This time in the grape miniseries -- a refresh on one of my all time favorite grapes -- Riesling. This versatile grape has a long history of quality, and is highly misunderstood by most people. I review the long and noble history of the grape, starting in 1435 and talk about how it wound up in places like the US and Australia, where it makes world class examples. I cover Riesling in the vineyard, in the cellar, and what makes a wine sweet or dry. I even explain a bit about the International Riesling Foundation scale!    I hope this overview gives you a new apprecaition for this grape that can be dry, sparkling, off-dry, sweet, and everything in between.    Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon. Join the community today! www.patreon.com/winefornormalpeople _______________________________________________________________   This show is brought to you by my exclusive sponsor, Wine Access – THE place to discover your next favorite bottle.

Tonight, we are trying a Kabinett Riesling from Mosel, Germany. Just for some added fun we also have an Emma Reichart Dry Riesling from Rheinhessen, Germany. So what is a Kabinett (Cabby – Net) and what are other words used to describe the sweetness in German wines. Trocken is the German word for dry. Kabinett has crisp acidity, green apple, citrus and delicate floral notes. Good for an aperitif and pair nicely with light seafood dishes and salads. Dry to a little sweet. Spatlese is a late harvested wine so will have riper stone fruit, touches of honeyed and tropical notes, and acidity. These wines pair well with spicy foods and soft cheeses. Auslese is made from fully ripe fruit and may even have some “Nobel rot”. It has flavors of apricot, honey, and caramelized apple. Pairs with desserts and strong blue cheese. Hint: you can often tell the level of sweetness from the alcohol level. Anything over 11% alcohol will typically be dry. Less than 11% will probably have some level of sweetness. Tonight, our two wines are: 2023 Karl Kaspar Riesling Kabinett. It is an off-dry Riesling with a classic Mosel profile. Intense mineral and floral aromas, low alcohol and a wonderful balance between sweetness and crisp acidity. The grapes come from two single vineyard sites of stoney, slate soil. Grapes of different ripeness levels are used. 45% Riesling Spatlese from middle Mosel and 55% Riesling Kabinett from the lower Mosel. Fermented in stainless steel tanks. Serve well chilled. Excellent aperitif or with fish or poultry. 2024 Emma Reichart Dry Riesling. This wine was purchased from Trader Joe's for $5.99 and comes from the Rheinhessen region of Germany. Flavors of peach, citrus, and slate. Crisp. The wine received a Bronze Award and a score of 88 from Decanter. This is considered a medium-dry wine with residual sugar from 5 to 18 g/L. It has 11.5% alcohol.We both liked the wines and gave them a three rating. Denise liked the Emma Reichart, but I found it to be a little sweet and lacked the balance of the Karl Kaspar. Next week, we return to the USA. We will taste the hybrid wine grape Baco Noir. The wine comes from New York, and we will also talk about its wine industry.

In this sensory-driven episode, Janina is joined by Sietze Wijma, founder of The Art of Tasting, to explore how flavour molecules shape our experience of wine. From chemistry to culture, Sietze shares how our environment, memories, and even our saliva can change what we taste in the glass. Together, they unpack the science behind wine aromas, tasting faults, and why perception is as much about learning as it is about the senses.   Shownotes [00:26] Janina introduces her guest, Sietze Wijma, recognised at the 67 Pall Mall Global Communicator Awards for his work blending sensory science and wine education. [01:49] Quick wine fact — how saliva enzymes alter sweetness and release fruity aromas in Sauvignon Blanc. Based on info from The Cynic's Guide to Wine by Sunny Hodge (Guest on Ep 232) [03:41] Sietze explains The Art of Tasting and how adding isolated flavour compounds helps students identify key aromas. [04:31] How flavour molecules like those in green bell peppers naturally occur in wine. [05:28] Using “spiked” neutral wines as a training tool before tasting commercial wines. [06:19] Butter, vanilla, and yogurt notes — breaking down malolactic fermentation, oak ageing, and lees stirring. [08:00] How culture shapes perception: diacetyl (buttery aroma) described as baklava in Turkey or dahi in India. [09:36] Sietze's journey from studying flavour chemistry in beer to founding his own wine-focused aroma lab in the UK. [11:03] The “bird-watching” analogy — tasting is about recognition, not sensitivity; anyone can train their palate. [12:57] Identifying key wine aroma families — pyrazines, TDN, and rotundone — and how they appear in specific grape varieties. [13:55] Pyrazines and their link to green bell pepper notes in Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Franc, and Carménère. [15:10] TDN and the petrol character in Riesling — how sunlight and bottle age intensify the aroma. [17:04] Rotundone and the black-pepper signature of cool-climate Syrah and white-pepper notes of Grüner Veltliner. [20:04] How different cultures interpret the same aroma — ginseng and pyrazines in Chinese Cabernet Sauvignon. [21:27] The “ladybug taint” — an uncommon wine fault caused by crushed beetles releasing pyrazine compounds. [23:32] Common wine faults explained: cork taint (TCA), reduction, light strike, oxidation, and brettanomyces. [28:09] Story time — Sietze recalls mistaking oxidation for an open-too-long bottle in Austria. [30:14] Brettanomyces and the fine line between savoury complexity and spoilage. [32:31] The Château de Beaucastel example — when Brett becomes part of terroir and debate. [33:13] Tasting myths: why aromas like “green bell pepper” don't mean actual allergens in wine. [34:37] How to improve blind tasting skills at home using aroma kits and DIY spiked wines. [36:28] Why tasting side-by-side is key to better identification and learning. [37:55] The “mouseiness” fault — why some aromas appear only after tasting due to pH and acidity. [42:46] Helen Keller's quote on scent and memory — a poetic close to a science-rich episode.

