WINE Talk: October 2016
Licence No 58292 30 Salamanca Square, Hobart GPO Box 2160, Hobart Tasmania, 7001 Australia Telephone +61 3 6224 1236 [email protected] www.livingwines.com.au WINE Talk: October 2016 The newsletter of Living Wines: Edition 65 Since the last newsletter we have travelled to Melbourne and Geelong to conduct wine tastings and also to Sydney to attend the high-energy Mental Notes event which, this year, was held at the Paddington Town Hall – an excellent venue for an event of this type. We also joined with a number of our other colleagues from this event to hold a trade tasting at The Bentley Bar and Restaurant on the Monday following Mental Notes. We are now gearing up for the other two major events on the natural wine calendar – Rootstock in Sydney and Soul For Wine in Melbourne. We are delighted that both Tony and Philippe Bornard will be attending Rootstock this year. To celebrate their visit we will be holding two very special events. The first will be a late lunch in Hobart at Franklin Restaurant and the second will be a dinner at the wonderful Bar Brosé in Sydney which will be cooked by Analeise Gregory as described below. And now to the special packs. We have a rather long story on the Côte de Beaune and a 6 pack of wines selected from that region of Burgundy. We have a special dozen comprised of wines that include very rare grape varieties that we like to seek out from the hidden corners of France. There is a pack of wines from our winemaker of the month, namely Domaine les Grandes Vignes from the Loire Valley. -

Vinodhan Veloo Wolfhart Knipp
By Vinodhan Veloo Head Sommelier & Wolfhart Knipp Assistant Sommelier The wines argon be alright! The Coravin® was introduced to the world in 2004 by American inventor Greg Lambrecht. He had set out to create a device that would allow its user to have a glass of wine from a bottle without ever opening it, keeping the rest of the wine from deteriorating. With a background in the medical technologies sector and also nuclear engineering, Lambrecht was well equipped in approach- ing such a task. The Coravin® works by driving a medical-grade needle through the cork of the bottle and then injecting 99.9% pure argon gas. The pressure created by the buildup of gas in the bottle forces the wine out through the Coravin®. Once the wine is served, the needle slides back out and the cork closure will re-seal itself. The inert nature of the argon gas in the bottle keeps the wine protect- ed from deterioration and is good to hold for even a few years! We use the Coravin® to access all the wines that we serve by-the- glass, as well as the wines on our pairing. We are confident that every glass of wine we serve to you will be as good as the first one! Beverage Pairing Mostly Mavericks WINE Go on a little journey around the world with our sommeliers who will showcase wines from lesser-known parts of the world, made with mostly in- digenous grape varieties. The wines of this flight are all by artisanal and boutique winemakers who have come from various backgrounds to produce wines of the highest quality, with also the highest regard for the environment and traditions. -

Wine Talk: August 2013
Licence No 58292 30 Salamanca Square, Hobart GPO Box 2160, Hobart Tasmania, 7001 Australia Telephone +61 3 6224 1236 [email protected] www.livingwines.com.au Wine Talk: August 2013 The newsletter of Living Wines: Edition 38 This month we have seven special packs for you, including two packs of hard-to- find magnums that we have in stock. There are only a few of the magnum packs so we expect them to disappear quite quickly. We have been watching the stocks of Domaine de l’Octavin and Mylène Bru, which arrived recently disappearing out the door. We are also pleased to announce the imminent arrival of another new producer – this time from the Roussillon area close to the Spanish border. We have been lucky to be able to offer the fascinating wines from Jolly Ferriol who produce interesting white and red wines as well as traditional lines such as Muscat de Rivesaltes. They also do a great Pet Nat of which we will receive good stocks and a very rare rancio of which we’ll have hardly any stocks! But back to the Special Packs. The first is from our most recent arrivals from Domaine de l’Octavin in the Jura and Mylène Bru in the Languedoc. These wines (especially the Octavin) are in very short supply so this is probably the only opportunity for our newsletter subscribers to try some of their offerings. We have also put together a six pack that features the Grenache grape with some very interesting wines showing the many facets of this grape variety. -
Vitis International Variety Catalogue \(VIVC\)
BIO Web of Conferences 5, 01009 (2015) DOI: 10.1051/bioconf/20150501009 © Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2015 Vitis International Variety Catalogue (VIVC): A cultivar database referenced by genetic profiles and morphology Erika Maul and Reinhard Töpfer Julius Kühn Institut, Institut für Rebenzüchtung Geilweilerhof, 76833 Siebeldingen, Germany Abstract. The establishment of the Vitis International Variety Catalogue (VIVC) dates back to 1984. The idea was to virtually assemble all accessions maintained in the worldwide existing collections to face genetic erosion. In many cases synonymy, homonymy and misnaming hampered the clear assignment of cultivars/accessions to prime names. In the past 15 years nuclear microsatellites, in particular the nine SSR-markers VVS2, VVMD5, VVMD7, VVMD25, VVMD27, VVMD28, VVMD32, VrZAG62 and VrZAG79 were extensively applied for cultivar recognition in combination with ampelography. Genetic fin- gerprints of more than 15,000 cultivars/accessions were collected. They were taken from more than 300 articles and from microsatellite databases on the web. Allele sizes were adapted according to own internal reference varieties. Comparison of profiles revealed new identities like: “Corbeau” = “Sevilhao”, “Gragnelut” = “Fer”, “Beretinjak” = “Bianco d’Alessano”. The activities aim to equip the prime names of VIVC with reliable genetic profiles combined with the validation of their identity by ampelography. Fingerprints from 1,500 cultivars were already uploaded in VIVC. Two distinct search modules were imple- mented: “Microsatellites by varieties” and “Microsatellites by profiles”. The implementation assists the management of grape- vine genetic resources, e.g. trueness to type assessment in grapevine collections and serves research and breeding. Due to the large anthropogenic spread of grapevines it is 1. -

