DETNEWS | Wine Report | Sandra Silfven on Wine -- The new Longview Winery in Leelanau will have California attitude (#)

„"To learn all the things that I had to learn without a mentor would have been very difficult," he said, paying tribute to neighbor Elmer Calchik, who took him under his wing. Eaker signed up Shawn Walters from nearby Leelanau Cellars to be a consulting winemaker, and will open with a dozen wines -- a mix of European vinifera and hybrid blends, all estate-grown, except for the cherry wine, cherry port and sparkling apple wine made with Calchik's fruit ...“

Wait I missed some really good winery blogs!!! (#)

„The  Winery Website Report where many of these came from also has a blog.   They are certainly right to note that the lack of blogs among the zillions of wineries out there is quite amazing.  I hope this trend changes as the more I know about a winery, its commitment to its particular land and the people behind the label, the more likely I am to buy their wine ...“

Dr. Vino's wine blog (#)

„As if that weren't enough to bring the downtrodden French winemakers to his side, he added, "promised to protect French wine producers, vowing to bar from the market imported wines which fail to match the domestic wines' quality." Whoa, Nico. While lifting the advertising restrictions is a good thing, who would be the Senior Minister for Wine Quality?“

„To top it off, another study (also in Nature magazine) just reported that the compound in red wine that provides cardioprotective action has been identified. Scientists believe that oligomeric procyanidins in red wines are responsible for heart health benefits.

The set up was very nice with Joyce of Charles Chocolates bringing a vast array of sweets while Randy lined up an interesting set of wines and ports.

Local fruit wines (#)

„For all fans of Rosenblum's San Francisco Bay Zinfandel -- the grapes come from Contra Costa County, by the way, as do at least two other wines in their portfolio -- the 2005 has a lovely mix of chocolate and dark fruit and a continued testament of the quality of local grapes. However, my takeaway zin was the 2004 Annette's Reserve. It was gorgeous, with a lot of black tea tannins.“

Willamette Valley Vineyards (#)

„At home an open bottle of wine will be fine for up to 4 days, be it red or white. Port wine, according to our Winemaker Forrest Klaffke, will be fine for up to a month. In my home I have kept open port wines for a year and have found them to still be delightful.“

Woot Wine : One Week, One Wine (#)

„Whites are whole-cluster pressed and barrel-fermented, for aharmonious complexity akin to a symphony; reds are barrel-aged,rack-clarified, and filtered minimally or not at all. Oak is used withcare, to support the wine but not to dominate it. After all, if youwant to drink something that tastes like wood, you can always throwsome twigs in a juicer.“
