Hoping it will bring the show some much needed credibility, the Plonk team head north to the Hunter Valley where they have secured an exclusive interview with wine legend Bruce Tyrrell.

We begin high in the air above Mudgee with Chris taking in the scenery aboard a Balloon Aloft hot air balloon. The Lowe Wines cellar door is then the setting for a dinner that immerses the PLONK crew in the local Mudgee wine scene with David Lowe leading a wine options game. Johnny Furlong from Two Furlongs Wines makes an appearance and offers to train Chris's palate.