Heute gibt's einen Deepdive in eine der spannendsten Weinregionen Deutschlands: die Mosel. Gemeinsam mit Ansgar Schmitz geht's auf eine Reise entlang des Flusses – von Saar und Ruwer bis zur Terrassenmosel. Dabei erfährst Du, was die Region so besonders macht: vom legendären Schieferboden über die spektakulären Steillagen bis hin zu den Rebsorten, die diese Region prägen. Außerdem gibt's Tipps für die schönsten Wein- und Wanderwege – vom bekannten Moselsteig über den Calmont-Klettersteig bis zu neuen Biodiversitäts-Pfaden wie dem Zippammer-Weg und dem Insekten-Art-Weg. Weine der Woche 2022 Riesling Hochgewächs feinherb Ein klassischer Mosel-Riesling mit feinem Duft nach grünem Apfel, Zitrus und weißen Blüten. Am Gaumen saftig und frisch, mit harmonischem Spiel aus zarter Süße und lebendiger Säure. Die Schiefermineralität sorgt für Klarheit und Spannung – ein unkomplizierter, aber charaktervoller Wein, der perfekt zu asiatischen Gerichten, leichten Fischspeisen oder einfach zum Feierabend passt. 2023 Dr. Loosen Weißburgunder Trocken Ein eleganter Weißburgunder mit feinem Duft nach Birne, Pfirsich und einem Hauch Passionsfrucht. Am Gaumen treffen saftige Frucht und eine kühle, mineralische Frische auf dezente Holznoten – typisch für die Schieferböden der Mosel. Harmonisch, rund und dabei wunderbar trinkanimierend – ein Burgunder, der zeigt, wie vielseitig die Mosel neben dem Riesling sein kann. 2024 Riesling Kabinett edelsüß „Alte Reben“ Der „Ohligsberg“ ist eine der Spitzenlagen an der Mosel – sonnendurchflutet, vom Schiefer geprägt und bekannt für filigrane, verspielte Kabinettweine. Dieser Riesling duftet nach Orange, Birne, Aprikose und einem Hauch Mango. Durch die spontane Vergärung gewinnt er an Tiefe und Komplexität, während die feine Fruchtsüße perfekt mit der lebendigen Säure harmoniert. Ein leichter, hochpräziser Wein, der die Kunst der Mosel-Kabinette meisterhaft zeigt. Lous Weinlexikon: B wie Biodiversität Biodiversität bedeutet Vielfalt – von Pflanzen, Tieren und Mikroorganismen im Weinberg. Begrünungen, Trockenmauern und Blühstreifen schaffen Lebensräume für Insekten und Vögel, fördern die natürliche Balance und machen Weinberge widerstandsfähiger. So trägt Biodiversität nicht nur zum Erhalt der Natur bei, sondern auch zu gesünderen Reben und nachhaltigerem Weinbau.

