    Bill Daley Bonjour, roussanne! Say hello to a great white wine you've probably never heard of Published October 19, 2005 October's falling temperatures and crisp nights trigger a hunger in all of us for richer, heartier fare. There is no better time for a glass of roussanne. This white wine grape from France's Rhone Valley has the gumption to tackle fall's sturdy fare just like a chardonnay, but without leaving you feeling like you've just gnawed through an oak tree. While its style can vary depending on the country and the maker, roussanne is classically reserved and minerally, but with a charming floral bouquet. Chances are, however, that roussanne is the best white wine you've never heard of. It is hugely overshadowed by sauvignon blanc, pinot grigio and, above all else, chardonnay. "I can't think of a white grape that's less hot right now," said Diana Hamann of Wine Goddess Consulting. "And it's a shame, as roussanne can be a champion among whites with its peachy-honeyed hedonism and snappy acidity." Hamann said that most American wine drinkers interested in Rhone wines stick to the reds. The only white to catch on in the U.S. has been viognier. That's reflected in the requests fielded by Randolph Wine Cellars. Jason Given, store manager, said that Chicago drinkers in experimental moods have been asking for more Rhone-style whites but not roussanne specifically. Roussanne is one of four white grape varieties that can be blended into the red wines of Chateauneuf- du-Pape.

  • Insider's Guide to Chicago
    The NIRI-Chicago Insider’s Guide to Chicago April 2015 Welcome to Chicago for the NIRI Annual Conference. In our opinion, there’s no better place to spend a few summer days. Our chapter has compiled suggestions to help you make the most of your time before/after the conference and after the day’s events conclude. This is very much an idiosyncratic view – our personal opinions rather than a comprehensive guide – so we’ve included links to online resources for additional information. We’re biased toward nearby locations, so distances (from Google Maps) are mostly based on walking versus driving. In addition, feel free to ask advice of our chapter members during the conference . we’ll be wearing NIRI-Chicago buttons.

  • Newcity Resto Dining and Food Culture in Chicago
    Newcity Resto Dining and food culture in Chicago The Big Heat: Chicago’s Food and Drink Fifty 2015 Posted by Jan Hieggelke Newcity’s Big Heat 2015 represents a thick slice of Chicago’s culinary culture: butchers and cheese mongers, restaurateurs, critics, even some sommeliers and chefs. This year, however, we’re focusing less on people at the stove and more on the people behind the stove. These are the men and women who set the standard, change the game, initiate food movements, re-imagine what it means to have dinner in Chicago—and perhaps most importantly, help fill our lives with exponentially more deliciousness. Some of their names will be very familiar, others will be entirely unfamiliar, and they’re all just some of the personalities who are critically shaping the way we eat in Chicago. Just some. Just a slice of a large and growing community of leaders in Chicago food culture. Apologies if we missed a few of your favorites, which we undoubtedly have. There are many more who could easily have been on this list, which only overviews the immense range of enthusiasm, creativity and talent that decisively influences the food served to us in restaurants, in retail stores and on the streets of Chicago, which stands among the major food capitals of the world, thanks in good measure to the following fifty. (David Hammond) Big Heat 2015 was written by David Hammond, J’nai Gaither, Rebecca Holland, Lauren Knight, Rosemary Lane and Anthony Todd Cover and interior photos by Joe Mazza/Brave Lux on location at Seven Lions Alpana Singh/Photo: Joe Mazza/BraveLux 1 Alpana Singh Master Sommelier and Owner, The Boarding House and Seven Lions After receiving Master Sommelier certification, Alpana Singh led wine seminars at a California wine store, an experience she credits with giving her the composure and focus to speak to audiences of both professionals and laypeople.

In fact, of the 30,000 edible plant species that exist, just four account for around 60% of our calories. What many people don’t realize is that we’re losing food diversity every day. If we’re going to sustainably produce enough nutritious food for 9 billion people by 2050, we need to conserve and share all food diversity. Most of us are fortunate to eat three times a day. That’s three opportunities we have to decide which foods to consume, where to source them, and which establishments to support. By demanding more diverse foods, we can provide the foundation for a nutritious and resilient food system.
