  • Addendum Regarding: the 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, As Published by the Society of Wine Educators
    Addendum regarding: The 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, as published by the Society of Wine Educators This document outlines the substantive changes to the 2021 Study Guide as compared to the 2020 version of the CSW Study Guide. All page numbers reference the 2020 version. Note: Many of our regional wine maps have been updated. The new maps are available on SWE’s blog, Wine, Wit, and Wisdom, at the following address: http://winewitandwisdomswe.com/wine-spirits- maps/swe-wine-maps-2021/ Page 15: The third paragraph under the heading “TCA” has been updated to read as follows: TCA is highly persistent. If it saturates any part of a winery’s environment (barrels, cardboard boxes, or even the winery’s walls), it can even be transferred into wines that are sealed with screw caps or artificial corks. Thankfully, recent technological breakthroughs have shown promise, and some cork producers are predicting the eradication of cork taint in the next few years. In the meantime, while most industry experts agree that the incidence of cork taint has fallen in recent years, an exact figure has not been agreed upon. Current reports of cork taint vary widely, from a low of 1% to a high of 8% of the bottles produced each year. Page 16: the entry for Geranium fault was updated to read as follows: Geranium fault: An odor resembling crushed geranium leaves (which can be overwhelming); normally caused by the metabolism of sorbic acid (derived from potassium sorbate, a preservative) via lactic acid bacteria (as used for malolactic fermentation) Page 22: the entry under the heading “clone” was updated to read as follows: In commercial viticulture, virtually all grape varieties are reproduced via vegetative propagation.

  • EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN WINES: GREECE, TURKEY and LEBANON Greek Wine Turkish Wine
    EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN WINES: GREECE, TURKEY AND LEBANON Greek wine Greece is one of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world. Greek wine had especially high prestige in Italy under the Roman Empire. In the medieval period, wines exported from Crete, Monemvasia and other Greek ports fetched high prices in northern Europe. A system of appellations was implemented to assure consumers the origins of their wine purchases. The appellation system categorizes wines as: • Onomasia Proelefsis Anoteras Poiotitos (O.P.A.P. ), i.e. an Appellation of Origin of Superior Quality • Onomasia Proelefsis Eleghomeni (O.P.E. ), i.e. a Controlled Appellation of Origin • Topikos Oinos , i.e. a Vin de pays • Epitrapezios Oinos , i.e. a Vin de table • Epitrapezios Oinos , regular table wine which usually comes in screw-top containers • Cava , more prestigious, aged "reserve" blends (minimum aging: 2 years for whites; 3 years for reds) • Retsina , a traditional wine, flavored with pine resin • The Wine regions Main wine growing regions of contemporary Greece are: Aegean Islands, Crete, Central Greece, Epirus, Ionian Islands ,Macedonia and, Peloponnese Varietals Xinomavro, a variety native to Greece and often compared to Nebbiolo due to its ability to develop complex earthy aromas with age, has the potential to unlock Greece’s full potential, according to its winemakers. A healthy bunch of Xinomavro . The heartland of this high tannin, high acid grape, whose name translates to “acid black”, lies in north west Greece, which is home to two PDO regions for Xinomavro, Amyndeon to the north and Naoussa further south. Greek winemakers in both regions have reaped success outside of Greece by blending Xinomavro with international varieties such as Syrah or Merlot to make them more marketable, however a belief that the industry’s future lies in further promoting the region’s indigenous grapes, so that they may stand alone, prevails.

  • Greek and Cypriot Grape Varieties As a Sustainable Solution to Mitigate Climate Change
    GREEK AND CYPRIOT GRAPE VARIETIES AS A SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION TO MITIGATE CLIMATE CHANGE Stefanos Koundouras* School of Agriculture, Aristotle University, 54124, Thessaloniki, Greece *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Aim: The aim of this report is to present evidence on the potential of Greek and Cypriot grape varieties to serve as a sustainable solution to mitigate climate change. Methods and Results: The work provides a review of recent works involving Greek and Cypriot varieties’ performance under high temperatures and increased dryness. Conclusions: Climate change could threaten the existing balance between local environmental conditions and vitivinicultural production systems over the majority of wine producing areas. The subsequent decrease in the suitability of the current winemaking regions will require, apart from short-term adjustments in vineyard management, the adaptation of plant material by the use of late-ripening and drought resistant varieties and clones. Greek and Cypriot grape cultivars appear to grow well under dryland conditions, and additionally they mature their crop later than most of the well-established international varieties. However limited evidence exists regarding the direct effects of high daytime temperatures and drought especially on the quality of their grapes. This information would greatly assist grape growers in improving cultivar selection and adjusting management decisions. Significance and Impact of the Study: Indigenous grapevine varieties of the semiarid viticultural regions of Greece and Cyprus have received much less attention compared to other grapes native to Mediterranean areas and therefore deserve to be better studied as a sustainable solution in the context of climate change. However, substituting existing varieties will change the “identity” of (mainly) European wine appellations, therefore the effectiveness of any strategy depends on both the willingness of grape growers and consumers to accept new varieties and also on the flexibility of current legislation.
