Der Frühling ist zurück und mit ihm ein bunter Blumenstrauß an köstlichen Gerichten! Aber welcher Wein passt eigentlich zu Spargel, Bärlauch und frühlingshaften Salaten? Wie finde ich die perfekte Weinbegleitung zu Gerichten mit Kräutern wie Schnittlauch, Kerbel oder Petersilie? Und welcher Wein schmeckt zu zartem Frühlingsgemüse wie Erbsen, Kohlrabi oder Rhabarber? Gemeinsam mit Ilona Scholl, Berlins charmantesten Gastgeberin und Mitbegründerin des Sterne-Restaurants „Tulus Lotrek”, erklärt Lou, welche Weine all diese Aromen richtig zur Geltung bringen. Wein der Woche: Wein-Genuss Portugieser Rosé. Dieser liebliche Roséwein ist süffig, lecker und frisch fruchtig im Geschmack. Mit seiner unverwechselbaren Süße, dem Duft nach Himbeeren und Rhabarber sowie der weichen Säurestruktur passt der kräftig rote Portugieser hervorragend zu feinen Desserts und Trockenkuchen. Frage der Woche: Wie viele zugelassene Champagner-Rebsorten gibt es?„Für die Herstellung von Champagner sind offiziell acht Rebsorten zugelassen. Neben Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Arbane und Petit Meslier gehört auch Voltis dazu. Voltis ist eine PIWI-Rebsorte, die seit 2021 für die Produktion von Champagner zugelassen ist.” – Lou

Send us Fan MailJoining me on today's episode of the English wine diaries is Nathaniel McConnell, co-founder and winemaker at Bluestone Vineyards. With a large part of his childhood spent on the family's Cholderton Rare Breeds Farm, Nat's boots are firmly rooted in the countryside. However, he followed a different career path before returning to Wiltshire to establish Bluestone – one helping to fight cancer.Following a degree in Biochemistry at Birmingham University, Nat worked with a company who developed a new technique to better diagnose and provide more accurate prognosis for myeloma patients. His entrepreneurial spirit led him back to the family farm however where, together with his brother, Toby, he established Bluestone Vineyards. With the land prepared and the vines on order, Nat began studying an MSc in Viticulture and Oenology at Plumpton College. He met the then head winemaker of Hattingley Valley Jacob Leadley, and assistant winemaker Zoe Driver, with whom he worked two harvests and learned about quality sparkling wine production.Named Bluestone as a nod to the nearby World Heritage Site of Stonehenge, the 10-acre site comprises Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The south and south-west-facing vineyards sit on the edge of Salisbury Plain and are made of sandy, clay loam soils. Nat's first wine from 2015, was a classic blend made with grapes purchased from Hambledon and since he has produced a number of award-winning sparkling wines from the estate. We talk about what it was like growing up on a petting farm, winning Platinum at Decanter World Wine Awards and the dynamics or running two very different family businesses side by side. Keep up to date with the goings on at Bluestone by following @bluestonevineyards on Instagram or at bluestonevineyards.co.uk.This episode of The English Wine Diaries is sponsored by Rankin Bros & Sons — trusted suppliers of corks, closures, and packaging solutions to the UK wine industry since 1774.

Send us Fan MailJoining me on today's episode of the English Wine Diaries is Lucy Alford, from The Dell vineyard, in Monmouthshire. Lucy and her husband, Dan, planted 5,000 Pinot Noir and Solaris vines on their family farm between the Usk and Wye Valleys in 2022, and have recently added a further two acres of Cabaret Noir, Pinot Meunier and Souvignier Gris. Their dream of owning a vineyard started some 10 years earlier when, after getting married, they spent six-month traveling around the Southern Hemisphere on honeymoon and fell in love with wine. Life ensued and with busy careers as an ICU nurse and graphic designer working in Bristol, and then the birth of their first child, Rowan, owning a vineyard seemed like a pipedream. Until 2021, when the pandemic hit and the toll it took on Lucy, who was working on the frontline, signalled it was time for a new direction.Just three weeks after deciding to make the leap, Lucy and Dan began leasing an existing vineyard in Monmouthshire, while preparing to plant their own on Dan's family farm. Now, with a fully established vineyard – and with a second little on in tow – the family has a portfolio of still and sparkling wines, including their rose, which was heralded best still wine in Wales at the 2025 Welsh Wine Awards. Keep up to date with the goings on at The Dell by following them on Instagram @thedellvineyard or visiting thedellvineyard.co.uk.This episode of The English Wine Diaries is sponsored by Rankin Bros & Sons — trusted suppliers of corks, closures, and packaging solutions to the UK wine industry since 1774.

