  • Château Vieux Taillefer
    Château Vieux Taillefer Saint‐Emilion Philippe Cohen, originally from Paris, lived in Saint‐Emilion for 10 years working as a négociant. His wife, Catherine, studied oenology and in her second year of the DNO (Diplôme National d’Oenologie) had an opportunity to intern under the legendary Jean‐Claude Berrouet, head winemaker at the famous Château Petrus. Jean‐Claude recognized the talent in his new intern and installed Catherine at the famous La Fleur Petrus where she made the wines from 1995 to 2001. Following the 2001 vintage, Catherine worked as a consultant for many Châteaux in Bordeaux, but she and Philippe dreamed of having their own vineyards. It was Jean‐Claude Berrouet who contacted the Cohens about the Château Vieux Taillefer, as he knew the owner was ready to retire. The tiny 4.8 hectare property is perched on the bank of the Dordogne river, and planted mostly to Merlot, with a little Cabernet Franc, and white varietals too. The estate had mostly old vines planted in the 1950s that had been tended very well, so the potential to do something great was there. The Cohens realized their dream and were able to take ownership just before the 2006 harvest. The couple have approached the Château with a more Burgundian‐type sensibility. They make 2 different red wines that are definied by soil, rather than the old heirarchical system normally empoyed in Bordeaux consisting of a “First” and “Second” wine. All fruit is hand‐ harvested and undergoes a careful sorting before it is vinified in concrete tanks. The work here is 100% organic, thus there are no chemicals used in the vineyards nor the winery.

  • Pinot Pedigree Diagram
    PINOT PEDIGREE DIAGRAM No fewer than 156 western European grape varieties make up this huge pedigree of natural crosses, with savagnin, gouais blanc and pinot playing the major roles. Given the number of varieties that are currently unknown (?), this pedigree is just one of the possible interpretations of all direct parent–offspring relationships that have been discovered by DNA parentage analyses (Pinot and teroldego, which have a grandparent–grandchild relationship, are included to illustrate the unexpected link between Pinot and syrah). It strongly challenges the commonly assumed independent origins of western European varieties and argues in favour of a small core set of founder varieties that have given birth through natural crosses to the significant biodiversity we know today. For the sake of clarity, trebbiano toscano and folle blanche appear twice in the diagram. Gatefold_Pinot.indd 1 23/07/2012 15:10 ? Gänsfüsser ? Chatus ? César ? ? ? Pougnet Sérénèze Furmint ?

  • Jack Keller's Requested Recipes
    Jack Keller began sharing his winemaking insight with the world in 1994 via “The Winemaking Home Page.” Jack was thrilled to gift, free to all, everything he knew about winemaking techniques, insights, and his award-winning recipes. He was a wine judge, writer, blogger, and champion of homemade wines and meads. Sadly, the winemaking community lost Jack on September 13, 2020. A dedicated group of homebrewers scoured the web archives of Jack’s work to compile this book of Jack’s recipes, hoping to preserve them for generations to come. Please enjoy this volume, and in Jack’s honor, pass it on.
