Meet Jazzy Podcast
jazzy.mp3	Jazzy was helping at the Winesouth White Wine Weekend when she agreed to have a chat with us.  She lets us know what she enjoys about winemaking and does a great job promoting Panorama wines. Lastly, if you want to know how they get the "eggy smell" out of wine then listen and learn folks.

Jazzy  - The youngest winemaker in Australia?

Jazzy helps Dee meet and greet.We went to the Winesouth White Wine Weekend at the IXL Atrium in Hobart and, aside from having a great time, we met Jazzy who we believe must be the youngest winemaker in Australia.  Luckily for us she agreed to have a quick chat.

Jazzy is only 11 but still helps her Mum and Dad (Sharon and Mike of Panorama Vineyard) make some of their wines.  She has already had a wine named after her and the Panorama Jazzy Rosè was featured at the Winesouth Red Wine Weekend in June.  If our memory serves us correctly it was a pretty good drop.  We are looking forward to the Jazzy handcrafted 'sticky' wine when it is released.

Not content with that Jazzy is also a regular at the Winesouth events helping Dee Atkinson to meet wine lovers as they arrive, stamp their hands and help with the lucky door prize.  In fact being busy seems to be a theme in Jazzy's life.  PJ asked her what she did when she wasn't helping in the vineyard or travelling an hour each way to school and she talked about riding around on her quad bike checking on the nets and fences around the vineyard.  Obviously not a girl for sitting in her room talking to her friends or updating her facebook page.

Jazzy is a very nice person and despite PJ's best efforts to generate some sibling rivalry (shame PJ shame - Ed) Jazzy was very complimentary about her sister Natasha and rated her as the superior winemaker  - although she did agree that Natasha drank more than her. Winepunters.com approached Natasha for a response to this allegation but she declined to comment (enough of the gutter press work! - Ed).

It was also heartening to hear someone who loves the thought of science and learning in general.  We think she has got a bright future ahead and it will be interesting to see where she decides to make her mark.