Manche Menschen sprechen über Wein, als wollten sie ihn erklären. Evangelos Pattas spricht, als würde er ihn erinnern. Er ruft ihn herauf – aus dem Glas, aus dem Jahr, aus einem stillen Ort im Inneren, an dem Geschmack zu Bedeutung wird. Wenn er ein Glas in die Hand nimmt, scheint er die Zeit darin zu sehen. Was für andere eine Flüssigkeit ist, ist für ihn ein Gedächtnis. Und das mit einer unfassbaren Akribie. Ja, selbst nach fast vierzig Dienstjahren schreibt er diszipliniert seine Weinnotizen mit. Und in seinen Beschreibungen formt er keine Definitionen, er legt Atmosphären frei. Klingt erfunden? Nein, denn genauso hört man das in seiner Episode. Ein Schluck kann bei ihm nach dem ersten Frost schmecken, nach dem Schatten eines Waldes, nach der Farbe eines Holzstuhls im Spätsommer. Man hört ihm zu und versteht, dass Wein nicht über Worte vermittelt wird, sondern über Bilder, die sich im Kopf festsetzen wie ein Geruch in einem Kleidungsstück. Er erzählt nicht, er erinnert. Und genau darin liegt sein Zauber. Im Stuttgarter Délice war Evangelos Pattas jahrzehntelang der ruhende Punkt im Raum – Gastgeber, Sommelier, Übersetzer zwischen Küche und Glas. Ein Mann, der Weine nicht auswählte, sondern sie in einen Dialog brachte. Zwischen Koch und Gast, zwischen Duft und Textur, zwischen Erwartung und Erfahrung. Er wusste, dass eine Weinbegleitung nicht aus Paarungen besteht, sondern aus Übergängen. Er dachte in Atemzügen, nicht in Gängen. Jedes Glas war Teil einer Komposition, deren Melodie sich nur erschloss, wenn man ihr vertraute. Evangelos ist kein Mann der Worte und doch einer, der Sätze hinterlässt. In den Köpfen der Menschen, die er begleitet hat – Köche, Sommeliers, Gäste, Schüler. Er hat Generationen geprägt, ohne ein Manifest zu schreiben, einfach durch Tun. Durch die leise Konsequenz, mit der er Wein immer als Beziehung verstanden hat. Zwischen Mensch und Pflanze, zwischen Handwerk und Idee. Er hat gezeigt, dass Sommelierkunst nichts mit Inszenierung zu tun hat, sondern mit Empathie. Evangelos Pattas hat sein Leben dieser Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet. Er hat aus dem Verkosten ein Denken gemacht, aus dem Denken eine Kunst und aus dieser Kunst eine Einstellung. Eine Überzeugung, die sich weigert, Wein zu trivialisieren. Er bleibt ein Sommelier, der nichts verkaufen muss, weil er alles vermittelt: Zeit, Ruhe, Herkunft, Seele. Und wenn man ihm zuhört, begreift man, dass Wein nie das Ziel war – sondern immer das Medium, durch das ein Mensch erzählen kann, wie er die Welt sieht.

Marie-Helen Krebs prägt seit Jahrzehnten die Weinbranche wie kaum jemand sonst. Ihr Name steht für Beständigkeit, Wissen und Stil. Sie ist Vorbild, Maßstab, eine Institution. Wer Marie-Helen Krebs begegnet, spürt eine seltene Mischung aus Ruhe und Präsenz – eine, die führt, ohne zu drängen, und überzeugt, ohne zu belehren. Wein ist für sie kein Prestigeobjekt, sondern ein lebendiges Gespräch zwischen Natur, Menschen und Moment. Sie versteht die Flasche als Erzählerin – und sie selbst ist die Stimme, die dieser Erzählung Tiefe gibt. Als Sommelière des Jahres wurde Marie-Helen Krebs bereits früh ausgezeichnet. Schnell merkt man, auch in ihrer Episode: Auszeichnungen sind für sie eine Bestätigung, nicht das Ziel. Marie-Helen Krebs ist keine Legende, weil sie lange dabei ist. Sie ist eine Legende, weil sie über all die Jahre authentisch geblieben ist. Und bei aller Erfahrung ist sie nie abgehoben. Ihr Antrieb war immer die Leidenschaft für den Wein. In ihrer Arbeit verbindet sie analytische Präzision mit emotionaler Intuition – eine seltene Kombination, die man nicht lernen kann, sondern nur leben. Ihre Handschrift erkennt man sofort. Sie denkt in Jahrgängen, nicht in Vorgaben. Und sie hat die Gabe, komplexe Dinge einfach zu machen – nicht, weil sie sie vereinfacht, sondern weil sie sie wirklich versteht. Trotz ihrer Erfahrung ist Marie-Helen Krebs alles andere als nostalgisch. Sie bleibt neugierig, offen, wach. Tradition ist für sie kein Zustand, sondern ein Prozess. So ist sie über die Jahre immer dieselbe geblieben – und gleichzeitig nie stehen geblieben.

