Bordeaux Wines.Pdf
A Very Brief Introduction to Bordeaux Wines Rick Brusca Vers. September 2019 A “Bordeaux wine” is any wine produced in the Bordeaux region (an official Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée) of France, centered on the city of Bordeaux and covering the whole of France’s Gironde Department. This single wine region in France is six times the size of Napa Valley, and with more than 120,000 Ha of vineyards it is larger than all the vineyard regions of Germany combined. It includes over 8,600 growers. Bordeaux is generally viewed as the most prestigious wine-producing area in the world. In fact, many consider Bordeaux the birthplace of modern wine culture. As early as the 13th century, barges docked along the wharves of the Gironde River to pick up wine for transport to England. Bordeaux is the largest producer of high-quality red wines in the world, and average years produce nearly 800 million bottles of wine from ~7000 chateaux, ranging from large quantities of everyday table wine to some of the most expensive and prestigious wines known. (In France, a “chateau” simply refers to the buildings associated with vineyards where the wine making actually takes place; it can be simple or elaborate, and while many are large historic structures they need not be.) About 89% of wine produced in Bordeaux is red (red Bordeaux is often called "Claret" in Great Britain, and occasionally in the U.S.), with sweet white wines (most notably Sauternes), dry whites (usually blending Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon), and also (in much smaller quantities) rosé and sparkling wines (e.g., Crémant de Bordeaux) collectively making up the remainder.

Agrapart & Fils
SAMPLE CONTENT Overview Agrapart & Fils 57, avenue Jean Jaures Founded in 1894 by Arthur Agrapart, this outstanding estate in Avize acquired much of its present vineyard 51190 Avize land during the 1950s and ’60s, thanks to Arthur’s Tel. 03.26.57.51.38 grandson Pierre. Since 1984 it has been run by Pascal Agrapart and his brother Fabrice, who have taken the Fax. 03.26.57.05.06 domaine to ever-greater heights, emphasizing natural viticulture and the expression of terroir. The Agraparts’ vineyards are spread over 62 parcels, the majority of which lie in the grand cru villages of Avize, Cramant, Oiry and Oger. Average vine age is about 35 years, with the oldest vines in Avize over 60 years. Pascal Agrapart (pictured) is uninterested in be- ing labeled as either organic or biodynamic, but he does feel that it’s important to work according to natural rhythms and sensibilities, and both the vineyard work and the work in the cellar follow this philosophy. No chemical pesticides or weedkillers are ever used, and all of the vineyards are worked manually, encouraging the roots to descend deeper. The Agraparts place great im- portance on the proper technique and timing of pruning to control vineyard maladies, and some homeopathic treatments are also used in the vines to control para- sites. As expected for a Champagne estate that places a strong emphasis on viticulture, the average potential alcohol at harvest is very high here, normally around Status: RM 11 degrees, and Agrapart virtually never chaptalizes Vineyard area: 9.75 hectares any of his wines.

Complex Burgundy Hierarchy the Hierarchy of Burgundy, to Some, Is Considered Complex
With Burgundy en primeur upon us, Decanter has listed the top Burgundy producers, based on the best known and most expensive as a starting point. Look out for all the Burgundy 2014 en primeur tasting notes on Decanter.com later this month. image: http://keyassets.timeincuk.net/inspirewp/live/wp-content/uploads/sites/34/2015/12/Vines- at-Romanee-Conti-630x417.jpg Romanée-Conti vines TAGS:News Home Burgundy is an area in France famous for its world class red and white wines produced from the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. Complex Burgundy hierarchy The hierarchy of Burgundy, to some, is considered complex. Burgundy lovers can struggle to learn firstly the commune or village level wine names, then the Grand Cru vineyards and finally the Premier Cru vineyards. A recent piece by journalist John Elmes, who is currently learning about wine for the first time with the WSET, was in high contrast to the in-depth piece by Benjamin Lewin MW on Burgundian classification. It served as a reminder of the breadth of knowledge needed to understand the Burgundy classification system. Burgundy producer types Due to this complexity, finding your favourite Burgundian producers can be much more fruitful in the long term when purchasing wine. This, once again, is not a simple as it sounds. The Burgundian wine trade is split in two between growers and négociants. This has arisen due to a law attributed to Napoleonic times – the laws of equal inheritance. When applied to the vineyards of Burgundy, over time, it has meant that individual growers may only own a small row of vines.

