It appears on some wine labels, winemakers speak lovingly about them, and there are organizations focused on them. “Old Vines” is a loosely defined term that is often associated with quality in the wine industry. Seghesio, a historic Californian winery, has a strong focus on old vines with its focus on Zinfandel and Italian varietals. Andy Robinson, Seghesio's winemaker, lays out the economics of growing and selling old vine wines. Detailed Show Notes: Andy's background: grew up in the Finger Lakes (NY), studied Chemistry, worked at Charles KrugSeghesio overviewFounded 1895 by Piedmont immigrant Eduardo SeghesioAlexander Valley & Russian River (Sonoma)~120k cases / year; 160 acres plantedMostly Zinfandel (oldest 1895 at Home Ranch) and Italian varieties (Sangiovese, oldest from 1910)Defines old vines as 50+ years vs Old Vine Conference defines as 35+ years, conventional vineyards normally have 20-25 year lifespanMust be an excellent vine (both in yield and quality) to become an old vineBenefits of old vinesOften head trained, umbrella shape gives natural shading, don't need trellis supports, requires less maintenance late in the season; overall about the same cost as trellised (head trained harder to mechanize)More flavor compounds (a Spanish company researched this)More textural and complex flavorsCosts of old vinesExpect lower yields (sets less fruit)Big cuts from pruning can have bigger impact on vinesNeed to have a focus for old vines to be successful, which is why there are many single vineyard old vines; consistent ownership important for thisPeople are often willing to pay more for old vine wines, wine needs to be goodFor deciding when to replant old vines: wines not fantastic anymore, yields drop

In this episode of the Minnesota Rackstars Hunting Podcast, we dive into one of the most overlooked keys to successful deer hunting—mock scrapes. But instead of spending money on artificial scrape products, plastic licking branches, and gimmicks marketed to hunters every year, we're talking about what has consistently worked based on years of real-world trail camera intel: natural vines.I share why I created Double DropVine and how using a real, natural vine can help create more realistic mock scrapes that deer are naturally attracted to. After reviewing countless trail camera photos and videos, I've noticed a consistent pattern—bucks and does readily interact with natural vines, often choosing them over man-made alternatives.We discuss why natural materials may be more effective, how they can save hunters money compared to constantly buying new scrape products, and why keeping things simple often produces the best results in the woods. If you've ever wondered whether all the "latest and greatest" scrape gadgets are worth the investment, this episode may challenge what you think you know about scrape hunting.Whether you're managing a hunting property, creating mock scrapes for inventory purposes, or trying to tag a mature buck this fall, this conversation is packed with practical observations and trail camera evidence that could help improve your strategy.Tune in as we separate hunting marketing from hunting reality and discuss why sometimes the most effective tools are the ones nature already provides.Contact Minnesota Rackstars through our social media platforms for more information!!

“We're about as high as you can get in the Sierra Foothills and still grow grapes.” — Derek DelfinoEl Dorado County in the Sierra Foothills wine country is one of California's best kept secrets, but it shouldn't be. When gold was discovered here in the mid 1800s, the Italians who came to the region to strike it rich brought with them their grapevines and winemaking traditions. The folks with Edio Vineyards at Delfino Farms in the Camino district came from this heritage. In homage to patriarch Edio Delfino - who created the family's fruit orchards, the third generation planted vineyards at what many might think is an impossible elevation - up to 3,000 feet - where wintry snows are not uncommon.Today, you'll meet brothers Derek and Peter Delfino, who bring their wine growing and winemaking talents as third generation vintners to the family's endeavor, and along with other family members, created what today is one of the most exciting wineries in El Dorado County. Edio is named for their grandfather, Edio Delfino, a lifelong farmer and visionary who helped establish Apple Hill as a premiere apple growing region in the Sierra Foothills. With Derek managing the vineyards, Peter making Edio wines, together they are balancing family tradition with innovation and a through line of love for the land and a deep respect for where they come from. The Marys were fortunate enough to visit Edio in 2023 and we enjoyed the beautiful views from the new tasting room. We sipped the fabulous wines that are full of distinct characteristics of the region - the zesty acidity, the aromatic notes and minerality really blew us away. So we're so happy to have Derek and Peter with us to share their story.