Süßwein – für viele ein Thema, das direkt Bilder von Kopfschmerzen und überladenen Dessertplatten weckt. Dabei steckt dahinter eine der anspruchsvollsten Kategorien der Weinwelt überhaupt. Lou und Jonas nehmen Dich mit in die süße Seite des Weinbaus und räumen auf mit Vorurteilen, die Du vielleicht selbst noch hast. Du erfährst, wie Süße im Wein überhaupt entsteht, was den Unterschied zwischen lieblich und edelsüß ausmacht und warum Eiswein, Portwein und Sauternes zu den aufwendigsten Weinen der Welt zählen. Bleibt bis zum Schluss – denn ihr erfahrt auch, warum viele Süßweine echte Prestigeprodukte sind und warum das völlig zurecht so ist. Wein der Woche Rheinberg Kellerei Beerenauslese – Rheinhessen Ein edelsüßer Prädikatswein aus handverlesenen, überreifen Trauben der EDEKA-eigenen Weinmanufaktur in Bingen am Rhein. In der Nase intensive Aromen von Aprikose, reifer Birne und Honig, ergänzt durch tropische Noten von Mango und Maracuja sowie eine zarte Vanillenote. Am Gaumen kraftvoll und konzentriert mit weicher, feiner Säure und warmen Anklängen von Mandelgebäck, Rosinen und Karamell. Ein langer, anschmiegsamer Abgang rundet diesen außergewöhnlichen Dessertwein ab – der beweist, dass große Qualität kein großes Budget braucht. Die Frage der Woche: Gibt es roten Champagner? „Nein! Auch wenn Champagner häufig aus roten Trauben wie Pinot Noir oder Pinot Meunier gekeltert wird, bleibt der Saft klar – Farbe entsteht nur, wenn die Traubenschalen mitvergären. Deshalb gibt es Rosé-Champagner, aber keinen roten. Die rote Traube, der klare Wein – das ist das Prinzip." Genau das Richtige für Deine Weinprobe und zum Üben von Verkostungen: Das Cheers!

Weine der Woche - Bio Riesling https://bit.ly/4boX37m Trocken, klar und herrlich erfrischend: Apfel und Zitrus in der Nase, dazu Limette und ein Hauch Pfirsich am Gaumen. Die typische Pfälzer Säure ist lebendig, aber gut eingebunden – ein unkomplizierter Bio-Riesling mit ordentlich Trinkfluss. -Bio Chardonnay Italien https://bit.ly/4sy61Wc Ein trockener, fruchtbetonter Chardonnay aus Sizilien mit saftigem Charakter. Reife Frucht steht im Vordergrund, begleitet von einer milden Säure – unkompliziert, rund und angenehm zu trinken. Bio-zertifiziert und gemacht für alle, die Chardonnay ohne Schwere mögen.

Außerdem kommt Chardonnay Rosé als Mutation hinzu, und der Name „Meunier“ wird oft anstelle von „Pinot Meunier“ verwendet.

Barry Herbst is here to talk about sparkling wines for the holidays on California Wine Country with Dan Berger and Daedalus Howell. Barry has been on CWC many times before. For the comparison, here is a show where he brought sparkling wines, recorded on Dec. 29, 2023. He is the wine buyer at Bottle Barn. First, Dan recaps part one, which is here on its own podcast episode page, a detailed talk about Gamay Beaujolais. Then, right here, Dan and Barry conduct a tasting and discussion of four very fine sparkling wines that Barry has brought, all of which are at Bottle Barn. Late December is one of the peaks of wine purchasing season. The first peak usually comes at Harvest Fair, that and the Press Democrat Competition before that, “gets things going.” From the end of September it starts, then pops again for the holidays. Also people stock up for June events. CWC is brought to you by Deodora Estate Vineyards. Visit Deodora to discover 72 acres in the Petaluma Gap that are producing exceptional Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Riesling. Sip the difference!  Bottle Barn also does flash sales and rare wine sales on their website. Online sales account for about a third of their business now. They didn't even have a website until 2019 but now their website is first class. Dan says it's maybe the best wine sales site in the country. It was good that they did it just before Covid. The bottle barn site is well built and works great. Barry remembers six weeks when four people did nothing but data entry, to get the site started. They had 6000 SKUs. Cremant d’Alsace Rosé Sparkling wines are the order of the day. So they pop a cork and taste Bottle Barn’s best-selling sparkling wine of all time. Cremant d'Alsace made 100% with Pinot Noir, so it's Rosé. Bottle Barn sells 600 cases per year of it. It sells for $17.99. Dan says it tastes drier than it did before. You can really taste the Rosé character and the aftertaste is “clean as a whistle,” says Dan. Cremant means sparkling in French. Sparkling wines can only be called “Champagne” if they come from the province of that name. So there are Cremant wines named for their region, such as Cremant d’Alsace. That naming rule pertains to sparkling wines from Italy, which are called Vini Spumanti or Prosecco, depending on the region and the varietals. Cava are Spanish sparklers. The new British sparkling wines might earn a new name. Seppi The next tasting is Seppi, a California product. Mostly Pinot Noir, beautiful balance, says Dan. Intense pink wine flavors with more acidity than he expected, and rounded and more full bodied. Dan also mentions a grower champagne and Barry actually has one to taste,  Lalarge Peugeot. They grow everything biodynamically. Barry notes that they have kept their prices reasonable compared to their neighbors there, in the heart of Champagne. There is more Pinot Meunier planted in Champagne than Pinot Noir or Champagne grapes. Pinot Meunier is a red wine grape but lighter than Pinot Noir.

