    TASTING HIGHLIGHTS 9 West Coast Red Blends for Sweater Weather Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and more newly reviewed wines from California and Washington Some of Limerick Lane's vines date to the !rst plantings in 1910. (Richard Knapp) By Augustus Weed Oct 7, 2019 Tasting Highlights' wine reviews are fresh out of the tasting room, o!ering a sneak peek of our editors' most recent scores and notes to WineSpectator.com members. Red blends are red hot these days, with winemakers across the West Coast making both oddball and traditional-style blends from a variety of di"erent grapes, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and everything in between. Today's selection casts a wide net with highly rated wines from California and Washington. Topping the list is a gutsy blend from Limerick Lane [https://www.winespectator.com/wine/search/submitted/Y/search_by/exact/text_search_#ag/winery/winery/Limerick+Lane] . Winemaker Chris Pittenger combined mostly Syrah with Zinfandel and Petite Sirah from the winery's 30-acre estate vineyard in the northeast corner of the Russian River Valley appellation. Alexana [https://www.winespectator.com/wine/search/submitted/Y/search_by/exact/text_search_#ag/winery/winery/Alexana] winemaker Bryan Weil looked farther north to the Columbia Valley in Washington for the supple Gran Rouge. It's a Southern Rhône–inspired blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre that shows how well these grapes complement each other. Eric Kent [https://www.winespectator.com/wine/search/submitted/Y/search_by/exact/text_search_#ag/winery/winery/Eric+Kent] made one of the best values here, using grapes from Mendocino County.

  • Factors Affecting Wine Texture, Taste, Clarity, Stability and Production Efficiency
    Factors affecting wine texture, taste, clarity, stability and production efficiency FINAL REPORT to AUSTRALIAN GRAPE AND WINE AUTHORITY Project Number: AWRI 3.1.4 Principal Investigator: Dr Paul Smith Research Organisation: The Australian Wine Research Institute Date: 22 September 2017 Project 3.1.4 – Factors affecting wine texture, taste, clarity, stability and production efficiency Abstract Wine texture is considered a major product differentiator both for wine style and value in the marketplace. In addition, clarity and colour stability (absence of haze development and the retention of colour) are generally considered to be pre-requisites to market success. Achieving the optimum levels for each of these parameters is often done at significant cost using current technology and does not always ensure the wine will meet its full potential. The ability to modulate these characteristics of wine while retaining the ability to economically process the wine to ensure microbial stability and stylistic integrity is a significant challenge for the wine industry. This project focused on the key compositional drivers behind texture, bitterness, clarity, stability (protein and colour) and wine filterability and developed strategies to modulate them in a production-based environment. Specifically, it covered molecular drivers of taste and texture, ‘smart’ surfaces for efficient production, predicting haze formation, understanding and preventing wine haze, effects of filtering red wines, solids management effects on white wine style and composition, impact of winemaking methods on wine macromolecules and texture, colour development/management and a practical method to determine extractable grape colour and tannin. Executive summary Wine texture is considered a major product differentiator both for wine style and value in the marketplace.

  • Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Or Other Red Wine Grape 1 Gallon Recipe
    Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, or other Red Wine Grape 1 gallon recipe Ingredients: 15 lbs Red Wine grapes 234 SE 12th Ave, Portland, OR 1 Campden tablet (503) 232-8793 www.fhsteinbart.com ½ tsp. Yeast Nutrient ½ tsp. Pectic Enzyme (to release color from skins) 1 packet Red Wine Yeast (Lalvin RC212 or seasonal Red Wine yeast is recommended) Titratable Acidity test kit pH meter or pH test papers 2 gallon primary fermentation bucket 1 gallon glass jug Procedure: Day 1 If growing or picking fruit, you will want to test Titratable Acidity, pH, and ° brix (sugar content) in your grapes before harvest. You want your TA (Titratable Acidity) to be around 6 grams/Liter, pH to be 3.3 to 3.6 and sugar to be a minimum of 22° Brix (or a specific gravity of 1.090). If you are buying pre- picked grapes, test the juice to see where your readings are and to see if you will need to adjust anything later on. Sanitize all equipment (everything that will touch your wine!) Crush and de-stem fruit into primary fermenter (2 gal. bucket) Crush 1 campden tablet and add to must (crushed fruit and juice), along with yeast nutrient, and pectic enzyme. Cover with a loose fitting lid, and let sit for 24 hours. Day 2 After 24 hrs. add yeast and let keep at a constant temperature between 65° F and 85° F. (The cooler temperatures will give you a fruit forward wine while the warm temperatures will give you an earthy “old world” style wine) Day 3 Fermentation will start and the mixture will bubble vigorously.

