Aflevering 56: De Jura
Het is een klein, bijzonder gebied met unieke wijnen die je niet elke dag drinkt. Het is in Nederland ook vrij onbekend, toch wordt er al eeuwenlang wijn gemaakt op een hoog niveau. En ze zijn populairder dan ooit. We hebben het over de Jura in het oosten van Frankrijk. Weleens gehoord van Poulsard en Trousseau, of Savagnin? Het zijn dé druivenrassen van dit gebiedje. We gaan het allemaal weer bespreken en proeven met een absolute kenner van dit gebied én inmiddels een vaste gast van onze podcast, Joep Speet: het is eindelijk tijd voor de Jura.

podcast· 43:40· S1E163WTF is Kerner?
Now this is an exciting wine! We didn’t have super high expectations going in - the name Kerner does not scream “adventure” - but we are telling you this is a white wine that is worth seeking out. Some call it one of the best white wines in Italy, and after tasting it, we agree, and so we are wondering why it does not get more love! It is a grape originally created in Germany as a cross between Riesling and Schiava/Trollinger to be a workhorse and handle cold weather, the Italians have made it into a rich, complex, and beautiful aromatic white wine. Confused about why this German wine is being made in Germany?!? Listen in and we’ll tell you why! Both the wines we tried in this episode are excellent, and what is fun is that they are both a little different from each other - the Abbazia wine we would call adventurous and worth seeking out, and the winemaker is no slouch, having won the Gambero Rosso Winemaker of the Year in 2009. Trust us, this is an episode you will want to listen to. W