Owner/Winemaker, Eric Hickey, and Director of DTC, Kasey Helt stopped in as Laetitia Vineyards and Winery announced a comprehensive vineyard renewal project that will remove and replant its existing estate vineyards, marking a significant milestone in the winery's evolution. This bold investment is aligned with the vision of the new ownership team that acquired the property in 2024 – to make Laetitia the destination where people celebrate life's important moments with wines worthy of every occasion, large or small. This multi-year initiative will replace the estate's aging vines, which have reached the end of their productive lifecycle. The replanting will emphasize Laetitia's heritage as a sparkling wine house, with traditional sparkling varieties including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier taking center stage, alongside additional yet-to-be-determined varieties representing the traditional grapes of Champagne. This forward-thinking approach reinforces Laetitia's commitment to quality and preserves its future for generations to come. During the replanting process, the winemaking team will work with neighboring vineyards to source premium fruit that meets Laetitia's quality standards and continue crafting exceptional Laetitia wines. About Laetitia Laetitia produces premium estate wines that showcase the exceptional character and diversity of California's Arroyo Grande Valley AVA. Established in 1982 by a respected French Champagne house, the brand carries on the traditions of Burgundy and Champagne with a focus on small-lot Pinot Noir and sparkling wines.

In dieser Folge zeigt Dir Lou, warum Bubbles zu deutlich mehr passen als nur zum Anstoßen und warum gerade die ungewöhnlichen Kombinationen oft die besten sind. Gemeinsam mit Jonas geht sie zehn Gerichte durch, die überraschen, Spaß machen und zeigen, wie vielseitig Schaumwein sein kann: von frittierten Portobellos über Mac & Cheese und bis hin zu Sommerrollen mit Sweet-Chili-Sauce. Du erfährst, warum Säure Fett bricht, warum Perlage Texturen liftet und wieso Salz Schaumwein erst so richtig glänzen lässt. Wein der Woche: Grand Plaisir Champagner https://bit.ly/49GKalE Ein klassischer Brut aus Chardonnay, Pinot Noir und Pinot Meunier – elegant, feinperlig und wunderbar ausgewogen. In der Nase verbinden sich Zitrus, helles Steinobst und ein Hauch Brioche. Am Gaumen zeigt er Frische, Struktur und eine cremige Textur, die ihn sowohl als Aperitif als auch als Essensbegleiter stark macht. Ein vielseitiger Champagner, der sich mühelos zu salzigen, leichten oder frittierten Gerichten kombinieren lässt. Frage der Woche: Welche Käsesorten passen zu Schaumwein? Gruyère: nussig, kräftig → ideal zu trockenem Champagner, weil Säure & Frucht die Würze balancieren Camembert/Brie: cremig, buttrig → passt gut zu reicheren, fruchtigeren Schaumweinen (gern auch mit etwas Restsüße) Roquefort (Blauschimmel): sehr salzig & intensiv → braucht süßeren Schaumwein (Demi-Sec), Süße gleicht Salz aus Cheddar: würzig, salzig → am besten mit Extra Brut Champagner, die Säure schneidet durch die Schärfe Parmesan: salzig, kristallin → funktioniert zu fast allem, trocken wie süß, sehr vielseitig Ziegenkäse (Chèvre): frisch, säuerlich → super mit fruchtigen Schaumweinen wie Prosecco oder Rosé-Champagner Genau das Richtige für Deine Weinprobe und zum Üben von Verkostungen: Das Cheers!

Von wegen nur Tea Time und Pubs – in England entstehen inzwischen Schaumweine, die weltweit für Aufsehen sorgen. Lou und Jonas sprechen mit Anne Krebiehl, Master of Wine, über das Comeback der Insel im Weinbau: Wo liegen die besten Regionen? Welche Rolle spielen Kreideböden, Küstenklima und Klimawandel? Und was erwartet Dich, wenn Du einen englischen Pinot Noir oder Chardonnay ins Glas bekommst? Eine Folge über Pioniergeist, Cool-Climate-Stilistik und Schaumweine, die selbst in Frankreich ernst genommen werden. Wein der Woche Gusbourne Estate Blanc de Blancs Brut 2019 Der Blanc de Blancs Brut ist das Aushängeschild des Gusbourne Estate und zeigt, wie elegant englischer Schaumwein sein kann. Der 2019er präsentiert sich in strahlendem Strohgelb mit feiner, anhaltender Perlage. In der Nase verbinden sich Noten von Brioche und reifer Birne mit einem Hauch Zitrus. Am Gaumen zeigt er Finesse, Mineralität und cremige Textur – ein klassischer Chardonnay-Stil mit Tiefe, Frische und langem, eleganten Finish. Weinlexikon: P wie Pariser Becken Das Pariser Becken ist eine geologische Formation, die sich von Nordfrankreich bis Südengland erstreckt – mit demselben Kreideuntergrund wie in der Champagne. Diese Böden sorgen für hohe Mineralität und ideale Bedingungen für Chardonnay, Pinot Noir und Pinot Meunier – die Grundlage für Englands besten Schaumwein.

