Alexandra Cina   Music - by Woodstock Dude - Gletscherfee @woodstock_dude Vinotainment by De Canali Salgesch www.decanali.ch Infos zu Alexandra Cina - www.alexandracina.ch     Also ich würde Alexandra sofort bei mir im Radio anstellen. Als Korrespondentin Kunst Kultur und Gluschtigs. Die Alexandra hat eine Effizienz, das ist unglaublich. Kontaktiert und zäg pädäbäng eine Sprachnaricht in der mobilen Telefonmaschine mit allen und noch mehr Infos als angefragt.   Wir wollten ja einfach so an Hengert hä. Aber wer Alexandra Cina kennt oder eben nun kennen lernen möchte,  und ja der wer mich kennt ok,  und die wo nicht…. Können nein lieben und ja eben kennen und können  ! Also das war schon mal was betreffend viel zum Betreff kennen lernen?    Alexandra Cina ist ja auch so wie ich eine Tausendsässin ! Sie war auch tief beeindruckt von Tanja Fux - der Dienstschefin in den Turnschuhen und  der Aussage betreffend Verzettelung : wer in seinem Job glücklich ist - verzettelt sich weniger und wir guckten uns an und ja ? Alexandra die Künstlerin - Paint and Zip und ja Lehrerin - Mutter - Ehefrau - Projektleiterin der Theaterbande der OS Goubing mit dem Stück - als ich ins Geschichtsbuch fiel. Mal malt sie Bilder, kreiert individuelle Kunst Events für Firmen, Jahrgänger:innen Treffen, Stag Night u.v.m oder sie macht Glühweinseife.    Das mit der Weiterbildung zur Feng Shui Beraterin lassen wir mal aussen vor und Hui Hui Hui hat die Alexandra was drauf. Ihre Bilder in hellen wunderschönen beruhigenden Tönen und ja sie macht auch Auftragsbilder. Da gibt es sicher die eine oder andere Anekdote in dischum Hengert.    Im Land der Tschugger und der Tschutter - Salgesch - beidsprachig - vielsprachig - offen - ging sie zu den Gelben - her Mum was not amused !  Ach ja und wieso wir das mit dem Feng Shui nicht beantworten wollten? Gang doch ga ping pong. A bon - wie die Salgescher:innen öfters sagen !  Nein das Feng Shui bieten inzwischen so viele an und manche noch viel professioneller und deshalb Fokus auf die Kunst.   Don`t thin to much / Kunst wischt den Staub des Alltags von der Seele. ( Pablo Picasso ) / Freiheit bedeutet, das man nicht unbedingt alles so machen muss, wie andere Menschen ( Astrid Lindgren )  Auch der Saas-Feer Künstler Werner Zurbriggen inspirierte Alexandra und bei der Erlebniswoche mit den Schulkindern war ein Ausflug ins Haus des Künstlers eine abwechselndes Erlebnis.   Jeder hat ein Vogel, aber nicht alle den gleich grossen Käfig so ein Zitat von Werner Zurbriggen. Kunst ist aber nicht alles im Leben von Alexandra? Aber trotz allem lies eine Frage noch auf eine Antwort warten - wenn ein normaler Mensch expressive abstrakte Bilder malt - gilt er als Verrückt - so in den eher kleinen Gemeinden des Wallis? Bist du aber dann verrückt - dann darfst du in der Psychiatrie Bilder malen !?   Dazu braucht es Mut in einer Umgebung, die dem Flachmaler mehr Verständnis entgegenbrachte als dem Kunstmaler und für letzteren vielleicht ein Mitleidiges oder verlegenes Lächeln übrig hatte. Aus dem Buch von Werner Zurbriggen   Aber Alexandra ist eben auch Sekundarlehrerin ( Phil.l. mit bildnerischem Gestalten ). Als Lehrerin arbeitet sie mit den OS Schüler:innen Goubing = die Theaterbande gerade am Stück - als ich ins Geschichtsbuch fiel und darüber gibt es einiges zu berichten - auch im Podcast ? Sicher aber auch immer mal wieder in den Alpensendungen von Radio Supersaxo.    Aber ich wollte ja auch noch über Paint and Zip schreiben? Hab ich schon? Aber Rotwein am Morgen und ob das dem bildnerischen wie genau hilft? Gut Weisswein regt an und manche auf und ja Fendalismus ! Die Frau Cina - auf manchen Bühnen zu Gast und meine Mama meint ja immer - man kann nur auf einer Hochzeit tanzen und wieso nun der Hochzeitstanz auch bei vielen so der letzte Tanz war? Gut das tut nichts zum Thema ? Nein mal ehrlich : mit wem haben Sie zum letzten mal getanzt und wann ?    Alexandra macht sich aber auch vielen Gedanken und gerade bei Thema - Engagement Umweltschutz kam einiges zusammen ! Sie welche unter anderem nun auch schulmässig mit den Schüler:innen kocht - einkaufen - regional und saisonal aber eben da fängt es an - Budget klein = Bio - Regional - Saisonal noch möglich? Aber auch bei der Auswahl von Seifen und andersartigen Abwaschmitteln legt Alexandra wert auf sehr wenig Chemie.    Sozial ? Ist sie ja den ganzen lieben Tag lang und nein Vereine ? Sie liebt den Ausritt auf Ihrem Pferd als Ausgleich zu den täglichen Strapazen doch hat man bei Alexandra das Gefühl - das was sie tut - tut sie gerne ! Und ja ob ihr Lieblingswort etwas mit Tschugger gemeinsam hat ? Kennt Sie Bax persönlich ?    Zum Schluss schon wieder Cholera und Lieblingswort äbu ja was mit Steinen ! Weintechnisch gibt es viel gutes aus dem Keller ihres Bruders - de Canali - ihren Pinot Alexandra, den Gamay aber auch Pinotage wirklich super fein ! Drinking Song ? Irgend was von Gotthard ?  War sonst noch was - nei wirklich a tollä Hengert xi - Merci Alexandra u bis zum Theater im November in Salgesch ! 

