Since then, each year we have published 4 quarterly issues of Fine Wine in both Swedish and English. Anne-Marie always at the ready with the camera on all the trips and meetings with interesting winemakers around the world, and myself with the tape recorder con- stantly present and with an increasingly intense interest in what is happening in the wine world, not least regarding investments in various beverage auctions where sales only increased for each year that has passed. We have had very good cooperation with all the large auction houses, which OVE CANEMYR we are naturally very grateful for. Editor-in-Chief Fine Wine –the on-line Magazine For the Swedish edition, we have had a very good cooperation with the Swedish importers, Sys- in a glass of its own! tembolaget, various trade organizations and others, as well as all the wine producers around the www.FineWine.nu world that we had the pleasure to visit and get to know more closely, something that we will, of course, miss a lot in the future. But we hope and think that we will see everyone again, maybe at a tasting somewhere at least. We still have the camera and pen ready for the next time. As I said, time goes by quickly when you’re having fun. As of 2006, we have published 52 issues of Fine Wine and Fine Wine International in both Swedish and English. All of these are and will con- tinue to be available at www.finewine.nu, under ARCHIVE (ARKIVET), which is in the text under the four most recently published Fine Wine magazines, clickable as usual and completely free of charge. A piece of wine history available to those interested. Anne-Marie and I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of our friends and wine journalists who have contributed and written articles for us and participated in various tastings for Fine Wine over the years. And of course, another big “thank you” to our talented translator who has converted the content into English for our dedicated international readers. Last but not least, we thank Sophie Slettengren. Without her fantastic artwork, Fine Wine Interna- tional would not have been so beautiful. Finally, Anne-Marie and I would like to give a big hug to all of our faithful readers who have followed us over the years, and wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Decade 2020.

The is called the ”Green Fibre Bottle.” Carlsberg recently unveiled new research prototypes of “Green Fibre Bottle,” the world’s first paper bottle con- taining beer. The bottle is mainly made of durable wood fiber. The prototypes have a thin plastic film inside that consists of recycled plastic, called RPET, which allows the bottle to meet the high standards required to con- tain beer. The long-term goal is for the entire bottle to be bio-based. The prototypes were presented during the C40 Worlds Mayors Summit 2019 in Copenhagen, where representatives of the world’s largest cities meet to discuss how to meet climate change. SUCCESSFUL PREMIERE OF THE NEW COMPETITION MUNDUS VINI NORDIC Publishing house Meininger and Wines of Germany promote export efforts for German winegrowers. Scandinavia has grown into one of the most important export markets for German wines, which has inspired Meininger and Wines of Germany (Deutsche Wein Insti- tute, DWI) to jointly institute the competition MUNDUS VINI NORDIC. The judges in the competition have been chosen almost exclusively from the Scandinavian countries to ensure that the winning wines reflect the taste of the Scandinavian consumers. For two days in mid-June, a panel of 53 jurors gathered in Copenhagen. The panel consisted of wine journalists, sommeliers, wine merchants, importers and key per- sons within the Nordic alcohol monopoly. A total of 660 wines from 200 different German producers were tested to select the best German wines in 11 different cat- egories. The jury’s well-executed work, careful analysis and careful selection yield- ed results, and the premiere of the first MUNDUS VINI NORDIC was a real success.

Statement of Principles It is important that readers understand how I collect and evaluate the information that is reported in the pages of Burghound.com (the tasting notes and information are the sole responsibility of the author). • I am personally responsible for all of my business expenses without exception. This includes airfare, hotels and effectively all of my meals. The purpose is as clear as it is simple: No conflicts of interest. I do not accept nor do I seek any subsidy, in any form, from anybody. • Sample bottles are accepted for evaluation and commentary, much as book reviewers accept advance copies of new releases. I insist, however, that these sample bottles represent the final wines to be sold under that particular label. • Finished, bottled wines are assigned scores as these wines are market-ready. Wines tasted from barrel, however, are scored within a range. This reflects the reality that a wine tasted from barrel is not a finished product. • Wines are evaluated within the context of their appellations. Simply put, that means I expect a grand cru Burgundy to reflect its exalted status.

