  • Have Some Madera, M'dear
    HAVE SOME MADERA, M’DEAR Story and photos by John Blanchette Quiet lanes flow through the Madera Wine Trail It was the July 4th weekend and I was headed into the Central Valley to visit Madera County and one of California’s oldest wine growing areas. The San Joaquin Valley can be blistering hot this time of year and I certainly wasn’t disappointed. Temperatures soared to 105 degrees. As my car drove on Route 99, slicing through this wide, flat and fertile plane that stretches over 200 miles between Bakersfield and Stockton, crops and livestock passed my window like an expanded grocery market. Table grapes, sugar cane, corn, tomatoes, citrus, peaches, plums, apricots, strawberries, watermelons, pistachio, pecan, Cattle range in the shadow of Giant Eucalyptus www.aiwf.org SAVOR THIS • OCTOBER 2010 15 almond, pomegranate and walnut trees, pigs, cattle, sheep, and dairy cows, etc. in abundance. One farmer told me that the topsoil is unlimited and all they need is water to grow their crops. And that’s a major problem. The current draught has caused some farmers to let their fields go fallow. The city of Madera, located 38 miles from the geographic center of California, derives its name from the Spanish word for wood, which was harvested in the Yosemite Valley foothills and shipped from Madera to build San Francisco and other area communities in the 1800s. The Madeira wine produced on the Portuguese Vineyards run to the mountains island made famous by the bawdy English tune I was off to confirm this as I explored the Madera “Have Some Madeira, m’Dear” is just a coincidence.

  • 2008 Maréchal Foch Signature
    2008 MARÉCHAL FOCH SIGNATURE Tasting Notes: We just love making this French-American hybrid grape into wine. Calling this a “Signature” vintage is our way of telling you that it is one of our very finest. This estate wine bursting with flavors of black current, plum & spice, ends with a complex lingering finish. It’s great with roasts in the winter and rich pasta dishes in the summer. Sue recommends pairing it with Sausage and Zucchini Lasagna from allrecipes.com. Winemaking: Maréchal Foch (MAHR-shahl FOHSH) or just Foch, is one of two hybrid grapes we have planted at the estate, Dunn Forest Vineyard. The fruit was gently de- stemmed by a Euro Select into 1.5-ton fermenters leaving a very high whole berry content. A three to four day cold soak proceeded inoculation done with a variety of yeasts designed to increase complexity and mouth-feel. Fermentations were punched down twice a day for ten days with temperatures peaking around 90°F. The wine was racked via gravity directly to barrel. The skins were shoveled into the press and allowed to drain before pressing creating both free run barrels and pressed wine barrels. After 9 months in American oak barrels the wines were racked to tank for blending and bottled in September 2009. Harvest Notes: 2008 started out a little scary with snow in April but ended with a beautiful Indian summer producing well-balanced wines. A cold dry spring seemed to have little effect on bloom, it occurred mid-June and we had beautiful fruit set. Timely August and September rains along with a warm October made for an excellent ripening season.

  • FAMILLE LIEUBEAU Muscadet Cru Goulaine the ESTATE Granite Rock Was Used for Centuries to Build the Massive Fortresses That Dot the Landscape of Muscadet
    FAMILLE LIEUBEAU Muscadet Cru Goulaine THE ESTATE Granite rock was used for centuries to build the massive fortresses that dot the landscape of Muscadet. Its density and structure were rarely breached by arrow, cannonball, or the good ‘ole medieval siege. Because of its density and the fact that it is everywhere in Muscadet, its unclear why anyone would think that this was the place to plant hectares and hectares of vines. The Romans might have gotten a few things wrong in France, but they did get something right: they planted vines on this lunar rock of a landscape. Today, this area is called Muscadet and is home to over 8,000 hectares of Melon de Bourgogne. Famille Lieubeau farms over 40 hectares of vines and produces both Muscadet Sèvre et Maine and Vin de Pays from grapes such as Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Regardless of the varietal, the vines are planted on rock, and in most cases, sheer cliffs of rock through which the roots have to bury for meters for any hydric source. The vines, and the wines, are fed by water that is awash in wet rock. It’s not a big shock that the wines smell and taste more like rock and minerals than fruit or flowers. Combine this with the cold Atlantic breezes and you’ve got an amazing cool climate, high cut, precise bottle of white wine. The Lieubeau family takes great care to vinify the wines according to exposition, density of granite, and harvest date. Farming for their Folle Blanche, Chardonnay and Sauvignon is certified by Terra Vitis and all of their Melon is now certified organic by Agriculture Biologique.

The landscape mingles with the vines and cereal crops – an ever-changing canvas of colour: intensely green towards the end of winter, the colour of straw at the end of spring, and deep ochre during the final months of summer. 1 All over the Alentejo there are archaeological markers suggesting that wine has Historybeen an important part of life up to the present day. Whilst it is not known exactly when wine and viticulture was introduced to the Alentejo, there is plenty of evidence that they were already part of the day-to-day life in the Alentejo by the time the Romans arrived in the south of Portugal. It is thought that the Tartessians, an ancient civilisation based in the south of the Iberian Peninsula and heirs of the Andalusian Megalithic culture, were the first to domesticate vineyards and introduce winemaking principles in the Alentejo.

  • Training Systems for Cold Climate Hybrid Grapes in Wisconsin
    A4157 Training systems for cold climate hybrid grapes in Wisconsin A. Atucha and M. Wimmer Cold climate hybrid grape cultivars (e.g., ‘Marquette’, ‘Frontenac’, ‘La Crescent’, ‘Brianna’, etc.) differ from European grape (Vitis vinifera) cultivars in several respects and require separate consideration with regard to the most appropriate training system. This publication focuses on aspects to consider when choosing a training system for cold climate hybrid grapes. Introduction Choosing a training system The training of grapevines refers to the physical action of The choice of an adequate training system will be influenced by manipulating a vine into a particular size, shape, and orientation. the following factors. The main objectives of training grapevines are to: 1. Maximize the interception of light by leaves and clusters, Cultivar growth habit Cold climate hybrids have a broad range of growth habits from leading to higher yield, improved fruit quality, and better procumbent (or downwards) to upright, and the choice of training disease control; system should adapt to the growth characteristic of the cultivar. 2. Facilitate pruning, canopy management, harvesting, and Cold climate hybrid cultivars with procumbent growth adapt well mechanization of the vineyard; to training systems that have downward shoot orientation such 3. Arrange trunks, cordon, and canes to avoid shading between as high wire cordon (HWC) (figure 1) or Geneva double curtain vines; and (GDC) (figure 2). 4. Promote light exposure in the renewal zone (i.e., spurs or heads) to maintain vine productivity. FIGURE 1. High wire cordon (HWC) is a downward FIGURE 2.
