  • Old World, New World, Third World? Reconceptualising the Worlds of Wine
    Journal of Wine Research, 2010, Vol. 21, No. 1, pp. 57–75 Old World, New World, Third World? Reconceptualising the Worlds of Wine GLENN BANKS and JOHN OVERTON Original manuscript received, 08 April 2009 Revised manuscript received, 18 November 2009 ABSTRACT This paper argues that existing categories defining the geography of the world’s wine industry, principally the Old World/New World dichotomy, are flawed. Not only do they fail to represent adequately the complexity of production and marketing in those two broad regions but also, crucially, they do not acknowledge the significant and rapidly expanding production and consumption of wine in ‘Third World’ developing countries. Rather than argue for the addition of a ‘Third World’ category, we instead use the lens of recent work on globalisation to argue that such production requires us to re-examine the dichotomous Old/New distinction which structures much of the thinking around the global wine industry. It also requires us to more closely link changes in patterns of global wine consumption with developments in global production. Changing geographies of wine production have been driven, to a large extent, by the rapid expansion of both local wealthy elites and burgeoning middle classes in countries such as China and India. This has resulted in the development of local wineries, large and small, throughout the developing world. It has also seen new flows of investment both from established wine regions to these new sites of production and from companies and individuals in the developing world who have invested in established wine regions, whether in France or Australia.

  • Aldiploma Module Seven
    Aldiploma Module Seven New World Wines & Upcoming Classics Module 7 New World Wines & Upcoming Classics New World Classics and Up & Coming Classics The previous six modules of the Aldiploma provided all the groundwork you need to make shopping for your wines easier and more enjoyable than ever. We covered off the basics of different wine types and styles, grape varieties, white and red winemaking, classic wines and also other types of wine. Now that you know what is in your glass and why you like it, we’re going to explore New World wines. We’re also going to take a little look at some up-and-coming wine regions – those less well-known areas that are producing some outstanding wines at incredible value, if you just step off the beaten track… New World Wines The classic winegrowing regions of Europe and the Middle East are often referred to as the ‘Old world’. Essentially anything grown outside of this area is referred to in the wine world as the ‘New world’. New World wines include (but are not limited to) wines from the USA, as well as a lot of countries in the Southern Hemisphere, including Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Argentina and Chile. When they first appeared on the international wine scene, these wines were a breath of fresh air. Firstly, the often sunny, warm climates meant the wines were soft, round, approachable and easy-to-drink but secondly, the labels were easier to understand. These new winemakers chose to label their wines by variety, meaning the grape variety is stated quite clearly on the label whereas for the majority of classic ‘Old World’ wines, they are labelled by region.

  • The Candela Family Know Their Way Around the Yecla DO and Its Native Grapes, Having Founded the Señorio De Barahonda Winery In
    Carro The Candela family know their way around the Yecla DO and its native grapes, having founded the Señorio de Barahonda winery in 1925 (the oldest in the region) and handing down their artisan spirit through four generations. They live with the conviction that good wine is made in the vineyard, and their estate is farmed accordingly. Their 340 hectares (840 acres) are planted on sandy limestone soils and farmed organically, using no additional irrigation despite the extremely dry climate. Here, gnarly-looking Monastrell vines stand their ground against the scorching summer days and freezing winter nights, occasionally soothed by a westerly Mediterranean breeze. Carro Tinto is completely unoaked, making it unapologetically juicy, bright, and eager for a sunny day by the grill. It complements the power of Monastrell with smaller proportions of Syrah, Merlot, and Tempranillo, making a wine that is both rich and approachable. In a word, Carro is the best introduction one can taste from the extreme vineyards of Yecla. WHAT MAKES THIS WINE UNIQUE?: Limestone-rich soils and only estate-owned grapes. The amount of care and the quality of the grapes that go into Carro are unparalleled in the region and the same used for more exclusive Barahonda cuvées. 100% unoaked. Carro is made using a Rhone-like blend that balances the earthiness of Monastrell and makes it extremely approachable: a perfect bridge for new world wine lovers looking to dip their toe into Spanish wine. RATING HISTORY: 2019 90JS, 90VM; 2018 90JS; 2016 90JS; 2015 90VN; 2014 90RP GRAPE: 50% Monastrell, 20% Syrah, 20% Merlot, 10% Tempranillo.

  • Wine Is the Fermented Juice of Grapes Sugar + Yeast = Alcohol + Carbon
    Wine Basics What is wine? Wine is the fermented juice of grapes Sugar + Yeast = Alcohol + Carbon Dioxide (CO²) The sugar is in the grape juice and the yeast is present on the grape skins and in the air Fermentation ends when the alcohol reaches around 15% Three major types of wine • Table wine: 8-15% alcohol • Sparkling wine: 8-12% alcohol + CO² • Fortified wine: 17-22% alcohol (All wine fits into at least on of these categories) (Table wine is all that concerns us today) New World vs. Old World New World wine regions (California, Australia, Chile) usually list the grape variety on the label Old World wine regions (France, Italy, Spain) list the region, village or vineyard where the wine is made, but usually not the grape What's a vintage? As grapes ripen, their acidity decreases while their sugar increases Grapes are picked when they reach the sugar/acid ratio for the style of wine they’re to produce The “Vintage” is the year that the grapes were harvested In the Southern Hemisphere, the seasons are reversed Northern Hemisphere harvest is between August-November Southern Hemisphere harvest as early as January-March The Winemaking process Freshly picked grapes are sorted De-stemmed and crushed Placed into a vat with (red) or without skins (white) Fermentation occurs (4- 20 days) Pressed Barreled and aged Filtered and bottled What kind of grapes make wine? The major wine grapes come from the species Vitis vinifera Both old world (Europe) and new world (America) wine producers use Vitis vinifera The Native American grape species (Vitis labrusca) is still grown in the U.S.

