videoAn Introduction to Collio (08/2024)
West of the city of Gorizia in northeastern Italy, there is a group of hills known as Collio where Gradis’ciutta is situated. The Isonzo River flows through this hilly stretch to the southeast, towards the Judrio creek to the northwest, and in the south it merges into the Friulian plain. Appreciated not only for its wines, but also for fruit and olive oil, Collio was once a backdrop for skirmishes during the Great War. Today, the area is synonymous with high-quality white wines. At Gradis’ciutta, Collio’s unique terroir is reflected in the outstanding wines produced, whether they be indigenous or international varietals. Before carrying the name Gradis’ciutta, the vineyard area was known as Monsvini, which in Latin means “Mount of Wine.” The soul behind the constantly evolving reality of Gradis’ciutta is Robert Princic, who got his start in wine at a young age, spending time in the vines every harvest with his hardworking parents, Isidoro and Ivanka. Today, Robert continues to carry th

podcast· 55:35· Ep 425If You Can Sell Coke, Can You Sell Wine? Courtney O'Brien Explains.
Sometimes when you speak to a consultant, you get consultant gobeldy gook. I can't tell you how many consultants I hired along the way at the WIne of the Month Club, but suffice it to say, most did not perform as expected. Why? Because selling wine is different than anything else in the world. Courtney O'Brien is different. She knows wine, she knows branding and she brings corporate America along for the ride. If you're looking for a lighthearted yet informative take on this episode of Wine Talks with Paul K, here's a quick summary with a wink: This episode is like a masterclass in beverage branding—with a side of humor and plenty of entrepreneurial reality checks. Paul Kalemkiarian sits down with Courtney O'Brien, a seasoned beverage veteran whose resume runs the gamut from water (Evian) to soda (Coca-Cola) and finally to wine (Gallo). She's done it all—from "chief bottle washer" to innovator and now, consultant helping wine brands rise above the "product" level to become true brands.

videoStephane Tissot - Vin Jaune Pioneer from Jura
Stephane Tissot is a pioneer of making Vin Jaune in Jura. Of course, whilst we say pioneer, he did not invent the so-called "Yellow Wine" of the region which has been made for many centuries, BUT he was the first to identify and prove the power of Terroir on this oxidative wine technique. He has done this by making Vin Jaune wines on his specific plots of different soil types, which was previously not seen as that important in differentiating between the Vin Jaune characteristics. Most Vin Jaune producers will assemble all the plots they have from all different soil types into their production of Vin Jaune, and the importance of the barrels and cellar was given the focus. Stephane Tissot however, has showcases in his range of Vin Jaune the stark differences the soils from Trias and Lias create even with an oxidative style, which can be quite powerful. This is why he is a pioneer of Vin Jaiune, and in our mind and many others with his very low intervention methods to let the wines sh

On le sait, le fameux summer body n’est rien sinon une chimère contemporaine, savant mélange de culpabilité torride et de fessiers sur papier glacé. Pourtant, quand vient le moment de choisir entre un chardonnay et un Perrier tranche, surgit alors un soupçon d’hésitation, et une vaste question : faut-il renoncer au vin pour rentrer dans son short en lin ? Voici quelques erreurs à ne pas commettre et quels vins seront vos meilleurs alliés jusqu’à la rentrée. Dans ce nouvel épisode de Parlons Vin, la journaliste Alicia Dorey vous énumère, à titre de précieux rappels, quelques faux pas plus ou moins grossiers, à ne pas oublier cet été.
