SV#161: Jerez – Sherry – Xérès

Finalmente cumprindo essa pendência antiga: episódio sobre Jerez! Jerez é um mundo dentro do mundo do vinho. É um vinho branco com cores variando do amarelo pálido quase transparente ao café profundo e untuoso. É o vinho mais seco que você vai provar na vida e, possivelmente, também os mais doce - e tudo o que pode ser compreendido entre esses dois extremos. Um vinho cheio de altos e baixos. Já foi responsável por mais de 40% do vinho consumido na Inglaterra por meados do século 19, teve a reputação comprometida pelas falsificações, ficou anos conhecido como "vinho das vovozinhas" e está sendo "redescoberto" neste século. E, como se já não fosse peculiar o suficiente devido ao seu método de produção, vem dessa região espanhola lindíssima que é a Andaluzia. Já vai anotando e aprendendo tudo porque é certeza que sua próxima viagem vai ser pra lá! The post SV#161: Jerez – Sherry – Xérès appeared first on Simples Vinho .

Épisode 55 : Mathieu Jullien, vendre des vins d'exception

Mathieu Jullien, LVMH Une fois n’est pas coutume, c’est de marketing dont il va s’agir aujourd’hui. Nous aimons toutes et tous le vin ici et nous continuerons encore longtemps à essayer de percer les mystères de sa production et des terroirs. Reste que, les vignerons et vigneronnes que nous rencontrons ne font pas de vin pour la beauté du geste, ils le font pour le vendre. Et quelque soit la qualité, du vin le plus simple au meilleur des grands crus, il faut réussir à le vendre. Même quand on s’appelle Yquem ou Cheval Blanc. Pour discuter de ce sujet plus compliqué qu'il n'y paraît, j'ai rencontré Mathieu Jullien qui dirige la division Vins d’exception au sein du groupe LVMH.
