  • You Have to Work to Find Them, but Swiss Wines Are Well Worth the Chase
    Food Perspective You have to work to find them, but Swiss wines are well worth the chase The terraced vineyards in the Valais region in Switzerland. (Patricia von Ah/Swiss Wines) By Jason Wilson March 15 Switzerland is well known for many things: Swiss chocolate, Swiss watches, Swiss cheese, secret Swiss bank accounts. But Swiss wine? Most people don’t even realize there is such a thing. The Swiss certainly don’t make a whole lot of wine, only about a million hectoliters — a drop in the bucket compared with France’s 42 million or Italy’s 48 million hectoliters. And Switzerland only exports about 2 percent of its wine. By comparison, Italy and Spain each export about half of the wines they produce. So according to just about any metric, Swiss wines represent the height of obscurity. And since 40 indigenous grape varieties grow in Switzerland, including whites like petite arvine and amigne to reds like humagne rouge and cornalin — what better place for someone who is obsessed with enigmatic, off-the-beaten-path wines (like me) to explore. But beyond the geeks (like me), Swiss wines should appeal to people who like cool-climate, low-alcohol, Alpine-style wines that have grown in popularity over the past several years. “It’s a good time for alternative wine countries like Switzerland. There is a curiosity that I’ve never seen before,” said Gilles Besse, winemaker at Jean-René Germanier in the mountainous Valais region, where grapes grow close to some of the world’s best skiing, often at more than 2,000 feet above sea level.

  • Swiss Wines: Easy to Love, Hard to Find
    Jun 14, 2019, 10:20am Swiss Wines: Easy To Love, Hard To Find John Mariani Contributor I cover the world’s best hotels, restaurants and wine. The vineyards of the Vaud region in Switzerland lie along Lake Geneva. MAUDE RION Before going off to Switzerland this spring, I was fortunate to attend a dinner in New York held by the Swiss Wine Commission to show off modern viniculture from a country whose wines are so rarely written about—not from a lack of interest but from a lack of Swiss wines to write about. As I learned over dinner at Nomad in New York with several Swiss vintners, the problem is that the Swiss pretty much drink every drop of wine they make, with only about two percent exported to the rest of the world. This was particularly disappointing because the wines I tasted that evening were of such high quality and varietal caliber. With a dish of foie gras was served a Provins Valais Petite Arvine 2015 from Valais, and Château d’Auvernier Chardonnay 2017 from Neuchâtel; with a mushroom dish two vintages (2013 and 2016) of Jean- René Germanier Balavaud Cayas Réserve Syrahs from Valais; with a beef and Swiss chard Angelo Delea Carato Merlot 2015 from Ticino and Valais Mundi Sa Electus Red Blend 2015, from Valais; with the cheese course of Sbrinz, Domaine La Colombe Petit Clos Chasselas La Cȏte 2017 from Vaud and Château d’Auvernier Chasselas 2018 from Neuchâtel; finally, a chocolate cake with Domaine La Colombe Pinot Noir 2017 from Vaud and Vini Delea La Bruna Grappa from Ticino.

  • Aglianico from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Aglianico From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Aglianico (pronounced [aʎˈʎaːniko], roughly "ahl-YAH-nee- koe") is a black grape grown in the Basilicata and Campania Aglianico regions of Italy. The vine originated in Greece and was Grape (Vitis) brought to the south of Italy by Greek settlers. The name may be a corruption of vitis hellenica, Latin for "Greek vine."[1] Another etymology posits a corruption of Apulianicum, the Latin name for the whole of southern Italy in the time of ancient Rome. During this period, it was the principal grape of the famous Falernian wine, the Roman equivalent of a first-growth wine today. Contents Aglianico from Taurasi prior to veraison Color of Black 1 History berry skin 2 Relationship to other grapes Also called Gnanico, Agliatica, Ellenico, 3 Wine regions Ellanico and Uva Nera 3.1 Other regions Origin Greece 4 Viticulture Notable Taurasi, Aglianico del Vulture 5 Wine styles wines 6 Synonyms Hazards Peronospera 7 References History The vine is believed to have first been cultivated in Greece by the Phoceans from an ancestral vine that ampelographers have not yet identified. From Greece it was brought to Italy by settlers to Cumae near modern-day Pozzuoli, and from there spread to various points in the regions of Campania and Basilicata. While still grown in Italy, the original Greek plantings seem to have disappeared.[2] In ancient Rome, the grape was the principal component of the world's earliest first-growth wine, Falernian.[1] Ruins from the Greek Along with a white grape known as Greco (today grown as Greco di Tufo), the grape settlement of Cumae.

    VINEYARDS AND GRAPE VARIETIES: WHAT IS GOING ON IN WINE PROFESSIONAL AND CONSUMER MINDS? Carole HONORÉ-CHEDOZEAU1, 2, Maud LELIÈVRE-DESMAS3, Jordi BALLESTER1, Sylvie CHOLLET3, Bertrand CHATELET2, Dominique VALENTIN1 1UMR CSGA 6265 CNRS, INRA, UBFC, 9E Boulevard Jeanne d’Arc, 21000 Dijon, France 2SICAREX Beaujolais, 210 Boulevard Victor Vermorel, CS 60320, 69661 Villefranche sur Saône Cedex, France 3ISA Lille, Institut Charles VIOLLETTE (ICV) EA 7394, 59000 Lille, France *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Vineyard and grape variety are two popular ways of classifying wines. Vineyard designation is a traditional practice for European wine labels but is being increasingly replaced by grape variety designation, mainly used for New World and Swiss wine labels. In a context of wine categorization, we investigated on the relationship between those two dimensions. For this purpose, we selected a set of 56 wine labels to represent three red grape varieties (Gamay, Pinot Noir and Gamaret) and three vineyards (Beaujolais, Burgundy and Switzerland). Three panels were recruited: a panel of 30 wine professionals (experts) from the Beaujolais vineyard, a panel of 30 wine consumers from the Beaujolais vineyard and a panel of 30 wine consumers from Lille, a French region without wine production. We used a free hierarchical sorting task on labels coupled with a verbalization task and an interview. Data were first analyzed separately for each panel using a Hierarchical Multiple Factor Analysis and a Hierarchical Ascending Classification. Results showed that the three panels yielded very similar wine groups. With the exception of Gamaret wines, most French wines were separated by both vineyard and grape variety while Swiss wines were separated by grape varieties.
