A guide to the wines of the Rhone region
A GUIDE TO THE WINES OF THE RHONE REGION AN OVERVIEW OF RHONE WINES This blog post on Rhône wines, the first in a series, can only be an overview – the Rhône wine region is huge and the range of Rhône wines so varied that it is impossible to cover it all in one relatively short article. This guide covers Northern Rhone wines, Southern Rhone wines and their differences, Rhone wine labelling, what Cote du Rhone wines are and the general style of the region’s wines. Since 81% of Rhône Valley wines are red, I’ll focus on red Rhone wines – with the Rhone’s white and rosé wines to be covered at a later date (whites are 6% of production with rosé 13%). The terms Rhône and Rhone are used interchangeably in this blogpost. RHONE WINE STATISTICS First some figures about Rhone wine: there are over 5000 wine-growing businesses in 28 Rhône wine appellations using one or more of 27 permitted grape varieties to produce 3 million hectolitres for c. 372 million bottles of wine* – and that’s ignoring any

Wein und Leistungssport geht nicht zusammen, lautet die weitverbreitete Meinung in Deutschland. Alkohol und Profisportler schaffen es in die Öffentlichkeit meist nur als Skandalbericht über Promillefahrten. In den USA ist das vollkommen anders. Hier kombiniert so mancher Sportstar den entspannten Feierabend mit Grand Crus und zeigt es auch. Es gibt sogar Trainer, die ihren Schützlingen nicht nur Wurftechniken erklären, sondern auch die korrekte Aussprache von Léoville-Poyferré. Flo hat ein paar unterhaltsame Anekdoten zusammengetragen.

Ranger to Ranger: The Rhône Rangers
I belong to many wine trade organizations including the Applegate Valley Vintners Association, the Rogue Valley Vintners, and the Oregon Winegrowers Association. I had a similarly long list when I worked in the Napa Valley. Each of these organizations are defined by a place. Then there are the Rhône Rangers . The Rangers diverge from these place-based organizations as the Rhône Rangers are defined by the varieties they grow. To be a Rhône Ranger wine, 75% of the wine’s content must include one or more of the twenty-two traditional Rhône grape varieties as approved by the French government for the wines of the Côtes du Rhône, with Petite Sirah tacked on because of its early contributions in the American wine industry. So the Rhône Rangers are not defined by a place, but by an ideal—a belief in the unique characteristics of these classic Southern French varieties as expressed in American vineyards. The members of the Rhône Rangers span the continent, not an AVA. In this episode of the Wi

Introduction: Italy’s Premium Traditional-Method Sparkling Wine Cyclically, the wine world seems to grow enamored with new buzzwords.

205: Warum die Wein-Bubble ein Update braucht - mit Hanna und Ronja
Die TundA*-Community muss in dieser Folge sehr stark sein, denn sie bekommt einen harten Reality-Check. Fakt ist: Die internationalen Wein-Umsätze rutschen gnadenlos in den Keller. Der Grund? Gen Z trinkt weniger, ist budget-sensibel und „sober-curious“. Höchste Zeit, nicht immer nur über, sondern mit der Zielgruppe zu sprechen! Zu Gast sind heute Hanna und Ronja. Sie sind waschechte Vertreterinnen der Gen Z und geben ganz offen zu: Den richtigen Zugang zum Wein haben sie bisher einfach nicht gefunden. Ronja (25) ist selbsternannte Primitivo-Basic-Trinkerin und Hanna (21) fühlt sich in der Weinwelt lost, weil elitäres Fachwissen und Fachsimpeln einfach massiv abschrecken. Gemeinsam analysieren die vier den generationalen Clash im Glas. Wir klären, wann und wie Gen Z Wein trinkt, warum der klassische Kater heute der absolute Endgegner der Selbstoptimierung ist, wie Alkohol beim ersten Date zum ultimativen „Ick“ wird und wieso Weinkarten oft einfach nur überfordern. Die Gen Z hat eigentl

TTB and Consignment Sales – Is There a Disconnect Between Policy Development and Business Reality?
Last Friday, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), U.S. Treasury Department, introduced more confusion in its five years of aggressive unfair trade practice enforcement around the country. TTB issued Industry Circular 2022-1, Payment Terms Under Consignment Sales Provision, under the guise of providing guidance and clarification. The press release glowingly described the industry circular “As part of our continuing effort to ensure a level playing field and provide clarity to the alcohol beverage industry, TTB has…provide(d) additional guidance regarding payment terms under the consignment sales provisions.”
