  • Discrimination of Brazilian Red Varietal Wines According to Their Sensory
    1172 DISCRIMINATION OFMIELE, BRAZILIAN A. & RIZZON, REDL. A. VARIETAL WINES ACCORDING TO THEIR SENSORY DESCRIPTORS Discriminação de vinhos tintos Brasileiros varietais de acordo com suas características sensoriais Alberto Miele1, Luiz Antenor Rizzon2 ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper was to establish the sensory characteristics of wines made from old and newly introduced red grape varieties. To attain this objective, 16 Brazilian red varietal wines were evaluated by a sensory panel of enologists who assessed wines according to their aroma and flavor descriptors. A 90 mm unstructured scale was used to quantify the intensity of 26 descriptors, which were analyzed by means of the Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The PCA showed that three important components represented 74.11% of the total variation. PC 1 discriminated Tempranillo, Marselan and Ruby Cabernet wines, with Tempranillo being characterized by its equilibrium, quality, harmony, persistence and body, as well as by, fruity, spicy and oaky characters. The other two varietals were defined by vegetal, oaky and salty characteristics; PC 2 discriminated Pinot Noir, Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Arinarnoa, where Pinot Noir was characterized by its floral flavor; PC 3 discriminated only Malbec, which had weak, floral and fruity characteristics. The other varietal wines did not show important discriminating effects. Index terms: Sensory analysis, enology, Vitis vinifera. RESUMO Conduziu-se este trabalho, com o objetivo de determinar as características sensoriais de vinhos tintos brasileiros elaborados com cultivares de uva introduzidos no país há algum tempo e outros, mais recentemente. Para tanto, as características de 16 vinhos tintos varietais brasileiros foram determinadas por um painel formado por enólogos que avaliaram os vinhos de acordo com suas características de aroma e sabor.

  • Montepulciano
    HARVESTED: SEPT 29 + OCT 2, 6, 9 BRIX AVG: UNTI 24.5 BLEND: 100% MONTEPULCIANO ACIDITY: DRY CREEK VALLEY 5.7 g/L MONTEPULCIANO pH: 3.81 201 5 ALCOHOL: 14.3 % AGING: 16 MONTHS FRENCH OAK 35% NEW BOTTLED: GRO W N, PR ODUCED AND BOTTLED 4/26/17 B Y UNTI V INEYARDS HEALDSBURG, CA CASES: ALCOHOL 14.3% BY V O L UME 379 WWW.UNTIVINEYARDS.COM 2015 MONTEPULCIANO VARIETAL/VINEYARD: We began grafting vines over to Montepulciano in 2005 after visiting Italy’s Le Marche Region. We now have 2.5 acres of Montepulciano planted to four different blocks on our winery ranch. This wine comes from our first vineyard block near the creek, and a block we planted in 2007. The vines are planted to 4’ X 6’ spacing on 101-14 and 420-A rootstock. We believe our climate in Dry Creek is similar to the cooler hillside sites in Abruzzo resulting in a Montepulciano with brighter fruit and acidity. VINTAGE/HARVEST: 2015 was another excellent vintage for Montepulciano. The 2015 growing season featured drought-like growing conditions in the spring and summer. The warm and dry conditions allowed us to harvest our Montepulciano grapes early (September 29 - October 10th) with ideal sugar/acid numbers. Montepulciano is a vigorous vine, thus we routinely drop about 40-50% of the crop for uniform ripening, depth, and complexity. WINEMAKING: We fermented this Montepulciano in small open top tanks. It was de-stemmed, lightly crushed, and kept below 60 degrees for several days prior to spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeast.

  • New Zealand Earthquake: First Relief Trucks Sent to Kaikoura As Road Opens | World News | the Guardian
    10/19/2018 New Zealand earthquake: first relief trucks sent to Kaikoura as road opens | World news | The Guardian New Zealand earthquake: first relief trucks sent to Kaikoura as road opens Army convoy brings supplies for stricken South Island town, while navy ship berths in Christchurch carrying hundreds of evacuees Eleanor Ainge Roy in Dunedin Wed 16 Nov 2016 22.38 EST A road has been cleared to the seaside town of Kaikoura on New Zealand’s east coast four days after it was cut off by a magnitude 7.8 quake that devastated the North Canterbury region of the South Island. The inland road to Kaikoura was opened on Thursday morning, but only for trucks and four- wheel drive vehicles as it remained unstable and badly damaged. A convoy of 27 army vehicles loaded with relief supplies was immediately sent to the town. Gale-force winds and heavy downpours in quake-stricken areas continued to slow the pace of relief efforts, although the majority of the 1,200 tourists stranded in Kaikoura had been evacuated by sea and air. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/nov/17/new-zealand-earthquake-first-relief-trucks-sent-to-kaikoura-as-road-opens 1/3 10/19/2018 New Zealand earthquake: first relief trucks sent to Kaikoura as road opens | World news | The Guardian Nearly 500 evacuees came into Christchurch early on Wednesday morning on the HMNZS Canterbury and were put up in empty student dormitories, where they were offered cooked breakfasts and hot showers after arriving at 5am. Police in Marlborough were using a military Iroquois helicopter to begin checking on isolated high-country farms from the Clarence river to the upper Awatere valley, delivering emergency food and medical supplies to farmers who had gone without assistance since the quake early on Monday.

