They dig into her cookbook Spanglish, a love letter to bicultural Puerto Rican cooking, why Puerto Rican food is fried the way it is, and the Spanglish mashups she's created, from bacalaito onion rings to morcilla sloppy joes.

With the Vuelta a España pausing for its second rest day before the final week resumes on Tuesday, Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss get together to recap the 2026 men's Tour of Britain.Five days of racing took the peloton from Lincoln, famous for hosting one of the greatest single-day races on the British calendar, to the Borders of Scotland. We also discuss two riders at opposite ends of their career – Ben Swift, who completed the Tour of Britain in his 18th and final season as a professional rider, and Ben Wiggins, who is aiming for a pro contract and raced very aggressively on the final day to secure a place in the overall top ten for the young Great Britain team. Graham talks to Wiggins, son of the 2013 Tour of Britain champion, Bradley, about his week on the road and aim for the upcoming World Championships, where he will ride the under-23 time trial.

Hand aufs Herz: Die meisten von uns haben keinen Gewölbekeller und keinen teuren Klimaschrank. Und trotzdem wollen wir, dass unser Wein nicht leidet. Lou erklärt heute, was Wein wirklich braucht – und verrät fünf ganz praktische Hacks, wie ihr eure Flaschen auch in einer normalen Wohnung richtig unterbringt. Ganz ohne Spezial-Equipment. Spoiler: Unterm Bett ist keine schlechte Idee. Wein der Woche Finca de la Vega Reserva – La Mancha DO, Spanien | Rheinberg Kellerei Ein spanischer Reserva aus dem sonnenverwöhnten La Mancha – Merlot und Tempranillo, 16 Monate in amerikanischen Eichenfässern gereift und danach weitere zwei Jahre auf der Flasche. Das Ergebnis: tiefrote Farbe, komplexes Aroma, volles Mundgefühl. Vanille und ein Hauch Holz in der Nase, dazu dunkle Früchte, reife Kirsche und eine runde, weiche Tanninstruktur. Kräftig, aber ausbalanciert – ideal zu dunklem Fleisch, Wildgerichten und kräftigem Käse. Erhältlich bei EDEKA und edeka24.de Weinlexikon: L wie Lichtschaden / Light Strike Lichtschaden – auf Englisch „light strike"" – entsteht, wenn Wein zu lange Licht ausgesetzt ist, vor allem UV-Strahlung aus direktem Sonnenlicht. Das Licht zerstört bestimmte Verbindungen im Wein und lässt Fehlaromen entstehen, die oft nach nasser Pappe, Kohl oder feuchter Wolle riechen. Besonders empfindlich sind helle Weißweine, Rosés und Schaumweine in hellen Glasflaschen. Genau deshalb werden Weine traditionell in dunkelgrüne oder braune Flaschen abgefüllt – das getönte Glas wirkt wie eine Sonnenbrille. Die gute Nachricht: normales Zimmerlicht macht dem Wein kaum etwas aus, bleicht höchstens das Etikett aus. Gefährlich ist vor allem direktes Sonnenlicht – also Flaschen niemals auf die sonnige Fensterbank stellen.