In dieser Folge geht's hoch hinaus, denn es dreht sich alles um eine spektakuläre Art des Weinbaus: die Steillagen an der Mosel. Mit dabei ist Matthias Knebel, einer der prägenden Winzer der Region und bekannt für seine ausdrucksstarken Rieslinge aus den steilsten Terassenlagen überhaupt. Gemeinsam mit Lou und Jonas erklärt er, was die Böden der Mosel so einzigartig macht, welche Rebsorten in Steillagen besonders glänzen und wie man solche Weinberge überhaupt bewirtschaftet, wenn Traktoren längst keine Chance mehr haben. Außerdem klären wir, ab wann ein Weinberg eigentlich als „steil“ gilt und warum Matthias überzeugt ist, dass sich dieser enorme Aufwand lohnt. Wein der Woche: Winningen Von den Terrassen Riesling Knebel Der „Von den Terrassen R“ ist ein puristischer Terrassen-Mosel-Riesling aus 100 % Steillagen. Er präsentiert sich mit feiner Schieferwürze und einer tiefen Mineralität, kombiniert mit hervorragendem Trinkfluss – also Terrassenmosel pur! 11 Monate auf der Vollhefe gereift, wirkt er am Gaumen enorm dicht und schmelzig, ohne dabei die Eleganz des Rieslings zu verlieren. Frage der Woche: Bringen steile Lagen grundsätzlich besseren Wein hervor? „Der klassische Vorteil, dass durch die Hanglage mehr Sonne auf die Reben fällt, war früher tatsächlich wichtig. Heute, im Zeichen des Klimawandels, spielt das allerdings eine kleinere Rolle. Entscheidend sind vielmehr die Kombination aus tief verwurzelten, oft sehr alten Rieslingstöcken, niedrigen Erträgen und den charaktervollen Böden. Diese bringen zusammen mit der guten Drainage der Hänge und den größeren Temperaturunterschieden zwischen Tag und Nacht Weine hervor, die besonders ausdrucksstark und präzise wirken.” – Lou und Matthias Genau das Richtige für Deine Weinprobe und zum Üben von Verkostungen: Das Cheers!

Gude und herzlich willkommen in Deutschlands größtem Weinanbaugebiet – dem wunderschönen Rheinhessen. In dieser Folge tauchen wir ein in die Welt der Burgunderfamilie, sprechen über die Rolle von Kellereien und Handwerk sowie die besondere Weinfestkultur der Region. Mit dabei ist eine echte Majestät: Levin McKenzie ist Winzer, BWL-Student, Podcast-Host, Riesling-Fan und amtierender Rheinhessischer Weinkönig! Er erzählt, warum Riesling zwar die wichtigste Rebsorte bleibt, die Burgunder aber immer mehr an Bedeutung gewinnen, was ihn an den Weinfesten so begeistert und welche Herkünfte er selbst am liebsten im Glas hat. On top gibt's natürlich ganz viele Einblicke in die royale Arbeit eines Weinkönigs. Weine der Woche: Grey Grauburgunder trocken Qualitätswein Rheinhessen Der „grey“ Grauburgunder aus der Rheinberg Kellerei in Rheinhessen steht für modernen, unkomplizierten Weingenuss. Das Bouquet zeigt Aromen von Apfel, Birne und würzigen Kräuternoten– typisch für einen stoffigen, aber gleichzeitig schlanken Grauburgunder. Die lebhafte Säure und der elegante Trinkfluss machen ihn zu einem echten Allrounder – gleichermaßen unkompliziert wie charaktervoll. Ideal als Begleiter zu leichten Speisen wie Fisch oder Geflügel! Mit Herz & Liebe Riesling Dieser Riesling aus Rheinhessen zeigt sich als lebendiger und vielseitiger Qualitätswein. In der Nase verbinden sich elegante Fruchtaromen von Aprikose und Zitrus mit einer feinen Mineralität. Am Gaumen wirkt er frisch, ausgewogen und animierend, mit der typischen Balance von saftiger Frucht, klarer Säure und dezenter Restsüße. Ein unkomplizierter Riesling, der hervorragend zu hellem Fleisch, Fischgerichten und Pasta passt – und dabei die klassische Handschrift seiner Herkunft trägt. Frage der Woche: Wie bereitet man sich am besten auf die erste Reise durch eine Weinregion vor? „Vorbereitung ist beim Weinreisen die halbe Miete – besonders, wenn man eine Region noch nicht kennt. Ich informiere mich zuerst über die Stilistik vor Ort: Welche Rebsorten sind typisch, welche Weinstile sollte man probieren? Dafür schaue ich in die Portfolios großer Händler und achte auf Betriebe mit guter Präsenz oder Bewertungen. Wenn mir ein Weingut öfter begegnet, vereinbare ich vorher einen Termin – kleine Betriebe brauchen meist mehr Vorlauf. Eine freundliche Mail oder ein kurzer Anruf mit klaren Infos zur Personenzahl und den Wunschterminen reicht oft schon. Vor Ort lohnt es sich, genau zuzuhören, Fragen zu stellen und mitzuschreiben – nirgendwo lernt man so viel wie im direkten Gespräch mit den Menschen, die den Wein machen.“ – Lou Genau das Richtige für Deine Weinprobe und zum Üben von Verkostungen: Das Cheers!