Harry McNaughton first appeared on Kiwi TV screens as an 18-year-old, playing receptionist Gerald Tippet on Shorty St. Since then, he's built up a presence on the other side of the camera, having worked on other New Zealand TV shows like The Pact, Madam, Under the Vines, and The Sounds. His new show is set to arrive on Three soon - it's called Head Girl and McNaughton is the co-creator and writer. "If I'm working as a showrunner, particularly if I'm a writer-creator who's on set and who's filling more of a producer role, then the benefit of that is that you can have people at any stage go - this doesn't feel like it's working, or you can see that it's not working...being able to change that is hugely helpful."

Kudzu is a woody, hairy vine with distinct three-pronged leaves. During the blooming season in late summer, the plant produces grape-smelling purple flowers. And, always, it has a way of crowding out other plants."Kudzu is like a glamorous villain ... ‘the vine that ate the South,' " says Ben Nanny, the conservation director at Ijams Nature Center.This ubiquitous vine prompted this question:How did that annoying "kudzu" first get introduced to the area?The answer ties back to the late 1800s, reports Jacqui Sieber with WUOT in Knoxville.

The Wonderful World of Wine (WWW) Episode 315 Hosts Kim Simone and Mark Lenzi exploring all things wine with you! Sustainability with Sandra Taylor In this episode of The Wonderful World of Wine (WWW), hosts Kim and Mark dive deep into the world of sustainable viticulture with special guest Sandra Taylor. As the author of Vines and Values: A Consumer's Guide to Sustainable Wine, Sandra brings a unique perspective to the table, sharing her fascinating professional journey from law school to earning a wine MBA. The conversation breaks down the complexities of what "sustainable wine" actually means, why it is becoming a critical focus for the industry, and—most importantly—how you can identify these practices on a bottle label. Sandra explores the nuances of sustainability in both the vineyard and the cellar, shedding light on the reality of wine additives and the ongoing debate between "Big Wine" and artisanal productions. Key topics covered in this episode: The Weight of Quality: Does a heavy glass bottle actually mean the wine inside is better? Organic vs. Certified: Understanding the distinction between "wine made with organic grapes" and "certified organic wine." Beyond the Soil: A look into biodynamics and vegan wine. The Future of Buying: Sandra introduces her upcoming "Wine-Watch" 50-point sustainable rating system, a potential game-changer for conscious consumers.

Vines seem harmless but if left alone can slowly choke the life out of a tree. In the same way, unchecked habits, strongholds, and sin can suffocate our spiritual growth. See how Yah's pruning can remove the vines and allow us to flourish.

There are obstacles that can prevent abiding in Jesus.PAIN can take various forms, including the consequences of sin, other people's sin, brokenness of the world, sickness, death, loss of a job, and more, which can distort one's understanding of God and lead to distrust.OVERSTUFFING one's life, leaving no space for Jesus or his words to abide, highlights the importance of creating space for Jesus and prioritizing relationships and intimacy with him.JESUS desires intimacy with each person, regardless of age or story, and calls them to abide in him and for him to abide in them^^^^^^^In Christ. In Community. In Lebanon.⁠⁠https://www.cornerstonelebanon.com/⁠⁠YouTube LivestreamThe Scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments (66 books) are the unique, divinely inspired, authoritative word of God that came through human agents under God's providence. Its primary purpose is to make us wise for salvation through faith in Jesus Christ (2 Timothy 3:15), who is the ultimate revelation of Eternal Life that the Scriptures testify about (John 5:39; Luke 24:25-27).

IWP Ep106 Book Report: Idwal Jones - "Vines in the Sun" and "The Vineyard". And Still The Vine, Her Ancient Ruby Yields. Today we're discussing the author Idwal Jones, one of my favorite wine writers and one of the more unique ones that California has produced. But, he isn't really a wine writer, his only wine related books are 1 non fiction-ish book and 1 novel on wine but they are both best in class.  His Novel, The Vineyard is remarkable for how much it puts you into the setting of a Napa Valley winery pre-prohibition.  While Vines in the Sun takes you on a tour through the vineyards and wineries of early California winemaking, making stops up and down the state. A cross between a 19th century travelog and Anthony Bourdain or Hunter S Thompson. Both were written in the mid 1900's and still read vividly today.  Link to purchase both titles: https://www.abebooks.com/book-search/title/vineyard/author/idwal-jones/ https://www.abebooks.com/book-search/title/vines-sun/author/idwal-jones/used/Follow the podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/indiewinepodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or email indiewinepodcast@gmail.com with questions, comments or feedback.