Champagne must be made in the traditional method.A blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. The wine comes from the grand cru village of Verzenay in the Champagne region of France.Tonight, we are tasting:NV Kirkland Signature Brut Champagne. It is a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier grapes. The grapes come from the grand cru village of Verzenay. Matures in the bottle for 15 months. It is made by wine maker Manuel Janisson who doesn't really market his wines in the US, but his least expensive wines range from $40 to $50 per bottle. The wine has a rich texture and has notes of gingerbread, orange, peaches, and citrus. The Reverse Wine Snob reports aromas of lime, lemon, apple, and a bit of freshly baked bread and some floral. Flavors of creamy yet crisp lemon zest, lime, and green apple. Also has some minerality. Pairs with salty foods, white meat, and sweet potatoes. We both loved this wine and rated it a 4. Sparkling wine is not our go to wine, but we will buy this again. If you haven't tried it, put it on your list. Next week, we are trying a wine that is new to us. It is a German Riesling Kabinett. We will find out what that means and see if this will be our Thanksgiving wine.

Der Frühling ist zurück und mit ihm ein bunter Blumenstrauß an köstlichen Gerichten! Aber welcher Wein passt eigentlich zu Spargel, Bärlauch und frühlingshaften Salaten? Wie finde ich die perfekte Weinbegleitung zu Gerichten mit Kräutern wie Schnittlauch, Kerbel oder Petersilie? Und welcher Wein schmeckt zu zartem Frühlingsgemüse wie Erbsen, Kohlrabi oder Rhabarber? Gemeinsam mit Ilona Scholl, Berlins charmantesten Gastgeberin und Mitbegründerin des Sterne-Restaurants „Tulus Lotrek”, erklärt Lou, welche Weine all diese Aromen richtig zur Geltung bringen. Wein der Woche: Wein-Genuss Portugieser Rosé Dieser liebliche Roséwein ist süffig, lecker und frisch fruchtig im Geschmack. Mit seiner unverwechselbaren Süße, dem Duft nach Himbeeren und Rhabarber sowie der weichen Säurestruktur passt der kräftig rote Portugieser hervorragend zu feinen Desserts und Trockenkuchen. Frage der Woche: Wie viele zugelassene Champagner-Rebsorten gibt es? „Für die Herstellung von Champagner sind offiziell acht Rebsorten zugelassen. Neben Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Arbane und Petit Meslier gehört auch Voltis dazu. Voltis ist eine PIWI-Rebsorte, die seit 2021 für die Produktion von Champagner zugelassen ist.” – Lou Genau das Richtige für Deine Weinprobe und zum Üben von Verkostungen: Das Cheers!

Welcome to part two of our mini series "Champagne: Meet the Growers", in which we introduce you to some amazing Grower Champagne Domaines. In this episode we move from the the Côte des Blancs to the Vallée de la Marne, which is the home of the best Pinot Meunier in Champagne.We welcome Geoffrey Delouvin, who is the 11th generation winemaker and vigneron at of Domaine Delouvin Nowack, to The Premier Cru! Since taking over the Domaine, Geoffrey has introduced a new range of wines called, Famille Delouvin. The full range is exceptional, but perhaps the most exciting wines are those produced from Pinot Meunier which is particularly well suited to the Domaine's terroirs in the Vallée de la Marne. For a couple of his cuvees he uses a 100% Pinot Meunier perpetual reserve dating back to 1992. It is unique and adds real complexity to the wine, showing off what Pinot Meunier can achieve when handled by an expert. It was a no-brainer to interview Geoffrey when we decided to devote an episode to the variety and the sub-region.On the episode we discuss:The history of the DomaineThe rise of Pinot Meunier and why it is finally gaining the respect it deservesThe terroir of the Vallée de la Marne and why it is so well suited to Pinot MeunierWe also taste three Famille Delouvin wines on the podcast: Sauvage, Semper Fidelis and Les ChailletsIf you have not already, then please follow us on Spotify/Apple and on Instagram (⁠@The_Premier_Cru⁠) as it makes a massive difference to the channel!