Heute wird's mal wieder prickeln, denn es geht um deutschen Sekt! Lou und Jonas haben mit Sophie Christmann eine ganz besondere Gästin eingeladen: Studienkollegin von Lou, erfolgreiche Winzerin und heute gemeinsam mit ihrem Vater im Familienweingut tätig. Du erfährst, was ihre Rieslinge und Spätburgunder so besonders macht, warum Sekt für sie eine geniale Alternative zu Champagner ist und wie Sophie den Spagat zwischen Tradition und eigener Handschrift meistert. Wein der Woche Christmann & Kauffmann Cuvée No. 2024 Brut Nature 2021 Die Cuvée No. 2024 zeigt, wie aufregend deutscher Sekt heute sein kann. Sie verbindet die Frische und Präzision des Rieslings mit der Finesse und Struktur des Spätburgunders – kompromisslos trocken ausgebaut als Brut Nature. Feine Perlage, klare Zitrus- und Apfelnoten sowie ein Hauch Brioche machen ihn zu einem eleganten, aber gleichzeitig lebendigen Schaumwein mit enormem Trinkfluss. Ein echtes Statement, das beweist: deutscher Sekt ist längst auf Augenhöhe mit den großen Vorbildern. Frage der Woche: Warum ist der pH-Wert bei der Weinbereitung so wichtig? „Der pH-Wert beeinflusst beim Wein gleich mehrere Dinge: Er bestimmt, wie frisch und lebendig ein Wein schmeckt, wie stabil er mikrobiologisch ist und wie lange er lagerfähig bleibt. Auch Farbe, Gärverlauf und die benötigte Schwefelmenge hängen stark davon ab. Vereinfacht gilt: je niedriger der pH-Wert, desto frischer wirkt der Wein, desto stabiler ist er und desto besser kann er altern.“ – Lou Genau das Richtige für Deine Weinprobe und zum Üben von Verkostungen: Das Cheers!

When he started working at the restaurant in the early 2000s, wine was starting to boom in the Pacific Northwest, and he had to know about wine in order to better serve guests.While originally he was more interested in beer, Nicholas and his mom took a course with the Court of Master Sommeliers to understand more about wine. Many of his friends in the area worked in wine, so he joined a harvest at Betz Family Winery in 2015. After that, he worked harvests in New Zealand, California, Chile, and finally Burgundy before coming back to Washington.Later in the interview, Nicholas talks about moving to Oregon as the wine scene seemed more “punk rock.” While working at Limited Addition, he started his own wine experiments that would later set the stage for his label.

