A community portal about Wine with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Wine is an alcoholic beverage produced by the fermentation of the juice of fruits, usually grapes. Although a number of other fruits - such as plum, elderberry and blackcurrant - may also be fermented, grapes are naturally chemically balanced to normally ferment completely without requiring extra sugars, acids, enzymes or other nutrients. Non-grape wines are called fruit wine or country wine. Other products made from starch based materials, such as barley wine, rice wine, are more similar to beers. The English word wine and its equivalents in other languages are protected by law in many jurisdictions.

Bornard, Reynard and Discipline

When last I was in the borough of Manhattan, after ramen , after doughnuts , after wines from the Cher , after meeting Kermit , finally there was time to get down to more serious business (aka, more wine and food) at The Ten Bells . Over the course of the night, there was much talk of the Arbois wines of Annie and Philippe Bornard. I'd first tried one of the Bornards' wines in the same spot, not more than a few months earlier , and I enjoyed it, very much as a part of the moment rather than... Read Full Story

Why Wine: Joeshico Wine Review; Fulkerson Winery Dornfelder 2007

From:  whywineblog.com
This has been one fantastic year of enlightenment for me when it comes to all things wine. Believe I may do a year end article on the subject. If I do, I will have to include the German grape, Dornfelder as one of the highlights. Dornfelder is a cross between Helfensteiner and Heroldrebe grapes. It is the 3rd most planted red wine grape in Germany. In the Finger Lakes region it is very scarce, only two wineries grow Dornfelder and Fulkerson Winery is the only varietal wine producer. Color is... Read Full Story

Paris Tour d'Argent wine auction takes million euros

From:  afp.com
A wine auction from the cellar of Paris' famed Tour d'Argent restaurant fetched more than one million euros, surprising organisers who said Tuesday the bids were higher than expected. The famous Left Bank restaurant sold off 18,000 wines and cognacs from its four-century-old cellar to make space for new bottles during the two-day auction. The star attraction was a 1788 Clos du Griffier cognac that sold for 25,000 euros (37,000 dollars). The final figure for the sales was to be released later... Read Full Story

Loose Unit of Wine Lovers with no credibility whatsoever

From:  tizwine.com
Craig, Mark, Ross, Sarah, Will, Melanie, Jay, Kate and David have just voted six Hawke’s Bay wines as their Wines of the Year for 2009. No they’re not the new cast of FRIENDS (although that was a good guess), they are in fact the group of writers behind the Kiwi Wine Fan Club website, a self-proclaimed “loose unit of wine lovers” and “wannabe wine writers” who’s only qualifications are “the fact that we have tastebuds”. But what they lack in ambition and credentials, they make up for... Read Full Story

Decanting Wine: An Expensive Waste of Time?

If the real purpose of decanting is to filter out the "crud" from the rest of the wine, why do so many people waste their time decanting bottles of wine that don't have sediment? I think that you should always taste the bottle of wine before decanting or manipulating it in any other way. Only if I feel it will ADD anything to the experience, will I EVER decant my wine. This begs the question: Should a good bottle of wine NEED to be decanted or are we just snobbishly infatuated with geeky... Read Full Story

How Do Sauvignon Blanc Clones Differ?

  This week two groups hosted a meeting to discuss progress in the Sauvignon Blanc trial evaluating 12 FPS clones growing in Lake County. Kelseyville, Calif. -- Sauvignon Blanc vineyards planted in California are perhaps the least diverse in terms of clonal selections in use among the major grape varieties. Even though the number of registered Sauvignon Blanc clones has increased to 22 selections at the University of California-Davis’ Foundation Plant Services (FPS) during the... Read Full Story