  • Introducing California Wines
    Chapter 1 Introducing California Wines In This Chapter ▶ The gamut of California’s wine production ▶ California wine’s international status ▶ Why the region is ideal for producing wines ▶ California’s colorful wine history ll 50 U.S. states make wine — mainly from grapes but in some Acases from berries, pineapple, or other fruits. Equality and democracy end there. California stands apart from the whole rest of the pack for the quantity of wine it produces, the international reputation of those wines, and the degree to which wine has per- meated the local culture. To say that in the U.S., wine is California wine is not a huge exaggeration. If you want to begin finding out about wine, the wines of California are a good place to start. If you’re already a wine lover, chances are that California’s wines still hold a few surprises worth discov- ering. To get you started, we paint the big picture of California wine in this chapter. Covering All the Bases in WineCOPYRIGHTED Production MATERIAL Wine, of course, is not just wine. The shades of quality, price, color, sweetness, dryness, and flavor among wines are so many that you can consider wine a whole world of beverages rather than a single product. Can a single U.S. state possibly embody this whole world of wine? California can and does. Whatever your notion of wine is — even if that changes with the seasons, the foods you’re preparing, or how much you like the people you’ll be dining with — California has that base covered.

  • 2020 King Estate Rosé of Pinot Noir
    2020 WILLAMETTE VALLEY ROSÉ OF PINOT NOIR Rosé is often associated with summer, it is growing in popularity as devotees discover it is delicious to sip all year long. Typically Rosé is made from red wine grapes, either a single varietal or a blend. In the United States, Rosé made from Pinot Noir grapes is most popular. In Oregon, famed for growing outstanding Pinot Noir, it’s only natural that our take on Rosé starts with the fruit that put Oregon on the map. TASTING NOTES A lovely peach-tinged rose color in the glass, this wine displays fragrances of rose petal and strawberries on the nose, along with notes of lime, passion fruit and chalk. Flavors of summer berries – strawberry and raspberry – mingle with hints of rose water, passion fruit and lime zest along with wet limestone. On the entry, the wine is well balanced with fresh acidity and optimal roundness on the mid-palate. The acidity mellows a bit near the end for a lush finish. WINEMAKING PROCESS The fruit was whole cluster pressed and left to sit on its skins just long enough to release the juice and develop the pink color before moving to a temperature-controlled stainless steel tank for fermentation. The wine was aged in stainless steel. VINTAGE NOTES Marked by extreme and rare weather events, 2020 will nevertheless yield excellent wines. Up until Labor Day, conditions for wine grapes were mostly warm and dry although wide swings between early heat and cool weather in the spring led to high amounts of shatter with smaller berries and clusters.

  • Aperitivi Wine List Grappa List
    ESTD1988 ◄ GRAPPE ► The origins of Grappa are humble; it was created primarily to avoid wasting the Pomace - the skins, pips, stems and pulp left over from the wine-making process. The root of the word probably comes from words for pomace in the vulgar Latin of Northern Italy such as raspon, grapo, rappe, and graspa, the latter still used by many producers today. ESTD1988 The refinement of grappa from the 1970’s on has developed hand in hand with the evolution of an elegant Italian cuisine and interest in boutique boubons and single-malt whiskies. Today almost every wine produc- er distills his own grappa (or has it distilled for him) often using precisely the same pomace used to make his most notable wine. (See Tignanello, Serpico, Ruggeri Prosecco and Sassicaia on our list). The number of grappas produced today is in the thousands. At Pappardelle we have sourced some of the most distintive grappas encountered over many years of tasting. Some of them are big names like Jacopo Poli, Nonino and Antinori, others less well known but still delicious, distinctive, and good value precisely because of that. ◄ ► 100.