How can vines for wine thrive in Mount Etna's rocky, volcanic soils on the island of Sicily? Mount Etna is a perpetual baby in terms of its vineyard soils; constant rejuvenation of the soil through ash and lava impacts the vine's health and the resulting grape characteristics. The lava flows are centuries old and vary widely. So, how would a producer choose one flow over another for planting? How does Mount Etna still have pre-phylloxera vines that are over 200 years old? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Ben Spencer, the award-winning author of The New Wines of Mount Etna. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Highlights Why did Ben find Fabio Costantino of Terra Costantino such a fascinating and emblematic person from Etna's wine community? What is the landscape of Mount Etna like, and what makes it unique and beautiful? How do producers on Etna choose which lava flow to plant on? What does it look like to grow grapes in a place as fertile as on Etna? How do Etna wines compare with other volcanic wines? Are field blends of different grape varieties still common in Etna's vineyards? How does Nerello Mascalese compare to Pinot Noir grapes? Why is Nerello Cappuccio mostly used in blends rather than as a single varietal wine? How does Carricante, Etna's signature white grape, develop the kerosene or petrol aroma often found in aged Riesling? What were some of the oldest vines Ben has seen on Mount Etna? How can you get the most out of a trip to Etna? Who would Ben love to share a bottle of wine with?   Key Takeaways How can vines for wine thrive in Mount Etna's rocky, volcanic soils on the island of Sicily? It's very, very fertile and you can plant just about anything. The vines are only part of that biodiversity. You can put a grafted vine selection, masala, cutting from your own vineyard into the earth. What it taps into will sort of define what that vine will be. We see 95% of the vines take because the soil is so fertile. Mount Etna's lava flows are centuries old and vary widely. How would a producer choose one flow over another for planting? Sometimes it's a simple budgetary decision or a farming decision, whether to take over an old vine vineyard or to buy something and replant new vines, whether you want to face the contours of the mountain, or if you want to ease into it with tractor or some sort of mechanized labor, not that many producers do much more than use a tractor in the vineyard, it's very difficult to use heavy machinery on it, and everybody harvests by hand. But certain contrada, certain lava flows, the age of the soil, the slope, east, north, south, they have different flavors. They have different spices, and it's all that lasagna layering of the mountain. It has its own style. How does Mount Etna still have pre-phylloxera vines that are over 200 years old? On Etna, we don't have a lot of clay. So we do have these very, very old vines. The soils need about 3% clay to incubate phylloxera over the winter. And so the soil isn't old enough to have that much clay in it. There's also the snow up at elevation, so it's just inhospitable to the louse.

Join hosts Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter on another episode of The Bourbon Road podcast, recorded live from the Corner Rick House in Frankfort, Kentucky. They are joined by a special returning guest and friend of the show, Diane Strong, for an exclusive preview of the highly anticipated 2025 Bourbon on the Banks Festival. Diane gives listeners the ultimate insider's guide to the festival, taking place on Saturday, October 4, 2025. She reveals this year's title sponsor is the local and historic Benson Valley Bourbon. Get ready for an unforgettable, free afterparty at the farmers' market, featuring a full bar, food, a cigar lounge, and an incredible musical lineup with local favorites Creek Water opening for headliner Noah Thompson, the 2022 winner of American Idol. Diane also details the full schedule of events leading up to the main festival, including a Thursday mixology class, the kickoff party at Whiskey Thief, the Friday VIP event celebrating Women in Bourbon, and a special bourbon pairing lesson, "The Stave is the Rage," with the world-renowned Peggy Noe Stevens. The highlight of the episode is a special tasting of four of the twelve exclusive single barrel selections that will be available for purchase at the festival. These unique barrels were hand-selected by the Bourbon on the Banks team and will be prominently marked by 7-foot flags at the distilleries' tents. The expressions tasted on the show include: Angel's Envy Port Finish Single Barrel Pick: The tasting kicks off with this crowd-pleasing pour. The hosts discover inviting notes of campfire, overripe berries, and dark vanilla on the nose. The palate is savory and rich, carrying over those ripe berry notes from the fortified wine finish, making it a perfect pairing for a fine cigar. Casey Jones Distillery Single Barrel Rye: This selection comes with a great story—the picking team was tied, so they let the distillery make the final choice on this fantastic rye. It's described as a "bourbon drinker's rye" that surprised the panel during the blind selection. It features a complex nose of tobacco, mint chocolate, and honey, with a palate that delivers notes of candied orange and caramel apple. Bespoken Spirits 12-Year Single Barrel: A truly unique offering, this 12-year-old Barton-sourced bourbon is finished in Riesling wine barrels. It immediately impresses with a rich, aged nose of mature oak and concentrated fruit. The hosts praise it as an "exceptional whiskey," with a massively concentrated flavor profile that makes it a perfect special-occasion nightcap. Short Barrel 8-Year Single Barrel Bourbon: The tasting concludes with this powerhouse, an 8-year-old bourbon distilled at the former OZ Tyler distillery (now Green River) and bottled at a staggering 135.7 proof. Despite the high proof, it offers a beautifully complex palate with notes of milk chocolate, chewy cherry, burnt caramel, nougat, and a hint of sandalwood. Tune in for incredible stories, detailed tasting notes, and your complete guide to one of Kentucky's premier bourbon festivals. For those who want to attend, Diane urges listeners to act fast, as tickets for many events are limited or already sold out.