Dan Berger and Rick Davis. Rick Davis, winemaker and owner Cal Star Cellars, joins Steve Jaxon and Dan Berger on California Wine Country. This is Rick's first time on CWC although we have taked about his wines before. Dan Berger says that Rick is not personally well-known because he does not promote himself. He is too busy in the winery. Rick tells his story of starting in the industry on the east coast in 1988 before coming to California in 1992. He became cellarmaster and assistant winemaker at Flower, then in 1997 he worked three vintages on the central coast. He started his own brand in 2001 with 160 cases of Zinfandel. Flowers began as a project under the auspices of Greg La Follette and it became one of the most important brands in Sonoma County history. Dan says that the Cal Star wines are some of the best wines that nobody has ever heard about. The Cal Star Lineup Cal Star makes a Sauvignon Blanc, a Chardonnay, a red and a rosé from Pinot Meunier, six different Pinot Noirs (three vineyard designates and three and three AVA blends) and two Zinfandels. He only does 1200 cases per year total volume, and he works with 11 different SKUs. Dan says its virtue is that this is how to keep track of all the different vineyards. The Sauvignon Blanc has a lot of varietal character, in Dan's opinion. He also gets varietal character from his Lodi Zinfandels. Rick is not interested in what he calls “cocktail wine” or what Dan calls a “sipping wine.” Rick got interested in wine because he likes to cook and wanted to make wine that would match the food he cooks. That sounds like the way to end up making wines that Dan Berger will like. Then they taste a 2023 Rosé of Pinot Meunier which Dan says is has strong cherry flavors. His account in Georgia called it a “porch pounder that will go with food.” This rosé is made direct to press, not by the bleeding-off process. Dan agrees that this method makes better Rosés. The red Pinot Meunier is next. It is rarely made as a red wine because it is already light in color. It's just darker than a Rosé, but it is a red. Rick describes it as Cru Beujolais without the funk factor.

Die große Cheers!-Blindverkostung geht in die nächste Runde und vor allem Jonas ist so motiviert wie nie zuvor! Dieses Mal lassen die beiden zwei Schaumweine gegeneinander antreten – genauer gesagt deutschen Sekt vs. Champagner. Oben drauf gibt's von Lou wie immer eine Extraportion Wissen rund ums Herstellungsverfahren, die Perlage und natürlich ganz wichtig den Geschmack. Also lasset die Spiele beginnen – und die Korken knallen! Weine der Woche: Grand Plaisir Champagner Brut https://bit.ly/49GKalE Der Grand Plaisir ist ein klassischer Champagner aus den Rebsorten Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier und Chardonnay mit dem Geruch nach grünen Äpfeln, Mandeln und Butterzopf. Champagner, mit seinem sowhol wach- als auch durstmachenden Geschmack, punktet nicht nur als Aperitif, sondern ist auch ein wahnsinnig guter Speisebegleiter. Er passt perfekt zu salzigen und leicht fett dominierten Speisen, denn das Salz der Speise hebt den Geschmack des Champagners positiv in den Vordergrund. Die Säurestruktur des Champagners macht den Gaumen wiederum frisch. Damit schmeckt dieser Champagner zu fast allem, was das Herz begehrt: Egal ob Seafood, Pommes Frites, Pizza Salami, Wiener Schnitzel oder Crispy Fried Chicken! Kloster Eberbach Riesling Sekt Brut Flaschengärung 2021 https://bit.ly/42l4kRi Ein wunderbarer Schaumwein aus dem schönen Rheingau, hergestellt mit der Methode der Flaschengärung. Überzeugt durch eine feine animierende Säure vom Riesling sowie Aromen von Apfelschale und ist aufgrund des edlen Charakters ein Genuss für die ganz besonderen Momente. Weinlexikon: P wie Perlage Perlage bezeichnet die Art und Qualität der Kohlensäurebläschen in einem Schaumwein.

Champagne Today, on Champagne Day, we're diving deep into the fascinating history and artistry behind the world's most luxurious bubbly. Champagne is more than just a drink; it's a symbol of celebration, elegance, and French heritage. In this episode, we'll explore how Champagne evolved from the still wines of ancient Rome to the sparkling effervescence loved worldwide. We'll look at the terroir of the Champagne region—its chalky soil, climate, and unique geography—which creates the ideal environment for cultivating grapes like Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. We'll also examine the story of the "accidental bubbles," once seen as a flaw but now the hallmark of Champagne's magic. The pioneering contributions of figures like Dom Pérignon, who refined the wine-making process, and Madame Clicquot, the Widow Clicquot who revolutionized Champagne production with the riddling method, are explored in detail. Their work, along with advancements in glassmaking and secondary fermentation methods, helped transform Champagne into a coveted product across European royal courts and beyond. The journey doesn't stop there—Champagne's rise as a global symbol of sophistication is also a testament to strategic marketing by houses like Moët & Chandon and Veuve Clicquot. Through clever branding and partnerships with high society, these producers embedded Champagne into the fabric of elite celebrations. Today, top houses still carry on this legacy, crafting blends that represent tradition, innovation, and impeccable quality, whether in sweet rosés or ultra-brut bottles. Finally, we touch on the worldwide impact of Champagne, from its stringent appellation laws to its presence in international markets, where it's synonymous with celebration and luxury. With more than 300 million bottles produced annually, Champagne's reach is global, and yet it remains distinctly French. Join us as we toast to Champagne's enduring allure and discover what truly makes it a sparkling masterpiece worthy of celebration. Looking to deepen your culinary journey beyond the podcast?