Beaujolais Master Class
Bon jour! Some background info on me, etc. 1 2 Here ‘s some comp maps showing overall geological formations of France, and a map of the Beaujolais Cru 3 4 5 6 France accounts for almost 2/3 of sales In the US, it represents 9% of all French wine sales: of which half is Beau. Village, ca. 30% Nouveau, 11% Beau or Beau Sup. And 9% Crus 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 The vatting can last even longer up to a month or so, if one is attempting a ‘cru’ style serious wine for aging. 15 Fermentation usually starts within a day for the whole berries, while the slightly crushed fruit/juice at bottom will begin fermenting fairly quickly, before oxygen in tank is depleted. 16 17 Topographically, if one just considered the more limestone, sandy soils, one would think that the southern Beaujolais is pretty flat, but in fact much of it is still quite hilly and beautiful-perhaps more so than some of the Cru areas to the north. 18 19 Some of the Crus are NOT grown on granitic, but often a combo of metamorphic/volcanic soils. What is true is that limestone is generally not good for fine gamay, so no Cru has limestone as a main component. 20 Of course you may think that…I couldn’t possibly comment! (with apologies to the original House of Cards Sir Francis) 21 The 2013 vintage in Beaujolais was late - cool and rainy spring, which delayed flowering-- a summer of high temperatures and sunshine brought hope of reprieve.

VINEYARDS and VITICULTURE Two-Thousand Years of Viticulture Alsatian Viticulture Dates Back to the Roman Empire
VINEYARDS AND VITICULTURE Two-Thousand Years of Viticulture Alsatian viticulture dates back to the Roman Empire. By 58 B.C., Romans had established vineyards in the region. Alsace was part of the heartland of German medieval viticulture, as vineyards followed the spread of religious orders. France gradually annexed the area during the seventeenth century under King Louis XIII and King Louis XIV. The year 1789 brought the French Revolution and with it the first division of Alsace into the départements of Haut-Rhin and Bas-Rhin. Germany reclaimed the region in 1871, but it was returned to France after the First World War. Throughout history, Alsace has been prized for its vineyards and fine wines; its famous “route du vin,” or “wine route,” runs through the heart of its two départements — Bas-Rhin and Haut-Rhin — for 96 kilometers (60 miles) from Marlenheim to Thann, north to south. Varied Terroir of Alsace There are at least 13 major soil formations within Alsace, a mosaic of terroirs that vary depending on their location on the Vosges foothills or on the Rhine valley floor. The higher, steeper slopes of the Vosges have thin topsoil with a subsoil of granite gneiss, sandstone, schist and volcanic sediment. The lower slopes have a deeper topsoil due to erosion from the hills and alluvial sediment brought by the Rhine river, with a subsoil of clay, marl, limestone and sandstone. Drought can be a problem in this region of scant rainfall (Alsace is one of the driest regions in France), and vineyards planted on water-retentive clay soil have the advantage.

Ageability in Riesling
Session 2: Fruit Expression from different Vineyard Sites Ageability in Riesling Factors that influence ageability: • Acid—higher acid will preserve the wine longer (ex: 2009, 2014, 2019) • Sugar—higher sugar in the wine preserves fruitiness • Sunshine during growing season—more sun exposure = Botrytized and other sweet earlier petrol development— Rieslings are the longest-lived. these wines seem to age faster (ex: 2012, 2016) Young or old, the best wine is the one you like best.