Sør-Afrika har vært vinland siden 1600-tallet, og nå har Tom tatt med seg en flaske Shiraz, som han mener nesten bør kalles nasjonaldrue der nede.

In this week's episode, we're joined by Heinrich Venter, sales manager of Kanonkop Wine Estate, a popular South African wine producer known for its high-quality red wines, particularly Cabernet and Pinotage. Heinrich shares the winemaking philosophy that has guided Kanonkop for generations.

Back again and, after flirting with a hiatus, clearly looking to make up for lost time. A simple episode on Regions of the world very quickly became an out of control epic. Overrunning, Wadsack unleashed, the episode went into hyperdrive and so has been edited into two parts. This, the first, deftly weaves the journeys of some grapes throughout the world. From the Dynastic Carmenet family of grapes to the more parochial Zinfandel and Pinotage. From Bordeaux to California, via South Africa with stop-overs in Italy and others. When I say 'deftly' it obviously does stop us from some rambling through Mad Men and Liverpool FC on a couple horses of the Apocalypse… Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The wine trade is about passion. From vineyard management to marketing, without the passion, one could never overcome the headwinds. Multiply the headwinds by 10 when trying to open new markets for smaller wineries and lessor known districts. Heinrich Venter tells us all about those headwinds...couple with the passion to get it done.

Ok, let's be honest. Pinotage is a TRIP. It is like no other wine we have ever had before, and is flat out an experience that you have to try. You may not love it, or even like it, but you have to try it. Especially the Coffee Pinotage which in and of itself is an adventure (and is really a thing)! Pinotage is a wine that was invented in South Africa about 100 years ago, and is considered its signature wine. A cross between Pinot Noir and Cinsault, it has a smell and taste that is unique, interesting, and hard to pin down. Take from that what you will. In this episode, we discuss the wine industry in South Africa, which is bigger than you may think, and give some history about the wine. But mostly we taste and review Pinotage, and, to be transparent, we do not hold back on what we really think. Don't worry - it's pretty fun!

Are you curious about new South African wine styles and regions to try? What do most people misunderstand about Pinotage wine? Is it really necessary to spit when doing a wine tasting? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with international wine and spirit judge Dr. Winnie Bowman. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Highlights How can you distinguish between competition medal values and avoid misleading wine labels? What was it like for Winnie to teach hotel students who were reluctant to spit during wine tasting? Which aspects of the South African wine industry would probably surprise you? How did certain wine regions in South Africa transform their reputations and become highly sought-after? Where did some of the misconceptions around Pinotage originate and what are the facts? What does Winnie love about Creation Glenn's Chardonnay and what can you expect when tasting? Why should South Africa be on your must-visit list of wine regions?   Key Takeaways I loved listening to Winnie talk about new South African wine styles and regions to try as well as the fact that the country gets so many sunshine hours for ripening and deepening flavour. I appreciated her background on the Pinotage grape and that it's not the robust wine that many people assume it is, and can be quite elegant. Her story about the fellow judge not spitting was delightful.   Join me on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube Live Join the live-stream video of this conversation on Wed at 7 pm ET on Instagram Live Video, Facebook Live Video or YouTube Live Video.

