It’s a blender, alright, but you should definitely take it seriously as a varietal wine.

Erratum: I should have said Dorados can be compared to Oloroso Sherries - not Finos. Slip of the tongue; I think I’m still suffering from Sherry shell-shock. A great Spanish grape that needs more attention.

Some information on a widely planted yet relatively little known and appreciated grape with a hard to say name. Here are some videos with dueling pronunciations. To Debra Meiburg's position most fairly, she defends her pronunciation on the grounds that it’s easier for the Chinese audience she’s trying to reach, which strikes me as a very reasonable explanation; so, this may be a non-controversy...

Erratum: Jerez is actually located on the South Southwest coast of the Iberian Peninsula. I genuinely have no idea how I went so long without catching that. Hopefully, that's the biggest mistake I made. Part 1 of the long-requested cast on Sherry is here. This part covers history, wine law, climate, soils and grapes for Sherry. The next cast will be on production, the Solera system and styles. ...

    i think that that the grape variety that you state in the videos are older than the state of Israel because those variety found in this land before maybe 1000 of years while Israel state didn't complete even 100 year anniversary so its better to stick to the truth in the video that those grapes are Palestinian

      I'm assuming that you are referring to the ancient (and largely extinct) varieties that I mentioned briefly in the history section since the modern Israeli industry (as I make clear) is based on "international"/European varieties like Cab Sauv, Petit Verdot, etc. that are in no way "Palestinian" and did not arrive in the region (which I appropriately identify by its common name at the time, "Palestine") until the 1880s. As for ancient/archaic varieties, I correctly identify the names by which the region where they grew has been known: Canaan (the oldest name), Israel (2nd oldest) and Palestine (most recent). "Canaan" is the oldest known name for the region and its inhabitants, a number of whom coalesced into a shared identity by the 13th Century BCE known by the name "Israel." The "Israel" that I'm referring to here is first the tribal league that shared this identity and then the ancient Kingdom of Israel that, starting in the 11th Century BCE, was ruled by the monarchs Saul, David and Solomon and then had a long and complex history (including times of both independence and subjugation) until its final deposition under the Roman Empire in the First Century CE. The name "Palestine" for the region was a Roman renaming of the area based on the name of ancient coastal inhabitants of the region, the Philistines, and represented an insult by the Romans to the Jewish population of the area by denying them the name they would have preferred to use. For what it's worth, Jews who remained in that land until modern times as well as Jews outside of it continued to refer to it as the "Land of Israel" and both this name and "Palestine" have been the names for this region for the past 2000 years, each used depending on the cultural, religious and (more recently) political orientation of the user. These are the facts and they are quite complicated and an attempt to simplistically "claim" these grapes for a single one of these designations represents an attempt to politicize the content of this channel -- something I am opposed to and don't tolerate.

    @7:15 I just realized is inaccurate. You say Petit Chablis was created for increased white wine demand in the 1980’s but this region was technically created in 1944 according to The official administration website Vin De Bourgogne.

    Years Later! My daughter, who works, goes to school full-time, takes care of a husband, house and family, and drinks white Zinfandel (much to my, her sommelier mother, horror,)drinks it because it's dependable. I can't recall what labels she buys, but she always has about 2 to 3 bottles that she will sip on from time to time because she can always depend on it and it doesn't require any "thinking." For her, it's the ideal summer "porch pounder" because when it's chilled, it's refreshing. Can't argue! 😊

    Bonjour et gutentamy friend!!! Our winemaker loves reisling and gewurtz, and is doing a Rhine River cruise next summer. Intriguing, because our gewurtz has 1.8 % rs and is I think a magnificent expression. He also does his reislings dryer, and one of my friends says it's "just like the Mosel." Thanks for all you do, I think I am finally going to start my wsets this summer, and you've given me a firm foundation to start with!!!

    Merlot's fall, in my humble opinion, wasn't just about name branding. I think in the 90s that it became mass produced, companies like Trinchero were crushing 2 tons at a time, not sorting, and throwing in oak chips to sell "mass quantities." I am glad to remember the boutique producers who treat merlot properly.

    Something is missing at 02:34 in the equation! Energy(heat) is produced together with the alcohol+CO2, and it's important because the temp can affect the yeast activity.
