videoThe luxury wine that takes 10 years to bottle
Ribera del Duero makes legendary red wine where grapes should almost fail. Discover how 900-meter altitudes and extreme weather forge Spain's boldest wine. What questions does this video answer? Why do vineyards in Ribera del Duero sit between 700 and 900 meters? How does an extreme diurnal temperature shift protect acidity in Tempranillo? What makes Tinto Fino structurally different from Rioja's Tempranillo? Why does Vega Sicilia Único take 10 years of aging before release? How did poverty unintentionally save Spain's ancient, pre-phylloxera bush vines? About This Video: Along the Duero River in central Spain, vineyards rise between 700 and 900 meters above sea level to produce red wine in conditions where grapes should almost fail. Afternoon temperatures routinely soar past 35°C (95°F) before plummeting toward single digits at night. Frost is a constant threat, rain is scarce, and high-altitude UV radiation is relentless. Yet in Ribera del Duero, the punishment is the point.

Whisky Review: Glenmorangie The Original 10-Year Highland Single Malt Scotch
Introduction This week, we’re diving into a classic single malt: Glenmorangie The Original 10-Year Highland Scotch . For Brad and me, this was the single malt scotch that marked our first step into the world of Scotch whisky on the Film & Whiskey Podcast. Back then, we picked up a sampler pack of four small Glenmorangie bottles that gave us a low barrier to entry. At the time, neither of us had much experience with scotch, but Glenmorangie became an early guidepost. This bottling was originally a 10-year age-stated whisky. Recently, Glenmorangie rebranded the expression, and it now carries a minimum age statement of 12 years. For this review, though, we tracked down an original 10-year bottle so that our guest, film critic Bilge Ebiri , could sip alongside us. Bilge admitted that he’s more of a bourbon drinker these days, but he was excited to revisit scotch with us. Glenmorangie is a Highland single malt , meaning a whisky made entirely from malted barley, and the &ldq

Why Alcoholic Daze? Chapter 1
In connection with my last post and for those who are new to my blog or for those who came here, hoping to seek some nuggets about alcoholism, I thought it might make sense to post once a month some repeat posts of my blog and how it all came about. So starting with today and then continuing with the first Sunday of every month, I shall focus on that. This is how my blog began nearly 18 years ago in 2008...... Alcoholic Daze – it seemed such a good name for my blog – a play on words of daze and days – because alcohol features quite a lot in my days, and weeks, and months, and years. But before you go leaping to conclusions, I am stone cold sober. All the time. My husband Greg on the other hand is not. I am watching him slowly kill himself and our love with it. He is an alcoholic. There, I have said it, spoken it out loud and now I believe it myself. HE IS AN ALCOHOLIC. Up to now, not many people knew he was, including me. At first I did not see it creeping

videoWhy Room Temperature Ruins Your Best Bottle
Glassware, decanters, fancy corkscrews, endless pageantry. Somehow the one thing that actually decides whether your wine tastes great gets ignored: what temperature you pour it at. "White cold, red at room temperature" sounds like the whole rulebook. It isn't, and following it can flatten the very bottle you saved up for. This one breaks down why chilling wakes up acidity and those floral, herbaceous aromatics, why cold can drag tannin out and leave a red tasting harsh and bitter, and where phenolics actually come from (hint: it's not just the grapes). Then it gets practical with a four-bottle dinner run: which one you pour straight from the fridge, which needs a few minutes to warm, which goes back in for a quick chill, and which you crack open hours before anyone arrives. Plus the curveballs nobody warns you about. Sparkling and rosé, the rise of chilled reds and how to tell which reds can take it, why one style of orange wine belongs nowhere near an ice bucket, and the single frid
podcast· 46:52· Ep 623Ep 623: Mount Etna, Sicily
Mount Etna is one of the most interesting wine regions of Italy. On the northeast coast of Sicily, wine grapes grow on the slopes of Europe's highest active volcano, which has been erupting for at least 500,000 years and ranks among the most active volcanoes in the world. The UN counts it among just 16 volcanoes worldwide that pose a high risk to life and property, and that's not a joke: ash, steam, and lava flows can and do threaten the vineyards, and the mountain has shaped the culture of Sicily itself. But regardless of this volcanic activity, vines have always been here. And viticulture has been around since the Greeks in 8 th century BCE. In this show I discuss the mountain, which locals call "Mongibello," the beautiful mountain. I talk about the history, the terroir, the grapes, the wines, food and producers, and take a small detour into the world of volcanology!