This episode is the second half of our conversation with Jolandie Fouché of Wolf & Woman Wines. If you haven't listened to part 1, I would encourage you to go back and do so before listening to this one. In this episode, we talk about Jolandie's wines and her experiences in the South African wine industry. Here's a preview: "The other day, somebody asked me, "Do you actually want to be a serious winemaker?" ...You would never receive that kind of comment in you were a man. Never, ever, ever, ever." We left off the first episode hearing about how Jolandie took the jump into doing Wolf and Woman full time, and how prior to that, she was still the head winemaker for Kloovenburg and doing Wolf and Woman on the side. One of the stipulations that Kloovenburg gave her was that she couldn't produce any varieties that they produced, and that basically left her with three red cultivars, one of which was Pinotage. But as well all know, Pinotage has historically been a hit or miss variety, and most of what was on the market at that time was a miss...   Hosted by Charlotte Alsaadi.

Today's episode is with Jolandie Fouché of Wolf and Woman Wines based in Swartland, South Africa. These wines, which we imported for the first time last year, were an instant success. They're absolutely phenomenal varietal wines, and the range includes Chenin Blanc, Grenache Blanc, Grenache Rose, Pinotage, and Syrah. After more than a decade of earning her stripes in the South African wine industry, Jolandie decided to turn her attention to her passion project, Wolf & Woman Wines, fulltime. Shortly after releasing her maiden vintage in 2018, Jolandie's Chenin Blanc won the Tim Atkin White Wine Discovery of the Year award, and her 2019 Chenin was awarded as a Chenin Champion by Jancis Robinson in the Financial Times alongside some of the well established names like the Sadie Family, Chris Alheit, the Mullineuxs. Jolandie's wines, as their name implies, are wild. I think they're some of the most energetic wines in our book, and just like a dog that ressembles its owner, I think that energy is a reflection of Jolandie. She's without a doubt one of the most exciting new wave producers to watch from South Africa. Her interview is split up into two parts. Part 1 focuses on her background, and part 2 focuses on the wines and her experiences in the South African wine industry. I really, really encourage you to listen to both. In this episode, you'll hear how Jolandie went from being the head winemaker at Kloovenberg to taking her side hustle full-time. Keep in mind that this was during the middle of the pandemic, when South Africa was going through alcohol sales, bans and lockdowns, and on top of that, Jolandie had just had her first child. Keep listening to find out how she channeled her inner wolf to keep going...     Hosted by Charlotte Alsaadi.

Jennifer and Kent Molgat from The View Winery and Vineyard and Ward's Cider in Kelowna are on the podcast this week! If you have a copy of The Sipster's Pocket Guide to 50 Must-Try BC Wines, volume 1 – turn to page 108 (reminds me of “helm to 108!” – if you know what movie that is from, leave a comment on the website…) where you will find the View's Pinotage Reserve featured there – an amazing wine that they have been growing and making there since they started. It's kind of a Cinderella wine in that it is underappreciated and nobody really understands just how beautiful it is. AND IT IS! I've had it through several vintages over the years and good vintage or bad vintage, it's always a great wine, which is why I featured it in Volume 1. I've met Jennifer many times over the years but Kent only on the odd occasion. He is a professional broadcaster and so I hope I was able to up my game above being a hack podcaster in his presence. I think I did ok. Thank goodness for editing. We had a great time and probably could have chatted for a lot longer. Hopefully, they will come back again soon. Email your answers to this week's Big Question, your comments or questions, or your special wine experiences to me at sipsterswinepodcast@gmail.com!Support Sipsters by subscribing!Find us online at Sipsterswinepodcast.ca.Thank you for listening!

Through quality, innovation and sustainability, Monte Creek Winery in the Thompson Valley, is turning unique growing conditions into award winning premium wines. Situated on the biodiverse 1,200-acre property just a 10-minute drive outside Kamloops City, Monte Creek Winery offers guests a breath-taking view of 75-acres of vines.With our focus set on sustainability, our wines are crafted with an understanding of the land's geological history, the surrounding environment, and regenerative farming techniques; allowing our experienced team to create wines that represent this land. Our tasting room is open year-round, welcoming visitors to taste, shop, dine, or host private events in BC's newest appellation, the Thompson Valley.

