  • Revolution White Solera MV
    Revolution White Solera MV Bioweingut Johannes Zillinger Winemaker: Johannes Zillinger Region: Niederösterreich, Austria Grapes: Chardonnay (50%), Scheurebe (25%), Riesling (25%) Profile: Apricot, Christmas spices, brioche, a bit of terra cotta. The Chardonnay provides fruit, weight, texture. The Scheurebe is there for floral characteristics. The Riesling solera is the structural backbone of the wine, it is there for acidity and a rocky mouthfeel. Grape Growing: Certified organic and Demeter bio-dynamic. Johannes uses Demeter treatments 500 (horn manure), 501 (horn kiesel mountain crystal) and 507 (herbs and valerian to help with frost and vine relaxation). A small group of local winemakers co-produce the fermented manure 30km from the vineyard. Needless to say, all grapes are manually harvested. Winemaking: The Chardonnay is added whole bunch pressed into 500L Georgian Qvevri (amphorae). The qvevri is sealed and left underground for 6 months, after which the wine is removed, and very loosely racked off the solids. The finished result is then blended with two different soleras. The first solera contains 6 vintages of Riesling (2013-2018) the other has 3 vintages of Scheurebe (2016-2018). Both soleras are kept in stainless steel to preserve freshness. After this, the resulting wine is never filtered, never sulfured, and finally bottled. (Bottled, April 24, 2019) More About the Wine: The "Solera-System" of Riesling which has been built up since 2013 gives character to this wine. Structure comes out of the must fermentation of Chardonnay from selected berries and grapes which is done in amphoras of 500 liters. The revolutionary taste of this Alc: 12.5% wine is the result of nothing added nothing removed winemaking.

    COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES Brussels, 24.6.2003 COM (2003) 377 final 2003/0140 (ACC) Proposal for a COUNCIL DECISION on the conclusion of an agreement between the European Community and Canada on trade in wines and spirit drinks (presented by the Commission) EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 1. This agreement between Canada and the European Community is the result of bilateral negotiations which took place from 7 November 2001 to 24 April 2003 on the basis of a negotiating mandate adopted by the Council on 1 August 2001 (Doc. 11170/01). The agreement comprises arrangements for the reciprocal trade in wines and spirit drinks with a view to creating favourable conditions for its harmonious development. 2. The agreement specifies oenological practices which may be used by producers of wine exported to the other Party, as well as a procedure for accepting new oenological practices. The Community's simplified system of certification will be applied to imported wines originating in Canada. Canada will not introduce import certification for Community wines and will simplify the extent of such testing requirements as are currently applied by provinces, within a year of entry into force. Production standards are agreed for wine made from grapes frozen on the vine. Concerning production standards for spirit drinks, the agreement provides that Canada will adhere to Community standards for its exports of whisky to the Community. 3. Procedures whereby geographical indications relating to wines and spirit drinks of either Party may be protected in the territory of the other Party are agreed. The current "generic" status in Canada of 21 wine names will be ended by the following dates: 31 December 2013 for Chablis, Champagne, Port and Porto, and Sherry; 31 December 2008 for Bourgogne and Burgundy, Rhin and Rhine, and Sauterne and Sauternes; the date of entry into force of the agreement for Bordeaux, Chianti, Claret, Madeira, Malaga, Marsala, Medoc and Médoc, and Mosel and Moselle.