  • GRAPE MATURITY Section 3. Ph and Acidity Ph and Potassium (K ) for A
    GRAPE MATURITY Section 3. pH and Acidity pH and Potassium (K+) For a discussion and differentiation of pH and acidity, see the chapter entitled “Controlling Microbial Growth in Wines.” Assessments of acidity and pH are used to help define the optimal time of harvest. Both fruit acidity and pH have a significant impact on wine. pH plays a major role in winemaking, affecting the following (Zoecklein et al., 1999): color oxidation rate ability to clarify biological stability protein stability tartrate stability metal complexation sensory attributes Grape Maturity Section 3 Dr. Bruce W. Zoecklein The pH values for white wines may be 3.5 or less. Higher values usually are observed for red wines, largely because of contact of juice and skins before and during fermentation. Changes in fruit pH are complex, and a result of a number of environmental and viticultural management factors. Grapes are very rich in potassium, an essential macronutrient for growth and development. Potassium (K+) is the main cation (positively-charged ion) in must and wine (Blouin and Cruège, 2003). Potassium is absorbed by the roots and distributed to all parts of the vine. Early in the season, when the growth rate is high, much of the K+ accumulates in the leaves. After véraison, a sharp increase in berry K+ is observed as a result of K+ redistribution from leaves to berries (Blouin and Cruège, 2003; Ollat and Gaudillère, 1996). Excessive K+ concentration in the fruit at harvest may result in increases in pH and thus negatively impact potential wine quality, particularly in red wines (Davies et al., 2006).

  • A Beginner's GUIDE to Wine Making
    A Beginner's GUIDE to Wine Making 1. Choose if you want to make wine from juice that you would buy, or if you are going to use your own grapes or fruit. 2. It will be easier to make wine form juice that you would purchase from a winery or other reputable juice producers. 3. DO NOT make wine from the Welch's Grape concentrate that you buy in stores. 4. Making wine from grapes or other fruit will be much harder and take longer, you will also need more equipment to do so. 5. Once you decide which you will do, and the recipe you wish to follow, you are ready to buy the materials that you will need. Making Wine from Juice 1. Put the juice into a clean carboy, add .5 grams per gallon of Potassium Metabisulfite. 2. Check your sugar level with the hydrometer. You should be somewhere around 21 Brix or Balling. If not, add sugar to the wine until your hydrometer reads 21 Brix. 3. If you are going to change the acid of a wine, now is the time to do this. Adding either Potassium Bicarbonate or Calcium Carbonate is used tp drop acid in wine. Where as Acid Blend or Citric Acid is added to raise acid in your wine. (If you buy juice, most of this should already be adjusted for you so this stem may be unneccessary) 4. Add Pectic Enzyme to juice according to package for amounts. 5. Add Yeast Nutrient to juice in reccomended amount. 6. Take the Yeast and get water (about 1/2 a cup per 5 gallon carboy) at about 100 degrees Farenhiet, mix the Yeast into the water along with 1/2 the package of Yeast Starter.

  • Bee & Bramble: a Land of Mead and Honey
    Reap&Eat Bee & Bramble: A land of mead and honey by Frances Nevill he rolling mountains of western North Carolina yield Ta diverse mixture of flora and fauna. The beekeeper benefits from the rich nectar flows that result in a medley of honeys available only in the Appalachians (Sourwood, we’re talking about you!). The making of mead, a wine crafted from fermented honey, is one of the many ways honey can be enjoyed and one “mazer” (the official term for a mead maker), Ivar Schloz of Bee & Bramble Meadery in Fairview, is aiming to change old world perceptions of mead wine. “I was a red wine and beer drinker, but I often got headaches the next morning,” says Schloz. “I tried some mead and really took a liking to it and noticed that… I wasn’t left with a headache the next morning.” Having decades of home brewing experience, Schloz tried his hand at mead making. After sharing it amongst friends while at music festivals, he started getting requests to purchase bottles of his homemade concoction. “People would tell me that they had never tried mead, or if they had, they felt it was too sweet or too mossy tasting—what I call the barnyard flavor,” he recalls. “I aimed for a dry, almost white wine quality, and that is where I started to notice that mead, particularly my recipe, could really be enjoyed by the wine drinker who enjoys a glass or two (or three) of wine a day.” When the economy downturn hit, Schloz, a metallurgical engineer by trade, found himself out of a job and decided to turn to his hobby of mead making into a potential full- 48 | Plough to Pantry | Winter 2016 time business.
