This week on Ideas we talk to a couple of French biodynamic winemakers - brothers Jean-Phillipe and Jean-Guillaume Bret - and hear about their unorthodox approach to winemaking And we ask whether claims that some wines can actually be good for you should be taken with a strong dose of scepticism.
The programme features wine importer and passionate advocate of the health benefits of Madiran wines Rob Lauder, Hawke's Bay winemaker Tony Pritchard, and Professor Doug Sellman who is - to say the least - sceptical of the claims that wine can be a health tonic.
A weekly programme exploring a range of philosophical, social, historical and environmental ideas.
Ideas is broadcast on Radio New Zealand National at 11:05am on Sunday Morning with Chris Laidlaw