Wine Talk 58 January 2016
Licence No 58292 30 Salamanca Square, Hobart GPO Box 2160, Hobart Tasmania, 7001 Australia Telephone +61 3 6224 1236 [email protected] www.livingwines.com.au WINE Talk: January 2016 The newsletter of Living Wines: Edition 58 Welcome to the first Wine Talk newsletter for 2016. We are looking forward to a busy year ahead with the beautiful wines made from the exciting 2015 harvest starting to arrive over the coming months. This month we have a short feature about one of our long-term suppliers Stéphane Guion from the Loire Valley. His wines often slip under the radar due to their low price, but they are very well-made wines made from Cabernet Franc. There is no special offer because the wines are offered at such a low price, but it is a good chance to buy a dozen which we will ship freight free. We have seven special packs for you this month. We have decided to create a mixed 12 pack again this month with a 20% discount and free freight due to the amazing reaction to last month’s special offer. The rest of the packs have a 15% discount. We have a special Gamay 6 pack with wines from Beaujolais and from the Loire Valley. We are also featuring the wonderful sparkling wines created by “petillant naturel” specialist Les Capriades. We follow these up with a 3 pack of Magnums and a 3 pack of lovely Champagnes, all from the same producer but from different plots and made with different grapes. We also have assembled a pack of reds that are perfect for drinking chilled. -
The Top 25! One of the Joys of the Top 25 Is That We Can Make It Whatever We Want It to Be
The Top 25! One of the joys of the Top 25 is that we can make it whatever we want it to be. In essence it remains a catch-all category, where the showcase can and often is wide, far-reaching, and thus meant to demonstrate the breadth of distinctive, keenly-priced options out there – the hard rule here is the sub-$10 price point. Nonetheless, a few selections this time around crossover from our Spring programs – Northern Italy and Roses – with the roses at least a theme we will continue going forward with throughout the summer. That being said, wines from Washington, California, Spain, South Australia, South Africa, and even Georgia’s own Chateau Elan fill out the rest. CHATEAU ELAN Sparkling Wine NV Green’s Cash Sale Price: A 100% Chardonnay Brut NV from north Atlanta’s very own Chateau Elan, employing the Charmat method – the bubbles are induced via secondary fermentation in tank, as opposed to the individual bottles of the Champagne method – of Prosecco fame. The wine itself is analogous – crisp and refreshing, and ideal as both an aperitif by itself or as the sparkling wine component of a cocktail calling for it. DANZANTE Pinot Grigio 2014 Green’s Cash Sale Price: A textbook northern Italian-style Pinot Grigio from the Tre Venezie IGT. Light-bodied, with delicate fruit notes of pear, green apple and citrus peel complement the crisp acidity and mineral finish – for many a Pinot Grigio drinker, this is THE style of Pinot Grigio. DOUGLAS GREEN Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 Green’s Cash Sale Price: A 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from one of South Africa’s first “negociants”, the fruit here is sourced from the Swartland & Robertson regions of the country’s southwest corner.