  • New World Wines
    Dear Wine for Funners As the initial lockdown passes and easing of restrictions continues, I’m not sure that we should be trying to regain the ‘normal’ that we took for granted, but rather, despite the uncertainty, embrace the changes to come. We have the opportunity to explore a new way of being, a new ‘norm’. In that vein, in with the new … New World wines The classification was originally based on geography with Europe and Mediterranean countries being the Old World and the New World being represented by the countries that they then colonised such as Australia, Chile, New Zealand, South Africa, Argentina and the USA. These new winemakers were able to experiment unencumbered by the constraints of tradition and rules and regulations. Over time these two contrasting approaches have established a middle ground where the New world producers are increasingly adopting the better aspects of tradition, and the Old World have taken on board the technical innovations pioneered by the New World. In the last quarter of the 20th century global exports of wine from the New World rose from 3% to 23% of the total. In 2020 New World producers account for six out of the ten top producers in terms of volume: Italy 4,796,600 tonnes Spain 4,607,850 tonnes France 4,293,466 tonnes United States of America, 3,300,000 tonnes China 1,700,000 tonnes Argentina 1,498,380 tonnes Chile 1,214,000 tonnes Australia 1,186,343 tonnes South Africa 1,146,006 tonnes Germany 920,200 tonnes Portugal 603,327 tonnes Romania 378,283 tonnes Greece 334,300 tonnes Russia 327,400 tonnes New Zealand 320,400 tonnes Brazil 273,100 tonnes Hungary 258,520 tonnes Austria 199,869 tonnes Serbia 198,183 tonnes Moldova 149,850 tonnes [worldpopulationreview.com] Initially New World wines reflected a tendency to showcase the qualities of the different varieties rather than relying on those traditionally associated with geographic regions and techniques.

  • 2017 Estate Red Mountain Malbec Tech Sheet PDF
    VINEYARDS 2017 ESTATE RED MOUNTAIN MALBEC RED MOUNTAIN ORIGINALS In 1975 our family planted the first vineyard on Red Mountain, an area now known for producing some of the world’s most powerful, opulent wines of distinction. For three generations we’ve worked together on our farm to grow exciting, vineyard-driven wines that capture the essence of Red Mountain. VINEYARD PROFILE We have just 2.55 acres of Malbec planted at our estate Heart of the Hill vineyard on Red Mountain. The varietal thrives here, producing wines of uncommon depth and complexity. The fruit is highly sought after by Washington winemakers for its strong varietal typicity and opaque coloration. WINE PROFILE Malbec has recently been “discovered” by the new world wine-drinking public as a superb stand-alone cultivar for fruit-forward, dark, approachable wines with lots of depth. This certainly holds true on Red Mountain, where plantings are relatively young but already exhibiting a lot of character. A small Cabernet Sauvignon compo- nent—also from Heart of the Hill—adds layering and tannin. VINTAGE NOTES STATISTICS Heat accumulation in 2017 tracked slightly APPELLATION // lower than the extreme highs during 2016 100% Red Mountain AVA, 100% Estate Grown and Bottled and 2015, and a wet spring resulted in higher VINEYARD SOURCES // overall precipitation when viewed from an 100% Heart of the Hill annual perspective. The long, warm summer VARIETAL COMPOSITION // was prototypical for the area, resulting in 87% Malbec, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon delightful wines with strong varietal typicity. CASE PRODUCTION // 386 cases, 12 x 750 mL, Bottled February 2020 pH // 3.8 TA // 5.03 g/L ALCOHOL // 14.5% “This just might be a pretty damned good place to grow wine grapes.” - JOHN WILLIAMS, CIRCA 1970.

  • Wine Industry in Argentina Unique Terroir + Tradition + Freedom to Innovate = Extraordinary Wines to Meet Global Market Needs Photo: Carlos Calise
    INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES Wine Industry in Argentina Unique Terroir + Tradition + Freedom to Innovate = Extraordinary wines to meet global market needs Photo: Carlos Calise. Courtesy of Wines of Argentina Highlights >> A GLOBAL OPPORTUNITY The international wine market has continued to develop over the years. Consumers have become increasingly sophisticated and enthusiastic about new varieties and fl avors. World consumption is expected to grow 6% over the period 2008-2012, driven by new consumers in high potential markets such as the United States, China, United Kingdom, Russia, Brazil and Japan. In world markets, the so-called New World producers are coming on strong with a growing share of global exports. In this context, Argentina has a unique opportunity being both part of the New World as a key wine exporter in the global market and of the Old World thanks to its long-term tradition in wine production. Argentina combines terroir, expertise and freedom to innovate and is rapidly unleashing all its potential to meet global market needs. >> GROWTH POTENTIAL The Argentine wine industry was transformed during the past decade. Growth and modernization positioned the country as a key global player. Today it is both one of the largest domestic markets and one of the main global exporters. But it is poised for more: wine exports grew 29.0% in 2008 alone. Dynamic players and innovation continue to improve the industry’s prospects, yielding endless possibilities along the way. During the fi rst four months of 2009 glass-bottled wine exports continued to increase and were up 8.7% in volume notwithstanding the global economic downturn.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] A Documentary of Innovation Support Among New World Wine Industries Abstract During the past two decades, the international wine industry has undergone a ‘seismic shift’. Old World producers no longer dominate production, export and marketing of wine to the extent that they once did. Instead, New World producers such as California, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand have successfully married production, management, marketing and innovation to emerge as a new force on the global wine landscape. It is the innovation supports within these selected New World industries that this paper seeks to document, in order to highlight different approaches and outcomes and how they may or may not contribute to an innovative culture.