Ventura Smalley, Harry Duke, Cathy Ratto and Dan Berger. Dan Berger and Harry Duke are in the studio together on California Wine Country today on the Italian holiday of Ferragosto. Our expected guest was not available. California Wine Country is brought to you by the 40th annual WineSong! Ferragosto is the Italian holiday celebrated on August 15th. It is the middle of summer vacation season in Italy. It is also a religious holiday, the Catholic Feast of the Assumption. Dan describes the rich history of Ferragosto and how a holiday with ancient roots is still an annual occurrence. Dan Berger has brought a bottle of his Bahl Fratty Riesling, and several other wines. The Bahl Fratty is probably the driest Riesling ever made anywhere. There are also some red wines to taste. Bahl Fratty Bahl Fratty is Boontling for good wine. There is a typewriter on the label, which reminds us of Dan Berger's illustrious career as a print journalist. The 40th Winesong Weekend Celebration is Sept. 5-6, 2025. Click the Winesong 40th logo for details. The next among the wines that Dan Berger has brought today is a 2024 Chateau Montelena Riesling. They have been making this exact same wine for a long time. It has aromas of tropical fruit, pineapple, a spice component, it's not entirely dry, but it's not sweet, just barely off-dry. It would go well with Thai or Chinese food. Riesling is a grape variety that requires a cooler climate, or if not cool, it needs high winds to cool it off. There is only a little Riesling left in Russian River Valley, and some in Carneros and Petaluma Gap. Harry asks Dan to tell about how Steve Jaxon introduced himself and invited Dan to join the show. They met for coffee and did a show that day, and have done it weekly since 2017, eight years ago. "It's been an absolute blast," says Dan. Dan mentions a lot of our regular guests, people with a great story to tell, like Don Chigazola from Chigazola Merchants, Alan Baker from Cartograph Wines, Darryl Miller from Delingher Wines. People travel long distances sometimes, to be on the show. Carol Shelton is another favorite, and Harry agrees. Ferragosto Dan describes the Italian holiday of Ferragosto, pronouncing it almost correctly, so Chris DiMatteo in Los Angeles calls in with the right sound and little more about the story of this important Italian holiday. This gives Chris the chance to raise a glass of Dan Berger's Bahl Fratty Riesling and to toast Steve Jaxon, who has been a friend and mentor to Chris. Cin-cin, maestro! Dan's next tasting is a 2018 Syrah from Carneros. Syrah is considered a warm climate variety and Carneros is a cool region. So Dan decided to give it a few years to test it and it turned out to be "really really good." It's not a dark red but has a white pepper character. It was released probably is 2021 and the white pepper component has developed. It also has some dried violet character, which Harry can't confirm. Cuvaison has been in business for close to 50 years and has owned that vineyard for about that long. This wine produces "an explosion of flavors" says Harry.

Peter Jakob Kühn made the wines at Weingut Peter Jakob Kühn in Germany's Rheingau region for many decades before retiring and passing the family winery on to his son Peter Bernhard Kühn.Peter Jakob, who was born in 1954, alludes to the constrained economic situation that existed in the German countryside following the Second World War. He recalls his grandfather, who had lived through two World Wars, and the relationship that his grandfather had with the rest of the family. Peter Jakob then describes meeting his wife and taking over the family winery in 1979 in the wake of his father's death. He recalls what steps he took to improve the quality of the wines and add to the size of the estate in the early days after assuming control. He contrasts his approach to the vineyards with the post-War emphasis on high yields that some of neighbors pursued. Peter Jakob speaks about a trip to Burgundy that served as an early inspiration. He also describes the setting and landscape of the area within the Rheingau where the winery is situated.Peter Jakob converted the estate to Biodynamic farming, and he describes the very personal reasons for that and other key decisions. As the quality of the wines improved, so did Peter Jakob's level of satisfaction with his own wines and their renown in the critical press. Peter Jakob describes how his mindset changed in response to both praise and some failure from others to understand the direction he was taking the wines. Specifically, he addresses the 1999 vintage for the winery and the malolactic conversion that took place in that year and others afterwards. He then talks about how a malolactic conversion changes the characteristics of a Riesling, and describes his vision for what a Riesling can be. Then he contrasts that vision for a Riesling with the stereotype of a racy, fruity German Riesling, which he was trying to avoid. Looking back from this vantage point, Peter Jakob describes the importance of his experimental phase in the early 2000s, as he tried different techniques in the winery. He also pinpoints his motivations for making those experiments and changes in the winery. He further discusses dry Germany Riesling and his thoughts on the topic, which are intertwined with a change in the climate as well as his personal experience. As the interview comes to a close, Peter Jakob talks about handing off the winery to his son Peter Bernhard and how he has experienced the change.This episode also features commentary from:Clemens Busch, Weingut Clemens BuschTomoko Kuriyama, ChanterêvesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Crafton took over the white wine program at Chateau Montelena in 2010, then became head winemaker in 2014. The rich history of the Chateau and the part it played in the "Judgement of Paris", cementing the New World's place on the wine map is discussed, but we went deeper in this conversation. Spend five minutes with Matt and you can tell why Bo Barrett put him in charge, with very little oversight. Matt understands the history of this iconic winery but is more focused on where they are going today. There is no tangible "style" of their wines, every vintage is an opportunity to create the best wine ever, always with an intention to age. Most consumers know them for the Chardonnay and Cab, but the Zinfandel and Riesling are a mainstay available only at the winery. There may even be some bubbles coming down the road, a celebration of 50 years is on the horizon, something deserving of a "pop". [Ep 380] @chmontelena

