Champagne fizz, cellar sounds, vineyard walks at Champagne Joël Falmet in Rouvre‑les‑Vignes. Every natural sound invites unintentional ASMR calm. Filmed on Joël's 6.5‑hectare family estate in Spring 2024.  Herbicides and pesticides are shunned here. This quiet vignette of unintentional ASMR offers a rare, intimate listen to the craft of grower‑champagne.  Champagne Joel Falmet: https://patrickallenselections.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Joel-Falmet-Champagne-LES-PARCELLES-Brut-NV.pdf  THIS IS EPISODE 112 OF UNDERSTANDING WINE WITH AUSTIN BEEMAN http://www.austinbeeman.com/podcast  WHAT IS ASMR? ASMR is essentially a made up acronym (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response ) used to describe that tingly / buzzing feeling you may have experienced in your head or running down your spine. The sensation can be triggered by personal attention, tutorials, sounds etc. If you are discovering "ASMR" videos for the first time, their primary purpose is just to relax and almost always to send the listener to sleep.  (usually those are longer than this.)  -- This one is just interesting sounds of a Champagne vineyard that I noticed when listening back on my footage.

By utilizing different fermentation techniques, such as skin fermentation, barrel fermentation, and stainless steel, David crafts a spectrum of white wines that challenge the notion of what white wine can be. As the tasting continues, Austin and David discuss the flexibility that comes with not owning vineyards, allowing David to source grapes from various locations and experiment with different varieties and blends each vintage. This approach results in a lineup of wines that can be radically different from year to year, reflecting David's creativity and passion for exploration.

Welcome to the 100th episode of "Understanding Wine with Austin Beeman"! In this special episode, I'm diving deep into the heart of Portugal's wine culture at WOW Porto (World of Wine), a cultural complex that's a paradise for wine lovers and a treasure trove of Portuguese heritage.

Welcome to my travel and wine channel! In this short yet captivating video, we embark on a visual journey to explore the stunning blue azulejos (traditional Portuguese tiles) of Pinhão Train Station, nestled in the heart of Portugal's Douro Valley. 

A tour of Graham's Port Lodge.  A tour guide explains the aging process and different types of port wines at Graham's cellar.  The guide mentions that the cellar has seven million liters of port aging, with the oldest wine dating back to 1882. He also discusses the different styles of port, such as Ruby and Tawny, and how they are aged differently to achieve specific flavors and characteristics.  The guide explains the process of bottling vintage ports and the significance of certain years, such as the first vintage port made by the Symington family in 1970.  The guide also mentions the different soils and methods used in the cellar to maintain the quality of the wines.

A conversation between David Guimaraens and Austin Beeman about Fonseca Bin 27, a young and fruity port wine.  Guimaraens describes the wine as full-bodied and rich, with a concentration of black currant fruit. He explains that the grapes used to make the port come from the Douro Valley, which has a hot mountain climate that contributes to the intensity of the fruit. The wine has plenty of tannins, making it a good pairing with chocolate desserts.  Beeman comments on the aroma of cherries and raspberries, and Guimaraens attributes this to the grape varieties used in port production. They both agree that the wine is pure, bright, and joyful in its fruitiness. Guimaraens describes Fonseca as a house known for its bubbly, rich, and intense wines, and Bin 27 is no exception.  They discuss how the winemaking process is crucial in preserving the fruitiness of the wine while extracting color and structure.  Overall, they find the wine to be enjoyable and fun.

He also discusses the traditional method of foot treading used to extract color and tannin from the grape skins.  Guimaraens emphasizes the importance of vintage port, which is made from the best ports of a single harvest and ages in the bottle to develop rich flavors and aromas.

Rita Marta, a member of the Martha family (https://marthasgroup.com), gives a tour of their old cellars in the Douro Valley. The walls of the main house date back to 1727, although they have been reconstructed over time. The family has been in the grape-growing business since then, but only started making wine in the early 19th century. They initially sold their grapes and later began selling their own bottled wine in 1970. The family primarily focuses on producing Tawny ports, which are traditionally more popular among Portuguese families. They also have French casks from Bordeaux that they use to age their ports and spirits. The estate is located in a narrow part of the Douro Valley and has olive trees strategically placed on the mountains to help with water absorption. The Martha family is currently in the fifth generation of running the business, which produces port wines, Douro wines, and spirits.

Visit the Nacional Vineyard of Quinta do Noval with Austin Beeman in Portugal.   The Nacional vineyard at Quinta do Noval in Portugal is considered one of the most important vineyards in the world. It survived phylloxera which devastated European vineyards in the late 1800s. The plot is the only survivor of the disease in the Douro Valley, and the reason for its resistance is still unknown.  The vineyard is home to a traditional field blend of Portuguese grape varieties, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Cão, and Souzão.  The vineyard is managed organically, and the low quantity of grapes produced results in a rare and valuable wine, with prices reaching beyond 1000 euros per bottle. The Nacional vineyard is considered the treasure of Quinta do Noval.

As Karoline Walch and I walked the vineyards, the important concept of sustainability came up. “My family has been here for five generations and I hope the vineyards go on for the next five generations in the same family hands. So it's obvious that what we do today is really also about thinking of the next generation. What we take out today is something we really have to give back also.” - Karoline Walch of Elena Walch See Elena Walch: the History in the Cellars for an overview of the history and a tour of winery with Owner/Winemaker Karoline Walch.

Kastelaz has the prestigious additional denomination of VIGNA. It is an additional mention of a smaller geographical origin and designs the smallest historical / geographical unit of a vineyard. Every single Vigna must be officially admitted and registered within the regional government. It expresses the ultimate thought of terroir philosophy with the idea of a parcel wine from an exact plot and hence having a historical or traditional name. —Elena Walch Our next video takes place in one of the Elena Walch unique VIGNA: Kastelaz.

Theo Zierock on the Dolomites, Teroldego, and the Vineyards of Agricola Foradori Episode #84 of Understanding Wine with Austin Beeman Agricola Foradori is located in the Piana Rotaliana, a 700 hectare region in Italy surrounded by the Monte di Mezzocorona, the Grandos, and the Adige Valley. The region is known for its unique soil composition, formed by the accumulation of ice and snow during the last ice age and the subsequent melting of a glacier, which washed sand and various types of mountain stones, including dolomite and porphyry, onto the land. The soil in the region varies in its intensity and thickness, with some areas having a higher density of stones and others having a more sandy substrate. This diversity in soil composition results in distinct characteristics in the wines produced by Agricola Foradori, with those grown in denser soil tending to have more density on the grapes and less fruit, but also denser fruit, and those grown in sandy soil having lighter, crunchier, and juicier wines with less density. The acidity and variety of the grapes also play a role in the aging potential of the wines produced by Agricola Foradori.
