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.

A classic Muscat from Setύbal in Portugal

The Muscat grape variety has always appealed to me, because of two particular attributes, possibly linked. Firstly, the simple one that it is a wine educator’s dream to discuss – we can say to students: “Yes, this is the only major grape variety from which wines generally do smell of grapes”. And secondly, Muscat (in its various genetic forms – and there are many) seems to be extremely flexible in the types of wines it can be used to make ... and that leads me to a tale from many years ago...

Tonight's Affair: The Wait Mendoza Malbec 2007

The Good: Low cost, "easy drinking" wine. If you're looking for a good table wine, or you typically enjoy wines less than $10, this one is for you. It's enjoyable and fun without any of the pretentiousness of other more expensive selections. The Bad: This wine is NOT an example of what Malbec can do. There's none of the fruity, gritty, schweaty qualities that I've come to love in this grape. If you've had a GOOD Malbec, be warned, you will be disappointed. For this and other affairs, check...

1000 and 1 Corkscrews at Corkscrew Museum in Menerbes, Luberon

What would wine be without corkscrews at least until screw tops got mainstream? Fortunately or unfortunately depending on how dexterous you are with a corkscrew ('tirebouchon'), there are still wines with cork to save them from sudden death. In the future when corks might all be a thing of the past, you will always have the Corkscrew Museum to remind you of olden days. To give us a little background here's what I learned from them "The first corkscrews were almost certainly English, although... Read Full Story

Peter Lauer's Riesling "Senior" Fass 6

Here's a little something I've been wanting to try ever since first reading about it at the Mosel Wine Merchant blog . MWM principal Lars Carlberg's writeup goes well beyond describing the wine in question; it also details the history of the pertinent vineyard, maps out its various parcels and even gets into the etymology of the names given to each part of the site. If this is salesmanship, it's salesmanship at its best, and a textbook example of what — along with the regularly featured... Read Full Story

Wine Tasting Cellars – Should they charge?

For most people, the best part of any wine tour is visiting the cellars and tasting the wines, but the experience in Europe is often quite different from that of visiting New World wine regions. The main reason is that most European wineries are small family-owned estates many of whom lack proper facilities for receiving visitors. In the New World, where the average winery size is much larger, tasting rooms are the norm for most and the facilities offered are much greater. Also, if you... Read Full Story

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.
