And that is what it has been doing since it began in 2006, in Marbella (Andalusia). However, since then, many emblematic cities in Spain and the United States have hosted this important contest. TRAVELLING CINVE A G R A N D INTERNATIONAL MEETING For wines, vinegars, vermouths, spirits, extra virgin olive oils, sakes, shochus and ciders. CINVE’2021 is a prestigious international wine and spirits contest, officially acknowledged by the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food. CINVE’2021 Virgin Extra Olive Oil has become one of the most important international contests in the world, with international jurors, mainly from Portugal and Italy. The International Sake and Shochu contest, after the success of the first edition held in the city of Cáceres and the award ceremony in the residence of the Ambassador of Japan, has become the number one contest of this type in Spain and the third most important in Europe. CINVE’2021 Cider, Vermouth and Vinegar continues its progress, structured as independent contests with their own jury. CINVE is one of the most acknowledged contests worldwide due to the importance of its prestigious jurors, from all continents of the world, and because it brings together the principal producers of wine and spirits, olive oil, sake and shochu, and now ciders and vinegars.

  • Fortified Wine Production
    BEGINNER FORTIFIED WINE PRODUCTION Content contributed by Kimberly Bricker, Imperial Beverage Material contained in this document applies to multiple course levels. Reference your syllabus to determine specific areas of study. Wine was originally fortified, or strengthened, to better sustain itself during the journey to those importing it. The addition of brandy or neutral grape spirit would kill off the yeasts, which are constantly in the process of converting sugars to alcohol. Once the alcohol by volume reaches 16-18%, yeasts die. The remaining sugars are never converted into alcohol, and the natural sugars of the wine persist. Wines can be fortified at various stages in their fermentation, sweetened or colored with a variety of techniques. Different grape varietals can be used. Grapes can be dried. Wines can be boiled and reduced, cooked, aged in a solera, or aged in a boat that travels halfway across the world and back. They can be enjoyed immediately or aged for over 200 years. Port, Sherry, Madeira, Marsala, Malaga, Montilla-Moriles, and Vin Doux Naturels (VDN’s) are all Fortified Wines. Most people think of stuffy British old men drinking out of little glasses in a mahogany Sherry library with their pinkies out when they “Oh I must’ve been a dreamer think of Sherry- if they think of Sherry. And I must’ve been someone else While that image may have relegated Sherry, as an old-fashioned wine, to the And we should’ve been over back of the cool class, that is only part of Oh Sherry, our love the picture. Both Christopher Columbus Holds on, holds on…” and Ferdinand Magellan filled their ships ‘Oh Sherry’ by Steve Perry with Sherry when they set sail to discover the New World.

This focus is very important for analysis of statistical data. Indeed, industrial use of wine represents on average around 12% of total wine production. With the term industrial use of wine we consider a transformation of wine, such as distillation, modification of compounds, acetic fermentation, or integration in other products. The global balance sheet of production and consumption of wines shows every year a surplus, which is attributed to industrial use of wine. This study seeks, for the first time, to confirm this assumption and to estimate the volume of wine used to make the different industrial products derived from wine.

  • Preparation of an Edible Fruit Based Alcoholic Beverage and Fortification with Specific Household Nectar
    Swati Ray et al /J. Pharm. Sci. & Res. Vol. 13(6), 2021, 347-350 Preparation of an edible fruit based alcoholic beverage and fortification with specific household nectar Swati Ray1*, Suborna Goswami1, Tuhina Das1, Tuhin Rakshit1, Abhay Kumar Thakur1, and Sourav Das1 1Department of Food Technology, Haldia Institute of Technology, ICARE Complex, Hatiberia, Purba Medinipore, West Bengal. India. Pincode: 721657. * [email protected]. Abstract: Fruit based fermented alcoholic beverages are made from a variety of fruits as the base material, also sometimes referred to as fruit wine. In a broader sense, fruit wine can be made from virtually any plant matter that can be fermented. Most fruits have the potential to produce wine; however only few fruits other than grapes have the balanced quantities of sugar, acid, tannin, nutritive salts for yeast feeding and water to naturally produce a stable and drinkable wine. Aim: In our current study, the alcoholic beverage has been produced by using tamarind (Tamarindus indica) as substrate and fermentation was carried out by inoculating suitable yeast culture. Method: The Fermented beverage was tested for different parameters after which it was fortified using honey; to increase its nutritional qualities and palatability. The organoleptic acceptability of this fortified beverage was assessed by using a group of panelist on the basis of five point hedonic scale. Result: The experiment revealed that drink number 9 is the most acceptable one among the panelists. Conclusion: Further tests can be done for scale up and enhancing the characteristics of this beverage. Keywords: Alcoholic beverage, Fermentation, Fortification, Fruit wine, Honey, Nectar.

  • The Ideal Aperitif: Good Vermouth, Cool and Fragrant - the New York Times
    2/27/2020 The Ideal Aperitif: Good Vermouth, Cool and Fragrant - The New York Times https://nyti.ms/2rwiRF6 THE POUR The Ideal Aperitif: Good Vermouth, Cool and Fragrant By Eric Asimov May 18, 2017 One summer evening a few years ago, I was standing in the Napa Valley kitchen of Steve Matthiasson, a farmer and winemaker, when he handed me a tumbler filled with amber liquid and a fat cube of ice. It was not what I was expecting from Mr. Matthiasson, who, with his wife, Jill Klein Matthiasson, makes a range of wonderfully pure and refreshing wines from both the expected grapes like cabernet sauvignon, merlot and chardonnay, and from Napa rarities like refosco and ribolla gialla. Instead, this drink was sweet yet brisk, fresh and floral, fruity and herbal, and, surprisingly, it was thoroughly refreshing. While the sweetness was undeniable, it was not at all off-putting, as I would have imagined in a pre-dinner beverage. It was a sweet vermouth, made by the Matthiassons, balanced not by acidity, as it would be in wines like sweet German rieslings or Vouvrays, but by a slight, gentle bitterness, which had none of the force of a powerfully head-clearing digestif like Fernet Branca. It was barely noticeable yet insistent, just a genial note reminding me I was hungry. The drink ($30, 375 milliliters) served as my introduction to real vermouth and sent me on a path of rethinking the French term aperitif. The meaning would seem to be fairly obvious: An aperitif is something to drink before a meal to stimulate the appetite.
