🎧Ep 608: The Grape Miniseries — The Barbera Refresh
Barbera is one of Italy's most widely planted red grapes and an essential part of Piemontese wine culture. It is native to the Monferrato hills, where it has been grown for centuries and important to the overall wine landscape of the region. Adaptable, drought-resistant, and capable of producing everything from bright, food-friendly, everyday wines to serious oak-aged bottles, Barbera has spread beyond its homeland — to California, Argentina, Australia and more. A grower's and winemaker's favorite grape for its easygoing nature in the vineyard and the winery, in the glass, Barbera takes many forms. From acidic and fruity to oaked with darker fruit and spice, it is food-friendly, pairing with everything from braised meat to pizza. As in all the grape miniseries, I cover the DNA of the grape (a fairly recent discovery and kind of a funny story), its history, its behavior in the vineyard and winery, aromas and flavors of the grape and regions in Italy and abroad that make Barbera.

Il viaggio del Professor Scienza e Stevie Kim prosegue in Calabria, una terra antichissima che conserva le tracce della Magna Grecia e dei monasteri bizantini. Attraverso il racconto di vitigni millenari come il Cirò e il Gaglioppo, l'episodio esplora come la produzione vinicola locale sia ancora oggi profondamente intrisa di mito e storia mediterranea. Il Gaglioppo aveva uno stretto legame con i simposi greci: questo vino veniva infatti apprezzato perché il suo colore intenso ricordava il sangue usato durante i banchetti rituali.

What Alcohol Manufacturers and Retailers Need to Know About California’s Extended Producer Responsibility and the May 31 Deadline
California now joins Colorado, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Oregon, and Washington as states that have enacted Extended Producer Responsibility laws for packaging. SB 54 (also known as the Plastic Pollution Prevention and Packaging Producer Responsibility Act) is set to significantly impact alcohol manufacturers and retailers selling products both in and into California. The stated purpose of this law is to ensure that “producers” (as defined below, and which in some circumstances may include retailers) of single-use packaging and food service ware take responsibility for the end-of-life management of those materials and increase the use of recyclable and compostable packaging.