Think Oregon is all about Pinot Noir? Think again. In this episode I'm joined by Samantha Cole-Johnson, Senior US Editor at JancisRobinson.com and the Master of Wine student who achieved the highest mark in the world in Stage One of the notoriously challenging MW programme, to uncover the side of Oregon that most people never discover. From cross-border wine regions that ignore state lines to savoury Syrah grown on basalt cobblestones, richer styles of Pinot Gris and a brand-new sparkling wine movement, this episode will completely change the way you think about Oregon. Along the way, we also discuss what the future of wine might look like - and why the biggest challenge facing the wine industry may have nothing to do with wine itself. You'll discover why the Rocks District produces some of America's most distinctive Syrah, why Oregon's Pinot Gris deserves far more attention, how Method Oregon is putting the state's sparkling wines on the map, and the producers and wine regions that should be firmly on your travel wishlist. So, if you're ready to look beyond Pinot Noir, pour yourself a glass, sit back, and enjoy this episode. Shownotes 03:05 – Learning how to communicate wine — how Samantha's experience in cellars, formal study and wine journalism shaped the way she tastes, writes and speaks about wine today. 05:54 – Do state lines matter in wine? — why geographical boundaries rarely determine wine style, but can have important legal and commercial consequences for producers. 06:53 – Understanding the Columbia Gorge — how rainfall and temperature change dramatically from west to east across this cross-border Oregon and Washington AVA. 08:36 – Visiting the Columbia Gorge — why Portland makes an ideal starting point for exploring its wineries, cycling trails, breweries and famous windsurfing. 09:26 – Inside the Rocks District — what makes this tiny Oregon AVA's basalt cobblestones and distinctive soils unlike almost anywhere else in the United States. 10:40 – The unmistakable Rocks District flavour — how low acidity, heat and saline soils can create Syrah with savoury, ferrous, rosemary and cured-meat characters. 11:22 – Why Grenache is thriving — the grape varieties performing particularly well in the Rocks District's hot, dry and intensely sunny conditions. 13:41 – The problem with Rocks District labelling — why many wines grown inside the AVA must legally be labelled as Walla Walla when they are made across the border in Washington. For a deeper dive into Washington State wine, listen to Episode 271 with Chris Stone and Avril Mooney from the Washington State Wine Commission. 15:37 – Cayuse Vineyards and Christophe Baron — why one of the Rocks District's most celebrated producers chooses not to place the AVA name on his labels. 17:49 – Christophe Baron and Cayuse — why one of the Rocks District's pioneering winemakers chooses not to feature the AVA name on his labels. 18:44 – How to identify wines from the Rocks — why a Walla Walla label does not guarantee Rocks District fruit and what wine lovers should investigate before buying. Producer to look out for who trained with Christophe Baron - Matt Reynvaan of Reynvaan Family Vineyards 20:40 – Oregon beyond the Willamette Valley — exploring the smaller wine regions and cross-border AVAs that exist beyond the state's best-known centre of production. 