podcast· 47:25· Ep 135#135 Dankbaar voor Coravin
Dankbaar voor Coravin, ja zeker! Zonder deze handige wijngadget hadden we onze WSET4 diploma misschien nooit gehaald. Coravin is een geniale uitvinding die wijnfans de vrijheid geeft om te proeven en te schenken zonder de fles te ontkurken, waardoor de kwaliteit van de resterende wijn behouden blijft. Hoe lang precies? Dat werd onlangs in Amsterdam getest met flessen die al jaren geleden voor het eerst 'gecoravind' werden. De resultaten waren indrukwekkend. Greg Lambrecht, CEO van Coravin, was voor deze bijzondere test in Nederland, en dat was het uitgelezen moment om hem te strikken voor een interview. Hoe is hij op het idee van Coravin gekomen? En wat moeten we weten over Coravin Sparkling, of over andere spannende ontwikkelingen die eraan komen? 🚨 KORTING OP CORAVIN 🚨 20% korting op één Coravin systeem naar keuze – eenmalig per klant. Geldig t/m 15 mei 2024, alleen op coravin.nl Code: LECLUB20 -------- ❤️ Volg de nieuwsbrief van Le Club des Vins.

podcast· 55:26· Ep 82Cork's Comeback, Sustainability and Eliminating TCA Yay! With Amorim Cork, Ep. 82
We’ve become cork dorks! That’s right, while you may love the convenience and ease of screw caps, after today’s pod, you’ll never think about cork stoppers the same way. Sure, cork has been used for centuries to seal wine bottles, and, you may know it comes from the bark of cork oak trees. You may not know 60% of the world’s cork comes from Portugal. That’s one reason we’re excited to have Carlos de Jesus, Communications Director for Amorim Cork , the world’s largest cork producer, joining us on the pod from Amorim’s headquarters just outside of Porto. In August and September 2023, Mary Orlin visited Amorim’s two main factories and a cork oak farm while vacationing in Portugal. She met with several members of Amorim’s team, including Carlos, and was treated to an in-depth master class on cork. She was totally fascinated and wanted to share what she saw and learned with our podcast audience. Mary O says you may not think much about the cork stopper when you pull it from the bottle, but

The Wine Makers – Lance Cutler or is it Jake Lorenzo?
Lance Cutler spent fifteen years as winemaker/general manager for the historic Gundlach Bundschu Winery in Sonoma, California. He almost single-handedly brought humor into the fine wine business producing the fabulous Gundlach Bundschu poster series, and the Sonoma Valley Wine Patrol, which masterminded the hijacking of the Napa Wine Train and the kidnapping of Richard Branson of Virgin Atlantic Airlines.