Welcome back to Series 10 of The English wine Diaries. Joining me on the first episode of this series are Katie and Umut Yesil from Riverview Crouch Valley Vineyard in Essex.  Prior to planting their vineyard in the now famed Crouch Valley, the couple ran a food and drink PR business in London, but following a conversation around the kitchen table with Katie's father Billy – a third generation arable farmer – they decided to focus their attention on English wine.  In 2017 they set about converting 11 acres of land on the family farm into a vineyard, planting the traditional Champagne varieties of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier with a view to make sparkling wine.  However, when the grapes from their first harvest in 2020 came back with incredible sugar levels, they decided to produce single varietal still Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. These have already received rave reviews from wine critics and have been placed in fine dining restaurants across the UK. We talk about English still versus sparkling wine, winning rave reviews for their wines and what might be the future for winekmaking in Essex's Crouch Valley.

On this week's episode of The English Wine Diaries is Gail Gardner, Managing Director of Ashling Park Estate in the charming hamlet of West Ashling near Chichester.It was after Gail spent some time living in Switzerland and was seduced by the romantic vineyards there that she convinced her family to plant vines back in Sussex and, in 2018 their English wine adventure began. They planted the traditional champagne varieties of Chardonnay, Pinot noir and Pinot Meunier, as well as some Bacchus and Pinot Precoce, and have gone on to produce sparkling and still wines which have won numerous awards. But with a fabulous estate at her disposal and a career in marketing, Gail wasn't happy to settle for just producing award-winning wines. So, along with her team, she has developed Ashling Park into a thriving tourist spot that not only offers vineyard tours and tastings but a stunning first floor restaurant with views across the vines, luxury accommodation, designed by Lewes-based architect and Channel 4 Amazing Spaces co-host, William Hardie and there's even a gin-making school. We talk about the future of Sussex's wine tourism, the pressure to keep winning awards and how Gail hopes Ashling Park will continue to be a family affair for years to come.

Trento DOC is an appellation for white and rosé sparkling wine made in Trentino, Italy. Trentino developed this appellation, the second in the world after Champagne, to ensure quality and distinction. Only Chardonnay, Pinot noir, and Pinot Meunier with Pinot blanc are permitted, and they must be grown in a well-defined area within the Province of Trento. Trentodoc sparkling wine is produced using the Classic Method, or Metodo Classico, and made only with Trentino grapes. After harvesting by hand, the winemaking process begins. It takes time and daily work for months or years before a Trentodoc is ready. Listen for all the details about this exquisite northern Italian sparkling wine and where you can find it! With 26 gold and 36 silver medals, Trentodoc is the most awarded in Italy at the Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships 2023, the most selective and prestigious world competition dedicated to the world of sparkling wines, in which 19 countries participated with more than 1000 labels. 

Joining me on today's episode of The English Wine Diaries is Lucy Hulland from Huxbear Vineyard, situated in the rolling hills of the picturesque Teign Valley, just outside the ancient wool town of Chudleigh in Devon. Lucy and her husband, Ben, established the vineyard in 2007, planting roughly 15 acres of the three classic Champagne varieties – Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier – alongside Bacchus, Siegerrebe, Schonberger and Pinot Gris.The couple had two aims: to produce delicious English wine and to make the winemaking process as sustainable as possible. And they have managed to achieve both – not only are their wines award-winning but the vineyard is completely off-grid with all power produced from renewable sources. We talk about how Lucy, who is originally from the north of England, ended up settling in the South West, the story behind Huxbear's name and the diversity of Devon's foodie community.

Welcome back to another exciting episode of The Black Wine Guy Experience! In today's episode, we have a very special guest joining us: the one and only Barnaby Tuttle. Barnaby's journey into the world of wine began with a simple sip of Pinot Noir that captured his curiosity and ignited his passion. From there, he delved deep into the concept of terroir and embarked on a quest to expand his knowledge of wine.Barnaby's relentless pursuit of wine education took him from buying books and attending sales rep presentations to forming friendships with winemakers. As he experienced the limitations of the market, with most wines heavily extracted, he yearned to offer alternatives. This led him to focus on lighter wines that showcased nuance and balance while still appreciating the beauty of bigger wines.But Barnaby's story goes beyond wine. From his unique learning style to his fascination with electricity and plastics (yes, you heard that right), this episode delves into the diverse and intriguing facets of Barnaby's life. We'll hear about his early days washing dishes at a restaurant, his passion for gardening and cooking, and his knack for taking things slow and intentional. We'll also explore Barnaby's experiences during challenging vintages, his adventures in New Zealand, and his journey into the world of winemaking. And let's not forget his insights on food pairings, the role of wine labels, and the importance of passion and creativity in winemaking.So sit back, pour yourself a glass of your favorite wine, and join us as we dive into the world of Barnaby Tuttle on this captivating episode of The Black Wine Guy Experience.