  • Addendum Regarding: the 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, As Published by the Society of Wine Educators
    Addendum regarding: The 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, as published by the Society of Wine Educators This document outlines the substantive changes to the 2021 Study Guide as compared to the 2020 version of the CSW Study Guide. All page numbers reference the 2020 version. Note: Many of our regional wine maps have been updated. The new maps are available on SWE’s blog, Wine, Wit, and Wisdom, at the following address: http://winewitandwisdomswe.com/wine-spirits- maps/swe-wine-maps-2021/ Page 15: The third paragraph under the heading “TCA” has been updated to read as follows: TCA is highly persistent. If it saturates any part of a winery’s environment (barrels, cardboard boxes, or even the winery’s walls), it can even be transferred into wines that are sealed with screw caps or artificial corks. Thankfully, recent technological breakthroughs have shown promise, and some cork producers are predicting the eradication of cork taint in the next few years. In the meantime, while most industry experts agree that the incidence of cork taint has fallen in recent years, an exact figure has not been agreed upon. Current reports of cork taint vary widely, from a low of 1% to a high of 8% of the bottles produced each year. Page 16: the entry for Geranium fault was updated to read as follows: Geranium fault: An odor resembling crushed geranium leaves (which can be overwhelming); normally caused by the metabolism of sorbic acid (derived from potassium sorbate, a preservative) via lactic acid bacteria (as used for malolactic fermentation) Page 22: the entry under the heading “clone” was updated to read as follows: In commercial viticulture, virtually all grape varieties are reproduced via vegetative propagation.

  • The Buyer's New Zealand Wine Debate
    The Buyer’s New Zealand Wine Debate In association with: The Buyer’s New Zealand Debate Setting The Scene Arguably New Zealand’s most successful exports over the last 10 years have been its rugby players and the growing reputation of its wine. Whilst the former have gone on to be World Champions in both 2011 and 2015, the country’s wines have enjoyed similar global success with export sales up 236% since 2006. A jump from 57.8 million litres in 2006 to 213m litres this year. The total tonnage of grapes crushed is also up 136% to 436,000 from 185,000 in 2006 (New Zealand Winegrowers). Such has been the popularity of New Zealand wine that anyone who invested in the sector over the last year 10 years would have seen their earnings double with an average yearly growth of 8.5%. But that does not necessarily mean all is fine and dandy in the land of the long white cloud. Whilst its wine sales have boomed in the UK over the last 10 years it has done so in two very distinct and different markets. On the one hand there is big box office New Zealand. The market buyers and consumers flock to every year for the latest mass volume, easy drinking, well-loved wines that fly off supermarket shelves and mainstream casual dining and pub wine lists. Then there are the more independent cinema, art house releases from New Zealand. These are rather less well known, and rely on a small, but loyal audience. It is arguably this second market which truly reflects the unique style and diversity of wines being made in New Zealand, in both its north and south islands.

  • Bob Campbell MW
    THE ANDRÉ L SIMON LECTURE 2019 Presented by Bob Campbell MW on Sunday 10th March in the Stamford Plaza Hotel, Auckland, New Zealand “Development of New Zealand Wine Industry 1954, when the Auckland branch was formed, to present day” THEN (1954) In 1957 New Zealand produced 2.7 million litres of wine, 85% of which was fortified – today production is more than 100 times that volume. Back then it was difficult to enjoy wine with a restaurant meal. Michael Cooper said ‘The custom was to smuggle in a bottle and hide it under the table. Some restaurants took the wine away and decanted it into soft-drink bottles in case of a police raid.’ I recall enjoying a 15-year-old Penfolds St Henri Claret in coffee mugs! The breweries had control over wine sales and the hotel restaurants, to keep their liquor license, were obliged to serve food, but the restaurants had to be closed by 8 o’clock, and many closed as early as 6pm - these were dark times. I can remember I worked for a brief time in a wine bar in London doing my Overseas Experience (OE) when a very elegant English gentlemen customer and I began chatting away, and he asked me if I was a New Zealander and I said yes. I asked ‘Have you been to New Zealand?’ and he said, ‘Oh yes, only once. Not a happy experience actually.’ He then explained he was on the way to Australia, and had a stopover in Christchurch, and he had asked for an early morning call so he could meet his flight.
