It's the HOLIDAYS.   Thanksgiving wines begin the holiday celebrations  Please Check out non alcoholic choices also .  To begin any celebration, bubbles are always appropriate. New York Hard Ciders and Thanksgiving wines NY is the only choice, in my opinion, and the best producers of Hard ciders.  Angry Orchard is the most popular NY hard cider and the most widely distributed.  Ryan Burk is the Cider Master.  He treats cider making as though he was making a fine wine, in that he discusses, native, wild yeasts, terroir and fermentation. They use predominantly New York State apples, Baldwin, Rome and Rhode Island green apples that are grown in New York.  Once they are picked in September, October, they sort by hand,  on a conveyer belt.  They toss out the bad apples and then run the apples through a shower. Next the apples get a good soaking to remove dirt, stones and stems.  Lastly a final wash before they go to the “ mashing process.”  This produces the juice sans pumice.  Ryan talks about native and wild yeasts which occur naturally on the apple skins and leaves. This produces specific terroir ( my kind of language).  The fermentation takes place in used barrels which are neutral, meaning no oak flavor, is imparted to the cider blend. The ciders are usually filtered. Ryan mentions that they experiment with wine yeasts also.  Great video on the entire process.  https://youtu.be/iIriESwXy2c The top ciders in my opinion are: https://www.angryorchard.com/, http://www.aaronburrcider.com/, http://www.badseedhardcider.com/ Our American fare is quite heavy.  Therefore you want wines that will cut through the fatThanksgiving wines are the hot topic of course.  Many people choose Pinot Noir or another red.  These are actually not good choices because our American holiday fare is very rich.  We actually want wines that cut the fat and richness of our Thanksgiving feast. Therefore a full bodied white wine such as Chardonnay,  only slightly oaked, preferably unoaked  is better. Sauvignon Blanc is also a perfect choice. If you want to choose domestic wines, I suggest: ZD WINES Napa: Chardonnay is stunning.  They produce a very crisp Sauvignon Blanc. They make a very substantial Pinot Noir and they are famous for their Cabernet. www.ZDWines.com. Robert SINSKEY also Napa is famous for his Pinot Noir. However, choose the Pinot Blanc and the Abraxas ( white varietals blend) and definitely the Vin Gris of Pinot Noir, which is  a Rose'.   Yes Rose's are really the exciting wines for Thanksgiving.  www.Robert SINSKEY.com all organic vines.  I prefer the European style wines however, for Thanksgiving. Therefore I would choose an AOC Chablis, a chenin Blanc from Loire, a Sancerre also.  You might venture into Cru Beaujolais for the reds.  Serve these gamay varietal wines slightly chilled.  Contact vahail1956@gmail.com for prices and where to purchase. www.chezvalerie.us @valeriehail

 Jame Blackmon, grew up in Alabama and attended Auburn University to study hospitality management.  Originally, he believed he would have a career in hotel management but decided to follow his passion for wine and move to California.  According to Jame, Robert Sinskey Vineyards in Napa was an easy choice for him when selecting an employer because of its family atmosphere and small winery feeling.  Jame says he was also inspired by the story of the Sinskey family and how taking care of their land is the top priority.  Jame is now a wine informant at Robert Sinskey Vineyards where he enjoys sharing his extensive wine knowledge (WSET 3) and interacting with people.  In this interview, Jame and I talk about the journey to becoming a sommelier, what it's like working for the late Bob Sinskey's son, Rob Sinskey, and we talk about a white wine blend called Abraxas that is totally different than anything currently being done in Napa.  You can purchase some wines from Robert Sinskey Vineyards or schedule a tasting with Jame at www.robertsinskey.com

Wind your way through the world’s markets, both physical and financial, to find out how they’re changing. This week on Meat + Three, we explore global food trade. First, we follow the journey of deliciously sweet dates – from markets in the Middle East to Missouri. Then, Cathy Erway introduces us to Lizzie Collingham’s book, Taste of Empire, which tells the story of the British Empire's lasting influence on on world through 20 significant dishes. Finally, we try to understand how climate change is shifting global food markets by examining the "canary in the coal mine" of agriculture: vineyards. This program is supported in part by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council. Meat + Three is powered by Simplecast.

Cathy Corison is the owner of Corison Winery in St. Helena, California. An alum of Freemark Abbey, Robert Sinskey, and Chappellet, she's made wine under her eponymous label since 1987. Critic Eric Asimov of the NYT has written, “Corison is one of the greatest producers of Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa Valley today,” and she's been named a “Winemaker of the Year” by San Francisco Chronicle. She talks to us about what it was like being one of the first female winemakers in Napa in the late 1970s, and her impressions of how the industry has evolved in the last 40 years.

As fires continue to burn through wide swaths of wine country, Maddie heads to Napa to catch up with the cellar crew from Robert Sinskey winery and hear about their week from hell. Then Tom interviews renowned chef Dan Barber about how the biggest wasters in food aren't who you think.

This special episode of Heritage Radio Network On Tour brings you the latest news on the California Wildfires that continue to burn throughout parts of Napa, Sonoma, Calistoga and Santa Rosa. We have updates from winemaker Robert Sinskey, Brian Kenny of Hearst Ranch, and more. “We need to focus on climate change and educate people to vote the environment. It needs to be the number one issue for all eligible voting citizens. The world has bigger problems than just the wine industry and these fires. We need intelligent, savvy politicians who will make climate change their top priority and we need to put others on notice that the world has moved beyond fossil fuel and chemical farming. I have said for years that vineyards are the canary in the coal mine. What we are experiencing now is what’s in store for the rest of world if we don’t move on from this carbon based economy.” – Robert Sinskey Next, we take a look at some of the conditions that led to these fires. The New York Times published an article addressing the factors that made this wildfire season so deadly. Years of drought were followed by record amounts of rainfall, which spurred new plant growth, and then followed by months of extreme heat that withered the new growth and turned it into more tinder. Autumn winds from the northeast, known as diablo winds, began blowing through the region over the weekend at speeds of 70 miles an hour or more. It’s unknown what sparked the fires at this time, but state officials are looking into the possibility that downed power lines are one of the causes.
