vine clone for replanting
Who supported The Angels and Divinyls, scored an audition for Home and Away, but turned to a career in wine
and the sneakiest wine launch in history.

Hosted by winemaker and self-confessed 'rubbish comedian' Stuart Bourne, and wine educator and marketing director, Amanda Longworth, we uncover the quirks that make us shrug and say "It's Just Us".

....in the words of Amanda, "why the hell does everyone have a yabby story, except me?"