While this lifestyle can be exciting and rewarding, it also comes with its challenges. Digital nomads have to deal with issues such as finding reliable internet connections, managing their finances and taxes across multiple countries, and dealing with the loneliness that can come with being away from home and friends for long periods of time. Nonetheless, this trend is rapidly growing and many people are choosing to pursue this lifestyle.   Here are my criteria for the DIGITAL NOMAD LIFESTYLE: MONEY/ Income Biking everywhere  No car necessary Fresh market within biking Water views  Pool Internet Immersion in Culture  Language is accessible, somewhat easy to use!!!

C'est lors d'une dégustation organisée par François Surget, œnologue et caviste parisien bien connu de nos auditeurs, que j'ai découvert les champagnes d'un vigneron indépendant bourré de talents : Pierre Trichet.     Issu d'une famille de viticulteurs, par sa grand-mère qui démarra l'exploitation viticole au lendemain de la seconde guerre mondiale puis par ses parents qui reprirent l'affaire avant de se lancer dans le champagne au début des années 70, Pierre Trichet est à la tête de cette maison de champagne depuis 1986 et n'a cessé de créer des cuvées « taillées main ».     Il m'a reçu en décembre dernier dans son village de Trois-Puits, classé Grand Cru, au Sud de Reims pour nous présenter ses cuvées et sa démarche éco-responsable.   A écouter sans modération

If you consider the Tasmanian wine industry old enough to be going through a new wave à la Swartland or South Australia, Peter Dredge (a.k.a. Dr. Edge) would be largely responsible for shifting those tectonic plates. Peter is helping to show the world that, rather than just shipping high-acid juice to the mainland for bubbly blends, Tasmania can have its own reputable wine identity. He calls his wines "unashamedly soft handed," which is an ethos he developed over the course of his time working with Brian Croser at Petaluma, Dr. Loosen in Germany, and Bay of Fires and Meadowbank in Tasmania.  We import six Dr. Edge wines, three of which fall into the “experimental” series including a skinsy Shönburger, a cheerful Pinot Meunier, and a bright Pinot Noir pet nat. The other three – Chardonnay, Riesling, and Pinot Noir - are more traditional and can be thought of as Tasmanian benchmarks.  This episode is part 1 of two. Part 1 focuses more on Peter's background, and part 2 dives a little deeper into his wines. In this episode, you'll hear how Peter decided to take a leap of faith, moving from Adelaide to Tasmania for a job at Bay of Fires before ever having visited. You'll hear how he started a tongue-in-cheek side project called “Brian Global International” which made wine in both Tasmania and Oregon. And you'll hear how at the beginning of Dr. Edge, he was making wine out of a cooperative winery located within the Museum of Old and New Art, a museum centered on the themes of sex and death. His journey in winemaking is – as he puts it – like a Game of Thrones plot, hard to keep track of all the twists and turns. But one thing is for sure: it all began on one fateful day during Peter's senior year of high school in 1995.       Hosted by Charlotte Alsaadi.

This episode we chat with the amazing and wonderful founder (and maybe my cousin Nichole Johnson)!.   About the Wine  Immerse yourself in Lapin Rouillé Champagne. Our inaugural cuvée is made in the traditional brut style, using only hand-harvested Pinot Meunier grapes from a small single estate producer near the city of Reims in La Belle France.  At Rusty Rabbit we set out to take you on a spirited journey around the world. We invite you to join us in our first steps and sips out of the warren and hop into the prestigious vineyards of Champagne, France.   Lapin Rouillé Brut Champagne is the exemplary first release from the Rusty Rabbit Drinks warren. A traditional style champagne, crafted from hand-harvested Pinot Meunier grapes from Massif de Saint-Thierry, Reims.  Dry with pronounced floral and red berry characters over juicy, vibrant acidity and light minerality.    Follow us down the rabbit hole to see where we pop up next.   100% Pinot Meunier champagne is celebrated for its light, dry and floral flavors. And Lapin Rouillé is no exception. Our champagne follows in the footsteps (or pawprints) of preeminent cuvées from the likes of Billecart-Salmon, Laherte and Egly-Ouriet.   About the Company  The newest premium black-owned Champagne brands in the world arrives today in the US market.  Launched in the UK in December 2020, Lapin Rouillé Champagne is set to woo American champagne drinkers from this week, when it becomes available. The US launch will be limited to only 1000 bottles but will be followed later this year by its sister, a Rosé Cuvée.  Lapin Rouillé is presented in a distinctive, red-wrapped bottle, showing off its inimitable gold rabbit logo. In a line-up of the world's premium champagnes, it's hard to miss.  The brand has been brought into the world by Nichole Johnson, known as The International Bootlegger and CEO of business consultancy Rusty Rabbit International, Its French name translates as, you guessed it, Rusty Rabbit.   Significantly, Lapin Rouillé is heralded as the first (and only) female black-owned champagne in the UK and one of only two brands with this claim in Europe. And with only one female black-owned champagne brand in the USA, this elevates Johnson into a unique crowd.  The Background We pay homage to Mrs. Hazel Lee Brown, the grandmother of our founder, Nichole Johnson. Hazel was born on December 28, 1929. She was the eldest of 13 children born to Oliver Small Sr. and Virgie Lee Small in Bethany, Louisiana located in Caddo Parish Louisiana.   Website: https://lapinrouille.com/products/lapin-rouille-best-champagne --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/therosehourpodcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/therosehourpodcast/support

