Dr. Vino's wine blog: Grapes of the century (#)

„It knocks wine drinkers out of their groove and forces them to try something different. Certainly as it stands, where tasting notes aren't required and grapes used in blends are allowed, the bar has been set too low for the most hard core of wine geeks. Perhaps Steve and Deborah De Long will add a more advanced Wine Century by country to take advantage of the revival in indigenous grapes in much of the Old World. Or a Wine "CCentury" for the next one hundred grapes.“

„In our Whole Cluster Pinot Noir, we minimize tannin and create a wine that is light bodied and fruity but still reflects the true varietal character of Pinot Noir. To minimize the tannin in the wine, we do not de-stem or macerate the grapes. Instead, the entire bunch-the whole cluster of grapes-is put right into stainless steel fermentation tanks. The grapes remain intact, and the juice remains inside each grape where it does absorb some tannin from the skins.“

„Most Asti sparklers aren™t made by the méthode champenoise, with a secondary fermentation in the bottle, but fermented in batches in tanks. Asti™s fancier cousin Moscato d™Asti is usually produced in small batches with select grapes and is often served in a regular wineglass as opposed to flutes. The fun festive light ruby fizzy, Brachetto, a favorite wine for Italians to sip on Christmas Day, is a light, aromatic grape variety grown most successfully in Italy™s Piedmont region ...“

„Originally, Petit Sirah was probably named so because its grapes had similar characteristics to Syrah in that both can be massive, rich and rustic wines. As one might guess they were probably also petite, and smaller grapes are generally favored by wine makers because they have a higher skin to juice ratio. A great deal of the tannin, flavor and subtle aromas in red wine come from the skin, so during “

„one was about California and how in the next 20 years, with the current trend, the conditions to grow grapes there will no longer exist. In fact, already the alcohol content of most California wines is very high; hotter weather will result in higher sugar content and less water in the grapes. This natural occurrence has advanced to the point where wineries are now investing large sums of money in very expensive “

„The finished wines have beautiful generosity, deep colour, fragrance of red and black fruits, good balance with mellow and elegant tannins. The good natural acidity of the grapes gives to the wine a certain freshness. It is without a doubt a very qualitative vintage, that some compare to 99, and that inscribes itself in the same line than its predecessors : 2003, 2004 and 2005.“
