  • Hatton Daniels​|​Ros​É​ of Dornfelder
    Hatton Daniels|Rosé of Dornfelder ​ ​ ​ ​ Mokelumne Glen Vineyard |Mokelumne River AVA ​ ​ The Story: This is a true story of expecting to kiss a frog and ​ finding beautiful wines and great people. Hatton Daniels is a tiny Napa winery working with unusual varietals: Dornfelder, Blaufränkisch, Zweigelt, and Malvasia Bianco, in addition to Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon. Dan Fishman is the winemaker, who in 2007 worked at Calvert Woodley Fine Wine & Spirits in DC. He makes some of the most interesting California wines we have tasted in a long time. Production ranges from 25-115 cases so there is not much to go around, but they are worth seeking out. Vineyard: Mokelumne Glen Vineyard in Lodi, CA. Viticultural ​ ​ practices include cane pruning (seldom used in the Lodi area) and expanded vertical trellis, and a dual irrigation system utilizing the most favorable benefits of both drip and sprinkler. Grapes harvested prior to full maturity for fresh rose acidity. Vinification: Clusters were pressed directly after harvest, ​ squeezed very gently, only using about 60% of the total potential juice to ensure light color and delicate flavors. The wine was then fermented with native yeast in old oak barrels, and ultimately transferred to a used 500L puncheon for aging. Malolactic fermentation was prevented in order to preserve the beautiful, fresh acidity. Ageing: Aged 3 months in barrel. ​ ​ Everything else you want to know about this wine: The wine was bottled without fining or filtration. For this ​ reason it often throws a sediment, or even so-called “wine-diamonds,” the crystals of tartaric acid that form when the wine is chilled.

  • Riesling Originated in the Rhine Region of Germany
    Riesling Originated in the Rhine region of Germany 1st mention of it was in 1435 when a noble of Katzenelbogen in Rüsselsheim listed it at 22 schillings for Riesling cuttings Riesling comes from the word “Reisen” means “fall” in German…grapes tend to fall off vines during difficult weather at bud time Riesling does very well in well drained soils with an abundance of light, it likes the cool nights. It ripens late so cool nights are essential for retaining balance Momma and papa Parentage: DNA analysis says that • An aromatic grape with high Gouais Blanc was a parent. acidity Uncommon today, but was a popular • Grows in cool regions wine among the peasants during the • Shows Terroir: sense of place middle ages. The other parent could have been a cross of wild vines and Traminer. Riesling flavors and aromas: lychee, honey, apricot, green apples, grapefruit, peach, goose- berry, grass, candle wax, petrol and blooming flowers. Aging Rieslings can age due to the high acidity. Some German Rieslings with higher sugar levels are best for cellaring. Typically they age for 5-15 years, 10-20 years for semi sweet and 10-30 plus years for sweet Rieslings Some Rieslings have aged 100 plus years. Likes and Dislikes: Many Germans prefer the young fruity Rieslings. Other consumers prefer aged They get a petrol note similar to tires, rubber or kerosene. Some see it as fault while others quite enjoy it. It can also be due to high acidity, grapes that are left to hang late into the harvest, lack of water or excessive sun exposure.

  • How to Buy Eiswein Dessert Wine
    How to Buy Eiswein Dessert Wine Eiswein is a sweet dessert wine that originated in Germany. This "late harvest" wine is traditionally pressed from grapes that are harvested after they freeze on the vine. "Eiswein" literally means "ice wine," and is called so on some labels. If you want to buy eiswein, know the country and the method that produced the bottle to find the best available "ice wine" for your budget. Does this Spark an idea? Instructions 1. o 1 Locate a local wine store or look on line for wine sellers who carry eiswein. o 2 Look for a bottle that fits your price range. German and Austrian Eisweins, which follow established methods of harvest and production, are the European gold standard. However, many less expensive, but still excellent, ice wines come from Austria, New Zealand, Slovenia, Canada and the United States. Not all producers let grapes freeze naturally before harvesting them at night. This time-honored and labor-intensive method of production, as well as the loss of all but a few drops of juice, explains the higher price of traditionally produced ice wine. Some vintners pick the grapes and then artificially freeze them before pressing. Manage Cellar, Share Tasting Notes Free, powerful, and easy to use! o 3 Pick a colorful and fragrant bouquet. Eiswein is distinguished by the contrast between its fragrant sweetness and acidity. A great eiswein is both rich and fresh. Young eisweins have tropical fruit, peach or berry overtones. Older eisweins suggest caramel or honey. Colors can range from white to rose.

  • Spätburgunder, Baden, Germany *Pinot Noir - Rare & Amazing German Gem for Pinotphiles
    Retail Savings $32.99 $54.00 39% 2013 Claus Schneider Weiler Schlipf product-timed-pdf - Spätburgunder, Baden, Germany *Pinot Noir - Rare & Amazing German Gem for Pinotphiles Why We're Drinking It For those who love classic Pinot Noir and those who mistakenly believe all German wine to be white—and sweet. This James ‘Special Selection’ discovery hails from Germany’s southern spa region of Baden, where Pinot Noir has been grown perhaps even longer than in Burgundy and with equally electrifying results! Burgundy lovers will applaud this premium German Pinot, grown in Baden’s most heralded escarpment Weiler Schlipf. The terroir here is rich in clay and limestone, and ideal for Pinot Noir of exceptional purity and verve. Schneider’s ‘CS’ refers to the proprietor’s initials and signifies the reserve wine from this estate. As such, grapes are picked later when riper compared with Schneider’s regular Spatburgunder, and the wine is treated to a touch more aging in barrique. Never filtered, this wine is bottled with all of its character and complexity intact, and is a stylish, sleek Pinot Noir that left our Tasting Panel breathless. Weiler Schlipf is pretty much the most southernmost vineyard in all of Germany and luckily for all of us, it is in the hands of a master winemaker. This is for Pinot fans of all stripes and any red wine drinker looking to broaden their palates and horizons. Reasons why we love it: Pinot Noir is known as Spatburgunder in Germany, and it is grown in all of Germany’s 13 wine regions.
