  • 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.

  • Have Some Madera, M'dear
    HAVE SOME MADERA, M’DEAR Story and photos by John Blanchette Quiet lanes flow through the Madera Wine Trail It was the July 4th weekend and I was headed into the Central Valley to visit Madera County and one of California’s oldest wine growing areas. The San Joaquin Valley can be blistering hot this time of year and I certainly wasn’t disappointed. Temperatures soared to 105 degrees. As my car drove on Route 99, slicing through this wide, flat and fertile plane that stretches over 200 miles between Bakersfield and Stockton, crops and livestock passed my window like an expanded grocery market. Table grapes, sugar cane, corn, tomatoes, citrus, peaches, plums, apricots, strawberries, watermelons, pistachio, pecan, Cattle range in the shadow of Giant Eucalyptus www.aiwf.org SAVOR THIS • OCTOBER 2010 15 almond, pomegranate and walnut trees, pigs, cattle, sheep, and dairy cows, etc. in abundance. One farmer told me that the topsoil is unlimited and all they need is water to grow their crops. And that’s a major problem. The current draught has caused some farmers to let their fields go fallow. The city of Madera, located 38 miles from the geographic center of California, derives its name from the Spanish word for wood, which was harvested in the Yosemite Valley foothills and shipped from Madera to build San Francisco and other area communities in the 1800s. The Madeira wine produced on the Portuguese Vineyards run to the mountains island made famous by the bawdy English tune I was off to confirm this as I explored the Madera “Have Some Madeira, m’Dear” is just a coincidence.

    guide to AustriAn Wines AUSTRIAN WINE WITH ASIAN CUISINES Discover EuRope’S Best Kept Secret! Austria is home to some of the most famous musicians in the world: Mozart, Schubert, Strauss, Liszt and others. It also offers a rich cultural heritage, the Imperial Palace in Vienna, palaces and castles around the country – all situated in one of the cleanest environments that also has the clearest waters, right in the centre of Europe. Welcome to Austria! We would like to invite you to Austria, enjoy our culture and relax in the city or in the mountains. Austria can offer so much. We are especially proud of our wine industry, which has more than a few thousand years of history. Today, it is also one of the most dynamic wine industries in the world. Situated at the same latitude as Burgundy in France (47-48°north) we are able to produce one of the finest white and most elegant red wines of the world. Besides international grape varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and more… we are also extremely proud of our own indigenous varieties – Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Rotgipfler, Zweigelt, St. Laurent and Blaufränkisch. Due to our climate and the varieties, our wines are amazing food companions with many dishes. This includes classical European cuisine as well as most of the Asian dishes, whether from China, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia or other countries in the region. Many restaurants in Singapore have discovered these unique wines and have introduced a good range of our national treasures in their wine lists.

  • Reviewed by Stephan Reinhardt, Issue Date 31Th of January 2020, the Wine Advocate
    Reviewed by Stephan Reinhardt, Issue Date 31th of January 2020, The Wine Advocate EVA FRICKE SCHLOSSBERG Riesling I Rating QbA 94P From party ungrafted vines that are at least 80 years old, the 2018 Lorcher Schlossberg Riesling is fascinatingly pure, fresh and flinty on the spicy, almost peppery and crunchy nose with its intense lemon, lime zest, herbal, radish, mustard and sweet fennel seed as well as floral notes. What lovey fruit concentration! Lush and generous on the palate, this is a beautifully intense and elegant, rich and persistently salty Riesling with a very long and linear finish. A great wine! 11.5% alcohol. Tasted from AP 8 19 in June 2019. EVA FRICKE SCHLOSSBERG Spätlese I Rating 94P The 2018 Lorcher Schlossberg Riesling Spätlese is coolish, precise and flinty on the more reductive and lime-scented nose than its Klosterberg sibling. Lush yet crystalline and salty-piquant on the palate, this is a generous, enormously lush and super sexy Spätlese with succulent fruit that covers your palate. There are 90 grams of residual sugar, but there is nothing left but gorgeously ripe Riesling fruit from rocky slate. A fabulous Spätlese bottled with 8% alcohol. Tasted from AP 9 19. You can drink it now, but don't be sad if there is nothing left in 20+ years. EVA FRICKE KLOSTERBERG Riesling I Rating Auslese 94P From 100% healthy but late-picked grapes (3rd week of October) Fricke's 2018 Kiedricher Klosterberg Riesling Auslese is precise and piquant on the nose, wonderfully concentrated, with lemon, grapefruit and woodruff aromas as well as super ripe white-seed fruit aromas.

  • SYBILLE KUNTZ Weingut 2019 Mosel-Riesling Kabinett Trocken
    SYBILLE KUNTZ Weingut Hugh Johnson Pocket Wine Book 2020: “Progressive individual organic estate at Lieser especially Niederberg-Helden vineyards. Intense wines, one of each ripeness category, intended for gastronomy, listed in many top restaurants.” 2019 Mosel-Riesling Kabinett trocken Alcohol 13,0 Vol%, Residual sugar 6,6 g/l, Acidity 7,3 g/l. General: Kabinett is the basic wine in the superior quality wine category (Qualitätswein mit Prädikat) defined by the German Wine Law. It is gained mainly from old vines farmed according to biodynamic principles in the Pauls Valley, a side valley formed by the River Mosel some thirty-five thousand years ago. Today it is part of the single vineyard site Lieser Schlossberg. The heat is collected here like in a parabolic mirror. The soil is 100% blue devonian shale and adds particular mineral notes into the wines. We cultivate a spontaneous cover crop to grow in the rows which keeps useful and harmful creatures in a natural balance. Low yield is assured through the pruning of the vines to 8–10 buds/vine. At the end of June, shortly after blossom, manual shoot thinning is done as well as removal of leaves and secondary shoots in the grape zone. This results in light-weight, small-berried grapes perfectly exposed to the sunrays. Total yield amounts to 40 hl/ha, which is about a bottle of Riesling per vine. What is important for the timing of the harvest is to reach physiological ripeness in mid-October, with sugar readings of around 100° Oechsle (Specific gravity 100° = 1,100 kg/l or 24,0° Brix).

The grape is early ripening and as a result has typically lower sugar levels at harvest, which producers lower alcohol wines. This wine is perfect for Cabernet Sauvignon drinkers who want lighter wines during the summer. It has all of the flavor components of Cabernet Sauvignon without the full tannins. This wine is great for grilling burgers and hotdogs or with Flank steak. Ryan Patrick Red – Columbia Valley, Washington (Mixed & Red Club) $11.99 This red is a blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 4% Malbec, and 1% Syrah. It is a blend typical of Columbia Valley which is known more for Bordeaux varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. In fact Columbia Valley and Bordeaux are on roughly the same longitude, which means they have some similar climactic traits. Like Bordeaux, Columbia Valley is known for a more rounded style of red wine compared to the sun drenched wines of Napa Valley. This blend has a smooth texture with raspberry and dark cherry flavors, and has a dry, fruity finish. I like this wine with a slight chill to bring out the fruit. Calina Carmenere Reserva – Valle del Maule, Chile (Mixed & Red Club) $10.99 Carmenere has become the varietal of choice from Chile.
