Waarom drinken we eigenlijk champagne op oudejaarsavond met oud & nieuw?
Oudejaarsavond en champagne zijn onlosmakelijk met elkaar verbonden. Zodra de klok middernacht slaat, worden overal ter wereld champagneflessen ontkurkt om te proosten op het nieuwe jaar. Maar waarom is juist champagne dé drank om dit moment te vieren? In dit artikel duiken we in de geschiedenis, tradities en symboliek achter dit sprankelende ritueel.
videoChianti Classico + Sautéed Veal Chop
At Primi Italian Steakhouse on Long Island, David Kohl pairs his sautéed veal chop with a half bottle of 2019 Fontodi Chianti Classico, an organic selection produced from the Sangiovese grape. Fontodi ‘s style is considered a modern version of Chianti Classico because it is known more for its fruit structure rather than for its rustic - earthy notes. As a half-bottle format, the 2019 is appropriately aged and ‘drinking now’. #winepodcast #chianticlassico #fontodiwine #longislandfoodie #foodandwine
videoWine doesn't always need a special occasion...
Save this as a reminder that great wine doesn’t need a special occasion. 🐾 Some of my favorite rituals happen right here at home — slowing down, sharing a quiet moment, and opening a bottle of St. Francis wine because it’s rooted in something real. 🍷 For over five decades, St. Francis Winery has been crafting expressive, beautifully balanced wines in Sonoma County — family-owned, sustainably grown, and made with deep respect for the land. Their Sonoma Chardonnay is rich, and effortlessly food-

videoThis Wine Confused Me…
Some wines make sense right away. Others make you work for it. Brunello di Montalcino is often the second kind, shaped by the rolling hills of Tuscany, long aging, and the structure of Sangiovese grown in one of Italy’s most respected regions. They can feel a bit closed at first. A little unexpected. But give them a moment, and everything starts to come together. That’s part of the experience. Watch the full tasting and see how this one evolves.

The Wine Makers – The “El Dorado Eight”, Edio from Delfino Farms, Starfield, Lava Cap
This week we invited Lee Hodo, a veteran in marketing and promotion of wine and destination brands, who is leading the charge to showcase the amazing wines from this historical yet lesser-known AVA. Lee brought winemakers from three of the top Wineries in the area; Lava Cap, Edio from Delfino Farms and Starfield Vineyards. At between 1,200ft-3,500ft, elevation is one of the defining features of the region. As air hits the Sierra Nevada Mountains it is forced to rise through orographic uplift. As the air rises, the adiabatic process causes cooling at a rate of around 4 degrees Fahrenheit per 1000ft of elevation gain. As a result, ambient air temperatures in the region are between 10-15 degrees cooler than the Central Valley below. The complex topography of El Dorado further distinguishes the region as a location for a diversity of premium grapes. As the sun sets, cool air from the Sierra Nevada settles in low lying pockets, creating areas of cold night-time air surrounded by relatively

Discovering Stikky Wine: A Fun Guide to Wine Basics
It was my curiosity about the meaning of the book’s title, Stikky Wine, that led me to accept a copy for review. What did the title mean? Was it a book about sweet wines — stikky being a playful spelling of stickies, the Australian slang for sweet dessert wines? I doubted that. So what is Stikky Wine all about exactly?