21:25 – Why small producers rarely reach export markets — how direct-to-consumer sales in cities such as Seattle and Boise can leave little incentive for wineries to export. 23:23 – Oregon's artisanal wine culture — how the state developed around small-scale wineries, hands-on farming and producers working with limited resources. 25:32 – Is Oregon wine becoming more commercial? — how new investment, vineyard management companies and larger businesses are changing the region's traditional identity. 27:23 – Why American wine can be expensive — the impact of land prices, debt, staffing, healthcare, investors and corporate structures on the final cost of a bottle. 30:29 – Looking beyond the romance of winemaking — the economic reality behind owning vineyards, employing staff and running a sustainable family wine business. 31:18 – The authentic small-winery experience — why visiting working producers may involve muddy cellars, vineyard trucks and less glamour, but far greater access to the people behind the wine. 34:53 – Small wineries versus large production — why Oregon still has far more small producers, even as a growing proportion of its wine is made by larger companies. 35:49 – Oregon beyond Pinot Noir — discovering Tempranillo, Bordeaux varieties, Gamay, Chardonnay and the diversity emerging across the state. 38:46 – Pinot Gris or Pinot Grigio? — why Oregon producers use both names and how the label can indicate whether a wine is inspired by Alsace or northern Italy. 39:41 – The classic Oregon Pinot Gris style — fresh, mineral and fruit-driven wines from producers such as King Estate and Sokol Blosser. 40:09 – A richer side of Oregon Pinot Gris — Ridgecrest, The Eyrie and Antiquum Farm demonstrate how old vines, skin contact and oak can create more textured, age-worthy wines. 42:25 – Comparing Alsace and northern Italy — the differences between richer, more powerful Alsace Pinot Gris and the fresher, leaner styles commonly associated with Italian Pinot Grigio. 43:46 – What matters most for Oregon Pinot Gris — why old vines, warmer vineyard sites and individual producers may be more important than any particular AVA. 44:38 – Introducing Method Oregon — the new initiative establishing rules for traditional-method sparkling wine made entirely from sustainably grown Oregon fruit. 46:08 – How Oregon sparkling wine is made — the specialist services helping still-wine producers manage secondary fermentation, riddling and disgorgement. 47:55 – Oregon's leading sparkling wine producers — the history of Argyle and Soter, and the new vineyards being planted specifically for traditional-method sparkling wine. 49:44 – Developments shaping the future of wine — lower-alcohol fermentation, de-alcoholised wine, growing demand for white and sparkling styles and greater interest in environmental certification. 51:00 – Is declining socialisation hurting wine? — Samantha's theory that remote working, screen time and fewer shared meals may be more important than generational drinking trends. 52:23 – Wine as a social experience — why encouraging people to gather, connect and spend longer around the table could be essential to the future of the wine industry. 54:04 – Barbecue wine recommendations — Samantha recommends Bedrock Wine Co. for outstanding Zinfandel, alongside lighter chillable reds for relaxed outdoor gatherings. 55:23 – Pairing wine with hand-holding — why Samantha chooses a lower-alcohol Txakoli rosé for an experience that has nothing to do with food.