Admittedly Lazy Until She Found Wine And Hospitality. Meet Master Somm Stefanie Hehn

The Master Sommelier is a commitment to hospitality. So it makes you wonder what a young girl, who admittedly called herself lazy, would take on such a commitment. As life would have it, the challenges became clear to Stefanie Hehn, and each ladder rung became the next challenge. And I get it. I love hospitality. Here is her story on getting to the utmost revered  degree in the subject.   Stefanie Hehn—master sommelier extraordinaire from Hamburg's fabulous Fontenay Hotel—brings a whole philosophy to wine service that goes well beyond being just an order-taker. She tells her team their mission is to turn each guest into the superhero of their own wine story. That means memorable moments, not just pouring what's popular. From their conversation, we learn that German wine trends can be as surprising as a plot twist in a telenovela. Riesling's always beloved, but lately German Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder, for the wine geeks) is stealing the spotlight, with guest explorations into lesser-known varietals like Silvaner for adventurous diners. Stefanie is a champion of mixing the classics with hidden gems—she curates the hotel's wine list with both her guests' favorites and her personal discoveries from around the world. And just so you know, being a master sommelier isn't all swirling glasses and elegant pours—it takes a mountain of study, relentless passion, and sometimes the bravery to leave a steady job to pursue that next-level sommelier qualification. On the floor, Stefanie loves when guests give her some direction (“here's my budget, here's what we like!”), but she's also ready to whisk you away with a surprise pairing if you're up for the adventure. Whether people want to talk organic, biodynamic, orange wine, or good old Bordeaux, the most important ingredient is always to create a special, personal moment—that's what makes people come back (and maybe brag to their friends later). So, fancy a glass of Champagne, Pinot Noir, or perhaps a pink Pinot Grigio with a story? Stefanie's here to make sure you leave with a smile—and maybe a new favorite wine you've never heard of before. If you've got more specific questions about Stefanie's approach, the trends she's seeing, or German wine culture, just ask! #winepodcast #sommeliers #WineTalks #StefanieHehn #PaulKalemkiarian #Germanwine, #hospitality #MichelinStar #FontenayHotel #Riesling #PinotNoir #winepairing #winelover #wineeducation #wineindustry #finewine #winelist #organicwine #champagne #wineexperience #mastersommelier

They explore Treviso's charm, cuisine, and proximity to other Italian destinations. Key Points: Treviso: An Unheralded Italian Gem: Treviso is near Venice, offering similar canals and architecture but with fewer tourists. Despite attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors, it remains less crowded than Venice. Treviso's blend of canals, medieval palaces and colorful facades create a visually appealing experience. Travel Tip: Photograph Everything: Document rental car damage with photos of the car, the other driver's information, and interactions with rental agencies. This precaution can help resolve potential disputes with rental car companies. Historical and Cultural Highlights: Porta San Tommaso: An ornate gate featuring the Venetian lion, showcasing the city's history. Fontana Delle Tette: The Fountain of Breasts, a sculpture that once spouted wine during the election of a new mayor, symbolizing the city's rich past. Cuisine and Wine of Treviso: Prosecco: The popular wine of the Veneto region, with vine-covered hills recognized as UNESCO World Heritage sites. Incrocio Manzoni: A local white wine similar to Riesling, enhancing the region's diverse wine offerings. Tiramisu: Treviso is the birthplace of tiramisu, first introduced on a menu in 1972 at the restaurant Le Becchiere. Episode Highlights: Memorable aperitivo experiences include both elegant settings under arcades and laid-back atmospheres. Treviso is a great base for visiting vineyards, Padova, Vicenza, Trieste, and the Dolomites. Staying in Treviso offers a less crowded and more authentic experience compared to Venice, especially in the off season.
