  • Forbidden Fruits: the Fabulous Destiny of Noah, Othello, Isabelle, Jacquez, Clinton and Herbemont ARCHE NOAH, Brussels and Vienna, April 2016
    Forbidden Fruits: The fabulous destiny of Noah, Othello, Isabelle, Jacquez, Clinton and Herbemont ARCHE NOAH, Brussels and Vienna, April 2016 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Noah, Othello, Isabelle, Jacquez, Clinton and Herbemont are six of the wine grape varieties whose turbulent history in Europe begins with the invasion of the vermin Phylloxera (Viteus vitifoliae) in the 19th century. Because of their natural resistance to Phylloxera, these varieties from North American breeders or from spontaneous crosses, were imported, amongst others, and used to counter the plague. Common strategies were to use breeds based on North American species as rootstocks to which European Vitis vinifera varieties were grafted, as well as to use them in longer term resistance breeding programs, primarily to infuse their resistance into Vitis vinifera. These varieties were, however, also directly planted in winegrowers’ fields. This particular practice gave them the name “direct producers” or “direct producer wines”. The term came to cover native American species as such (Vitis aestivalis, V. labrusca, V. riparia, V. rupestris), but also the first generation hybrids obtained from interspecific crossings, either with each other, or with the European common species Vitis vinifera, all the while maintaining their resistance to Phylloxera. Today, direct producer varieties are grown in several European countries, and wine is still produced from their harvest. Strangely though, the planting of some of them for the purpose of wine production is forbidden. Indeed, in the course of the direct producer’s 150-year history in Europe, first national, and then European laws have adopted a dramatically restrictive and unfairly discriminatory approach to certain direct producers and to hybrids, beginning mostly from the 1930s.

  • Alternative Oregon
    SUNDAY SCHOOL’S WINE BUYING GUIDE: ALTERNATIVE OREGON ______________________________________________________________________________ There are 80+ grape varieties grown in Oregon. One of those is Pinot Noir—and that accounts for 57% of production. So, what else is out there? Some are familiar grapes like Chardonnay and Gamay (but in smaller quantities than you’d think), while others are little-known varieties such as Trousseau or Saperavi. Cool, eh? Our guide focuses on the more obscure, but we realize that if you’ve never heard of it, you’re not going to know what it tastes like, let alone if you’ll like. So, we’ve made note of some starting point grapes so you can continue your adventure from there.