260730PC Werbung für den Fußball – rote Karte für die FIFAMensch Mahler am 20.7.2026Jetzt ist sie vorbei – die XXL-WM in Nord- und Mittelamerika. Den Schluss- und Höhepunkt setzte nicht das lahme Finale zwischen Spanien und Argentinien. Das beste Spiel von 104 Begegnungen war der Kampf um Bronze. Das 6:4 Englands über Frankreich war der Leckerbissen schlechthin. Jetzt ist sie vorbei – die Zeit der langen Nächte und der Skandale. Spanien – neben Frankreich lange das Maß aller Dinge in Europa – brauchte lange, um gegen eindeutig unterlegene Argentinier in der Verlängerung das 1:0 zu machen. So blieb uns ein Elfmeterschießen erspart und wir konnten gegen Mitternacht deutscher Zeit ins Bett gehen, um uns für die erste Post-WM Woche fit zu schlafen. Einen Grund, sich mit Tempranillo zu betrinken gab es nicht. Der aufgeblähte Kader von 48 Mannschaften war ein Gewinn. Man sah tolle Spiele der angeblich kleinen Fußballnationen. Überraschungen aus Afrika, Asien und Südamerika. Dieses neue Reglement hat sich auf Anhieb in die Herzen der Fans gespielt. Trotz horrender Preise waren die Stadien nicht halb leer, wie im Vorfeld befürchtet. Und die Stimmung vor Ort blieb auch nach dem Ausscheiden der gastgebenden Nationen Canada, Mexiko und USA hoch. Schade bleibt natürlich, dass der normale Fußballfan auf dem Globus keine Chance hatte, live dabei zu sein. Die WM 2026 konnte sich nur leisten, wer über ein prall gefülltes Bankkonto verfügte. Eine WM der Reichen und Superreichen. Auch zuhause – ohne Bezahlfernsehen konnte man nur wenige Spiele auf der Couch verfolgen. Womit wir bei den Schattenseiten dieses Fußballfestes wären. Es war eine WM des Kommerz-Rausches. 15 Milliarden Dollar verdiente die FIFA in diesen drei Wochen. 5,8 Milliarden waren es vor vier Jahren in Katar. Trinkpausen dienten nicht etwa der Gesundheit der Spieler, sondern lediglich der Gesundheit der Konzerne, die in diesen Minuten ihre Werbe-Maschinen anschmissen. Trauriger Höhepunkt: Die peinliche Halbzeit-Show in New Jersey, die auf knapp 30 Minuten ausgedehnt wurde, komplett schwache Auftritte von Madonna, Justin Biber und Rihanna boten und die der Gesundheit der Spieler nach Ansicht aller Sportmediziner abträglich war. Der Kamera-Schwenk in die VIP-Lounge in dem zu sehen war, wie ein lachender Infantino einem lachenden Trump eine Weltpokal-Nachbildung in den Schoss legte, war das sprechende Bild dieser WM. Sie war gekauft worden von zwei größenwahnsinnigen Kaspern, die von Fußball keine Ahnung haben. Umso mehr dafür von Deals, die so weit gingen, dass Trump Infantino nötigte, eine rote Karte gegen die USA zurückzunehmen. Ein unverzeihlicher Regelverstoß, den Infantino hoffentlich nicht überleben wird. Bleibt die deutsche Bilanz. Nach dem Turnier ist die einstige Großmacht mit vier Sternen auf der Brust auf Rang 12 der Weltrangliste abgestürzt. Vier Sterne hat nur noch Italien, das beim Weltturnier zum dritten Mal in Folge gar nicht dabei war. Und Brasilien, mit 5 Sternen Spitzenreiter, scheiterte ebenso kläglich wie unsere Jungs. Fakt ist: Es ist weder Hansi Flick noch Julian Nagelsmann gelungen, aus sehr guten Einzelspielern eine Mannschaft zu formen. Dass jetzt Jürgen Klopp, ein Vertreter des Geldes und nicht des Fußballs, die Sache bis zur EM 2028 in England, Schottland, Wales, Irland und Nordirland richten soll, kann mit Fug und Recht angezweifelt werden. In fünf Ländern, die aus der europäischen Union ausgetreten sind, findet immerhin ein Tournier der kurzen Wege statt. Man bleibt auf der Insel außerhalb des europäischen Festlandes. Mit einem doppelten Titelverteidiger Spanien, die als Europa- und Weltmeister anreisen. Mit einem Blendax-Lächler Klopp, der als Werbeikone und Umsatzmillionär im zweifachen Millionenbereich sehr viel mehr Schlagzeilen macht wie als Fußballehrer. Die Kommerzshow geht also weiter. Red Bull verleiht Flügel, nicht der Bundesadler. Armes Deutschland, arme Fußballwelt. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Vinene i afsnittet er skænket af Jysk Vin https://www.jyskvin.dk/ Smagekasse med de tre vine fra afsnittet https://www.jyskvin.dk/vin-for-begyndere-lagringens-kunst-0-6956093 Se flere smagekasser fra podcasten og Jysk Vin her https://www.jyskvin.dk/podcast ………….. I dette afsnit skal vi i dybden med forskellige lagringsmetoder på rødvin og selvfølgelig finde ud af, hvad det gør ved strukturen, smagen og lugten i vinen. Emnet tager os til Manchuela i Spanien og amphora-lagring, Barbaresco i Italien og lagring på slavonsk eg og Rioja i Spanien og lagring på fransk og amerikansk eg. Det bliver et dyk tilbage i den dybe fortid for at give en grundlæggende forståelse for, hvorfor vin i det hele taget er begyndt at blive opbevaret. Og så bliver det også nørdet, når vi snakker permeabilitet, ekstraktion, polymerisering, stentøj, lertøj, betonæg, træsorter og MEGET mere!

