Chateau Ste. Michelle
Chateau Ste. Michelle have a fabulous range of new wines. Today we share the wines from Washington State’s founding winery, Chateau Ste. Michelle. I have long loved enjoying and purchasing these wines for decades. They continue to make wines that offer sensational value. Winemaker Katie Nelson has a longstanding history in our industry.

Middle East Crisis increases Alcobev Input Costs in India
With the ongoing conflict in the Middle East severely disrupting global supply chains, two of India’s leading industry bodies, the Confederation of Indian Alcoholic Beverage Companies (CIABC) and the Brewers Association of India (BAI), have approached state governments seeking urgent price revisions and relief measures to offset unprecedented input cost escalation. The conflict has choked critical maritime trade routes, particularly around the Strait of Hormuz, a key artery for global oil and petrochemical shipments. With nearly 20% of the world’s crude flows passing through this corridor, disruptions have triggered a sharp spike in energy prices, freight costs, and availability of essential raw materials. Shipping routes have become longer and costlier due to diversions, while war-related surcharges and insurance premiums have further strained supply chains. The cascading effect has been felt across industries reliant on imported inputs and energy-intensive manufacturing,

A Tour of Wine Grapes: Sauvignon Blanc (Part 2)
Sauvignon Blanc 🥂 Photo: Geolina163 & 1971markus on Wikimedia Commons Last time we looked at Sauvignon Blanc - its history, aromas and flavors. Now, let’s take a look at two different growing regions for Sauvignon Blanc: California and New Zealand. Sauvignon Blanc is a white wine made from the same grape variety, but the wines produced in California and New Zealand are different because of their climates. California Sauvignon Blanc generally comes from a warmer climate, which alters how the grapes ripen on the vine. The warm weather causes the grapes to develop higher sugar levels and lower natural sharpness, or acidity. As a result, the final wine usually features dominant flavors of ripe fruits like melon, peach, and citrus. The texture of the wine tends to be smoother and less sharp on the tongue. In contrast, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is mostly grown in the Marlborough region, which has a much cooler ocean climate combined with high levels of sunlight. The cool nights keep the n
