videoCan Wine Save The Planet, a documentary Project Introduction
We are rolling out awareness and fundraising for our Documentary Project "Can Wine Save the Planet!" The goal of this project is to tell the stories of biodynamic and regenerative vineyards and wineries. These are people who are revitalizing the soils and, in turn, helping to mitigate climate change, all while making better wine. So yes, you can enjoy a glass of wine and help save the planet! IF you are drinking the right wine. You might have to do some legwork to find a winery that is farming regeneratively. Join us as we dig into the stories behind these wineries and why they feel regenerative philosophies are important.

Tom er personlig troende når det kommer til å nyte skalldyr i vintermånedene. Derfor har han med seg denne godsaken fra nord-Spania som straks får Kjell-Gabriel til å vri seg i estetisk smerte – etiketten på flasken er i følge ham ikke helt i samsvar med innholdet, som våre venner er rørende enige om.

204: Wer A sagt, muss auch A sagen - mit Andreas Sattler
Drei Jahre ist es her, dass Alex Sattler uns sprachlich und weintechnisch ordentlich eingeschenkt hat. Heute bringen wir Balance in die Bude: Sein Bruder Andreas Sattler sitzt am Mikro. Er ist der Mann für den Keller und den Feinschliff. Zusammen bilden sie eine Doppelspitze, die zeigt, dass ein Generationswechsel ein stilistischer Hauptgewinn sein kann. Wo früher Üppigkeit war, regieren heute Fokus und Präzision. Gemeinsam verkosten wir eine echte Premiere: Das Projekt „Kleine Gärten“ – die höchst zeitgemäße Antwort auf das Sterben kleiner Strukturen in der Steiermark. Wie man eine kleinteilige Kulturlandschaft rettet, warum Welschriesling weit mehr ist als nur ein Spritzer-Wein, wie man bei Fassproben die Zukunft schmeckt, warum Kalk überbewertet ist? Lernen wir alles. Und wie eine harmonische Stabübergabe funktioniert, bei der am Ende alle vom Gleichen überzeugt sind. Andreas und Alex sind der Beweis dafür, dass man es aus einem vergessenen Dorf auf internationale Top-Weinkarten bri

Travis Culley: Oral History Interview
This interview is with Travis Culley, a Linfield grad and local wine industry veteran. In this interview, Travis talks about attending Linfield in the 90s, beginning to work at Nick’s Italian Cafe the week before he started his freshman year, and all his adventures since then. Travis talks about being introduced to wine through Riesling while his dad was in the Air Force and his family lived in Germany. They later moved to Weston, OR near Pendleton, and Travis came to Linfield in 1990. The week before classes started, his roommate took him to Nick’s Italian Cafe to help clean up the kitchen. He ended up working there for the next 11 years. Travis discusses his involvement with IPNC and how he ended up in the background of a very famous picture outside of Nick’s. During a dinner with dozens of influential winemakers sometime in the late 90s, everyone gathered outside the restaurant to take a picture, and Travis stood on a chair on the other side of the window to be included. Later in th

podcast· 51:07#232. Vinos que no son vino
En este nuevo episodio de ReWine abrimos la conversación a un tema curioso y un poco polémico: los “vinos” que no son vino. Partimos de una pregunta sencilla pero profunda: ¿qué define realmente al vino y dónde está la línea entre la tradición, la ley y la experiencia sensorial? Hablamos de fermentos que, aunque no provienen de la uva, pueden tener complejidad, estructura y carácter similares: sidra, sake, hidromiel, bebidas de maíz, tomate o granada, entre muchas otras. Un recorrido por la historia, la cultura y la diversidad del mundo de la fermentación que nos invita a mantener la mente abierta y a reconocer que el placer y la calidad pueden encontrarse en muchos lugares. Un episodio para cuestionar, descubrir y brindar por la riqueza de todo lo que el ser humano ha sido capaz de fermentar a lo largo del tiempo.

videoCostaripa Rosé Wine in Valtènesi Italy
History of Rosé in Valtènesi Valtènesi is on the southwestern shore of Lake Garda, Italy's largest lake. The lake was formed by a glacier about 1.5 million years ago. As it traveled south, this glacier deposited morainic soils and created the Morainic amphitheater of hills that protects the region from Northern winds. This protection and the lake allow this to be the northernmost area in Europe with a Mediterranean climate. Yes, citrus trees abound in this area. Here on the western shores of Lake Garda, back in 1896, Pompeo Gherardo Molmenti created Chiaretto di Moniga, or Chiaretto Valtènesi, the "wine of a single night." The Molmenti method gently pressed the grapes and left them with the skins for just a few hours, then let the free-run juice drain in what is called the "teardrop" method. This rosé, or Chiaretto, is primarily made with Groppello, a minimum of 30% by the DOC regulations. The remaining wine is to consist of one or more of the grapes Marzemino, Sangiovese, and

377: What Does It Mean For A Wine To Gain Wisdom As It Ages? with Neal Hulkower
Should wine competitions give judges the option to say that none of the wines in a category deserve a medal? Why have some classic regions become inaccessible while others remain within reach for wine drinkers? What does it mean for a wine to gain wisdom as it ages?