The wine: Elephant Hill Tempranillo Rosé 2025, Hawke's Bay, $29.00 A distinctive and enticing bouquet, a rosé made from Tempranillo is a rare find in NZ. Scents and flavours of peaches and red apple, a leesy and a clay earth complexity. A delicious wine with a silky-cream mouthfeel, superfine fruit tannins and medium+ acid line and flavours that reflect the bouquet. A very light positive reductive quality adds to the complexity. Lengthy and dry on the finish, an excellent example. The Food: Prawn dumplings steamed then quickly pan-seared with sesame oil. Finished with an oyster and soy sauce. Dress the dish up with some chives and ginger. Rosé wines respond to traditional Asian fare by contrasting the fresh flavours and intense spikes from the sauces especially the sweet and salty soy. Rosé when young should have a crispness and brightness with a racy acidity and generous mid-palate fruit sweetness. The season: The 2025 season in Hawke's Bay was excellent overall. A warm, dry spring with very good flowering and an early, mostly uninterrupted, start to the growing season. The summer was a little cooler but that did not stop flavour development and ripeness in the fruit. The flavour development and overall ripeness timeline contributed lead to one of the earliest for the region. So far, the wines I have encountered show a vibrancy and freshness, excellent balance and length. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This interview is with Andrew Wenzl of Abacela Winery. In this interview, Andrew talks about his journey from biology and chemistry for veterinary school to applying those principles to winemaking.Andrew shares about his family's history in present-day Austria growing lesser known varietals, making wine, and running bed and breakfast-type inns. With that history of winemaking and hospitality, it made sense for Andrew to take his scientific education and start working at King Estate performing “bucket chemistry.”Andrew talks about enjoying cellar work first at King Estate and then at Silvan Ridge Hinman Vineyard before applying to work at Abacela Winery. He joined the team there in 2002, and he has been there ever since. When he first started working there, he acted as assistant winemaker, and in 2008 he was promoted to head winemaker. Though he grew up in the Willamette Valley and enjoyed the wines made there, he now loves working with varietals like Grenache and Tempranillo.Later in the interview, Andrew discusses the growth of Abacela during his time there, including a new and expanded tasting room, new programs like port and sparkling, and using 25 years' worth vineyard & cellar data to continue improving the wines. He also talks about how becoming a dad helped him to be more empathetic and supportive during the winemaking process.This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt at Abacela Winery in Roseburg on March 19, 2026.Thank you to the Oregon Wine Board for generously supporting this interview as part of our Southern Oregon 2026 tour!

What happens when you hand a sommelier a mystery glass and ask them to identify a world-class red wine — completely blind?In this episode of Got Somme, we put the palate to the ultimate test with a stunning Rioja Gran Reserva 2016 that left us speechless (and one of us with actual goosebumps).We got ours here: https://www.platinumfinewine.com.au/product/bodegas-lan-gran-reserva/ From deep ruby colour to lingering pencil-shaving tannins, this wine delivered layer after layer of complexity — black currant, black plum, truffle, leather, clove, nutmeg, star anise, and what our co-host could only describe as fresh pasta flour.

I dagens afsnit kaster vi os ud i et eksperiment, som potentielt kan kaste masser af diskussion af sig. Det må det også godt, for det er en svær øvelse. Vi laver en rødvinsskala, hvor vi gennemgår udvalgte druesorter og rangerer dem efter struktur, frugt, syre, tannin, alkohol og tyngde på en skala fra de letteste druesorter til de druesorter, der giver vine med mest tyngde. Vores placering af druerne er lavet ud fra hvad "den styrende vinstil anno 2026" er på druen. Der er desuden en masse forbehold ift. druesorten. Herunder produktionsmetode, høsttidspunkt, vækstområde m.m. Vi tager udgangspunkt i Wine Follys liste, men laver vores egen rangering.

It's been 13 years since I've done a grape miniseries on Tempranillo, so it was high time! This grape has come a long way in a decade +, proving that it has more nuance, terroir driven finesse, and versatility than it gets credit for. Tempranillo is now the third most widely planted wine grape in the world, at 231,000 ha/570,000 acres. It is not widely grown outside of Spain but there are growers in 17 countries making a go of it. That said, 88% of Tempranillo's vineyard area is in Spain and most of it is in the northern central parts, with Rioja and Ribera del Duero as the shining stars. Photo: Getty Images via Canva In this show, I go over the DNA and history of the grape and I discuss the many, many names it has. I talk about how it reacts to terroir and its behavior in the vineyard, and why it is so uniquely suited to the special areas in Spain where it thrives. I talk about winemaking and its effect on the grape and then I dive into the aging criteria of Spain (Generico, Crianza, Reserva, Gran Reserva) before going over the specific regions in Spain, Portugal, and the New World in which this grape does amazing things. This is one of the most important grapes in the world, and the mini-series is packed with info! Enjoy and go try some different wines, you will be surprised at how different they are based on all the factors I mention in the show. You can test yourself to see if you can figure out if it's the land or the hand of man that has an effect! Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.