The third episode of the English mini-series on English wines explores Cornwall with Sam Lindo of Camel Valley Estate. https://www.camelvalley.com/?msclkid=b4bf09daa60a11eca885d38a7ebd41e9A brief history ex-RAF pilot Bob Lindo and his wife Annie planted their first eight thousand vines in 1989, they never dreamed of the phenomenal success they would achieve within 2 decades. They had bought their farm in the heart of the Cornish countryside several years earlier.The second generation, Sam Lindo is now in charge of winemaking and continues to grow and develop the reputation of Camel Valley and our guests today. With him, we discussed what is like growing vines in Cornwall Camel Valley Wines and the. We have paid particular attention to their still wines made from Bacchus the UK call for Sauvignon Blanc, with the First Single-Estate appellation Granted in the UK for a Bacchus.With an excess of 1500 hours of sunshine each year, Cornwall is one of the sunniest areas within the UK, but as Sam explains only a few pockets of land can actually be planted with vines.English wine is growing in popularity and is increasingly recognised as a premium wine-producing region, with more than 450 wineries and around 3.15m bottles produced a year.The most popular grapes varieties grown in English vineyards are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Bacchus, as well as Pinot Meunier and Ortega. Whilst vineyards are found across the whole of England, the climate of the South and South-East makes it a particularly popular region for growing vines, especially in Hampshire, Sussex and Kent and Cornwall.The wine industry of Great Britain is now attracting considerable investment and boasts many wineries with state-of-the-art facilities.The nature of the wine business in the UK varies. Some vineyards have bypassed the challenge to produce their own wines and concentrate on growing grapes to sell on to other, mainly larger concerns. Some owners have leased their vineyards to other wine producers, thus reducing the overall number of players in the market. 2003 was a turning point year for English wines with the warmest year to date and amazing crops, for many producers it was the year that they decided to step uo their operations.Rember to hit the follow the podcast and as always if you have found listening to this podcast valuable, leave a review!

In the second episode of the English Mini-series, we explore Hampshire and the English viticulture with Nick Crombie, head Viticulturalist of Hambledon Vineyards. Hambledon Vineyard is England's oldest commercial vineyard which was planted by Major General Sir Guy Salisbury-Jones in 1952. In the present day, current owner Ian Kellett has a meticulous, scientific approach to wine production and has researched his vineyards to understand their micro and macroclimate.The wines are made solely Using Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier, and Pinot Noir, The Champagne varieties Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier are particularly successful alongside sparkling wines carbonated through bottle fermentation in the méthode traditionnelle. With me today is Vineyard Manager of Hambledon vineyard Nick Cran-Crombie, who talks to us about Viticulture at Hambledon and the Hampshire vineyards and the projects that are going on at Hambledon Vineyards. Interestingly Vineyards of Hampshire was the first regional English wine group to be formed, starting in 2015 with the primary aim of creating a strong, place-specific identity for the wines that almost all come from the spectacularly deep chalk soils of the county. They decided that by working collaboratively on events and creating a support network, they would have a far greater impact and a far greater chance of putting Hampshire on the map.  With NICK CRAN-CROMBIE head Viticulturalist of Hambledon Vineyard, undertook qualifications at the Royal Horticultural Society alongside landscape gardening before joining the Hambledon VineyardSome other useful links on the topic www.winegb.co.uk www.vineyardsofhampshire.co.uk www.Hambledonvineyard.co.uk https://magazine.winerist.com/england/hambledon-wines-englands-oldest-vineyard https://www.jancisrobinson.com/ocw/detail/england Reach us on Instagram lookingintowine Twitter Mattia Scarpazza Mail Info@mattiascarpazza.com