As a small winery we can put more time, attention, and care into our wines (than the larger wineries can afford to, really). So in order to make wines of the highest quality, we: 1. Select vineyards that are farmed with the greatest level of care. 2. Focus on single varietal and single vineyard. Single vineyard allows us to focus on "the place" the grapes are farmed and single varietal will show how each varietal is affected by that place (i.e. soil and microclimate). 3. Keep lots small. This provides the opportunity for gentle processing with minimal intervention. (This also grants us the freedom to have a little more fun with experimentation which, in theory, should result in more complex and interesting wines.) And finally, 4. (the most important) We put our hearts and souls into the making of this wine.It was my first harvest —interning in 2009—when my heart first fell in love. Picking Pinot Noir at the Santa Maria Gold Coast Vineyard before the sun came up. My fingers were freezing and for hours we picked and sorted. I listened closely that morning to the theories behind the growth and life of the vine. Being that connected to the earth was inspiring. Then, for three and a half years (2010-2013), I apprenticed at Sanguis, where I gained much more wine knowledge.Every decision and action, no matter how small they seemed, were of extreme importance to the outcome of the wine. The harvesting of grapes, all parts of the fermentation process (wether technical or artful), stirring of the lees, topping, racking...heck, even the stacking and lining up of barrels became a meditation of sorts. (Yes, by the way, this girl can operate a fork-lift.) And although times like re-coiling the hose over and over again might have seemed silly, it helped train me. I learned intention. My time there helped me grow an understanding and appreciation for meticulous dedication to detail and style. It was at Sanguis where I saved my pennies to journey out and buy my own fruit. In 2012, while working there, I made my first vintage and began learning on a deeper level. That path of my wine-making adventure was just starting. Today, utilizing what I was taught, it is my goal to continue working with remarkable vineyards. In discovering their nuances I hope to help guide each varietal to make a wine that will show a sense of place and style.And of course to always keep learning. Growing. Discovering. Thank you for joining me in this journey...

On the 100th episode of Concerts That Made Us Brian is joined by Jason Oosthuizen from Oooth.9th of December seen the release of Catastrophe, the new album from South African hard rockers Oooth, led by renowned drummer, guitarist, and vocalist Jason Oosthuizen. The album was recorded and produced by Jacques Du Plessis at his High Seas Studios in Johannesburg and features guest appearances from some of South Africa's most prestigious musicians, namely Albert Frost, Arno Carstens (Springbok Nude Girls), Cito (WONDERboom) and the legendary PJ Powers.“The album was written between 2021 and 2022 and mostly revolves around experiences throughout this time. Some life-changing decisions that were made, appreciation for the few consistencies in life, and some very sad and traumatic stories all played part in the writing process.” Comments Jason. He adds, "We are very excited to launch this new album, not only because we feel this is definitely our best one yet and so much more effort was put into it, but I also got to collab with some more of my favourite SA Musos, Albert Frost, Cito, and Arno Carstens. Putting it all together where I feel most at home, High Seas Studios, also played a big part in the overall excitement I feel for this album. " - JasonSince November 2018 Oooth has released 2 Studio Rock Albums, 2 Live DVDs, 1 Acoustic and 1 Acoustic live album, with some more exciting releases planned for the remainder of 2022 and 2023.

"Inserts Lion King Theme Song* Have you ever tried South African wine? Why would you want to when a Master Sommelier describes the nose and palate as "fresh road" WELL HOLD THAT THOUGHT! This wine is unique and interesting showing a different wine style that Angus had never tried before all while staying under our $30 budget. It's also most interesting to see the style of wine most palatable on the other side of the world and it's quite different to what us Australians are used to.

Chenin, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinotage are some of the well-known grapes grown in South Africa, including Swartland on the Western Cape, where Riebeek Cellars started in 1941 as a passion project for a community of farmers working collectively, and now well into their 3rd & 4th generations.

Mastering Wine with Anne McHale Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode:  1. Be inspired by Anne's journey to reach the pinnacle of mastery in wine.    2. Hear how she found her passion for wine by breaking away from the career counselor's suggestions.    3. Discover new ways to experience and understand wine with Anne's expert advice.  Resources:  My first book, Relationship Ready: How I Stopped Fucking Randos and Started Cupcaking My Soulmate, is available on Amazon and Audible.  Grab your copy now!  Subscribe to my mailing list on my website.  Visit my website to learn about my coaching programs.  Visit Anne's  website ┃Instagram ┃Twitter   Check out the Vivino wine app.    Here are the Low-No alcohol brands Anne mentioned: Seedlip and Noughty   Episode Highlights  Parlez-vous Français?   Anne grew up in Belfast, Northern Ireland in a household that appreciated wine.  After she received her Language degree at University, she was certain she wanted to do anything but what the career office suggested.  She moved to London and applied to the jobs that needed French language skills.  Her first job happened to be at a wine agency that imported French wine.     For the Love of Wine  Though Anne's father shared his love of wine with her when she was young it was as an adult that she found her own fascination in wine.  She enjoyed the industry, people, and lifestyle that shared a love of good living, food, drinking, and camaraderie.    Anne appreciated the multidisciplinary aspect of wine.  It involves geography, biology, chemistry, history, language, culture, and philosophy.  Wine can often tell a story about a time, place, and family.  It can be an intellectual and sometimes spiritual experience.    Becoming a Master  Her job started her with her first WSET (Wine and Spirit Education Trust) wine course and she continued studying wine for the next 10 years until she became a wine master.    Wine master is the highest distinction of professional wine knowledge.  She is one of only 416 wine masters in the world, of which 149 wine masters are women.  The Master of Wine study programme, as well as the advanced qualifications leading to it, is rigorous and demanding including research papers, capstone paper, and several written exams.  The Institute of Masters of Wine, of which Anne is a member, has a Diversity Committee and, in recent years, wine masters are from all over the world and from all walks of life.    The Life of a Wine Master  When consulting with restaurants on their drink menu and pairings, Anne may taste 80-90 wines in a day.  At the end of the day, although she spits out the wine, it is quite exhausting for the palette.  Anne gets to taste the amazing foods and desserts the chefs create to create the perfect drink pairing.  One of her strangest wine pairing experiences was in Australia where she paired a kangaroo dish with Shiraz.  Next month, Anne is exploring the indigenouse Greek grapes of Santorini to pair with the local foods.    Wine Education from a Master  A basic and broad rule for pairing wine is to match the richness of a wine with the richness of the food.  A light salad may be paired with a light and crisp white or a lighter crisp red.  Rich and creamy food like cheese or rich meats may be paired with a wine with a rich body.  Wine is geography.  The warmer the climate in which the grapes grow, the higher the alcohol, fuller the body, and lower the acidity of the wine.  The Chablis wine is produced in the cooler climates of Northern France.  The grape is actually a Chardonnay grape but because it's grown in the cooler region, it's quite crisp with lots of acidity and not too much body or alcohol. A Merlot grape grown in the warmer climate of Napa is going to be rich and full-bodied.  In Anne's cache of wine, the greater majority of her few hundreds of bottles are from France.  Though the rest of her collection are from all over the world.  Her least favorite wines are from a small variety in South Africa called Pinotage.  She personally does not prefer the smokiness that compares to a barbeque.    There is a No-Low alcohol-free movement in the UK and has several respectable brands.  Though spirits, beers, and sparkling wine have made a lot of progress in quality, still wine faces the challenge of achieving the balance and texture that comes from alcohol.  There is a lot of research focussed on making  no-low alcohol options that would be desirable to drink.  More Tips from a Wine Master  Shop at a local wine merchant and develop a relationship with them.  The merchants have gone to great lengths to source their wine and know about each bottle on the shelf.    Use wine apps like Vivino.  Check labels or wine descriptions to learn the words and language that are used to describe wines that you already enjoy.  Use them to communicate to sommeliers and merchants to find similar types so you can explore something different.    About Anne  Anne is based in London where she is a wine communicator, consultant, and educator.  In 2016, she founded her consultancy and education business where her massive experience and expertise led her to craft her direction in life around wine and her passions. She designs wine lists and works as an ambassador for brands and wine regions.  She offers wine education at all levels from her signature program called Diploma Therapy for WSET diploma students to wine series on Instagram.  She is involved with the Institute of Masters of Wine and many other notable wine organizations.  Enjoy the Podcast?  If you enjoyed today's episode of The Heidi B Show, then hit subscribe, and share it with your friends!  Post a review and share it!  If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.  You can also share this episode with your womenpreneur family and friends, so they can get closer to owning their power and upgrading their lives.   Have any questions?  You can contact me through email (heidi@heidibcoaching.com) or find me on Instagram or Facebook.  Thanks for listening!  For more updates and episodes, visit my website.  You may also tune in on Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify.  To pursuing our passions and building our businesses,  Heidi B
