Mantém o programa “O Amor É”, com o psiquiatra Júlio Machado Vaz, a crónica “O Coração ainda bate” e o podcast “Cultas e Vinho Verde”.

Portugal – das ist ein kleines Land mit einer umso größeren Weintradition! Und um die zu erkunden, bekommen Lou und Jonas in dieser Folge Unterstützung von Carine Patricio. Die gebürtige Portugieserin ist in Frankreich aufgewachsen, hat in mehreren Gourmet Restaurants in Hamburg gearbeitet und wurde 2020 als beste Sommelière Portugals ausgezeichnet. Mit Lou spricht sie über die vielen tollen Rebsorten des Landes, die Auswirkungen, die das vielfältige Klima auf den Weinbau hat und darüber, welche Anbauregionen Du unbedingt auf dem Schirm haben solltest – beispielsweise das sonnenverwöhnte Alentejo oder auch Vinho Verde mit seinen frischen, leichten Weißweinen. Zum Abschluss gibt's wie immer noch ein spontanes Food and Wine Pairing mit Carines liebsten portugiesischen Gerichten. Wein der Woche: Astrada Tawny Port https://bit.ly/3Tz5jVL Nicht nur zum Kochen, sondern auch wunderbar zum Käse und Dessert funktioniert dieser im Fass gereifte Portwein. Als einer von Lous Liebsten hat der Tawny einen charakteristischen Duft nach Zwetschge, Kakao, getrockneten Kirschen und Zimt. Saftig im Geschmack mit angenehmer fruchtiger Restsüße. Unbedingt leicht gekühlt servieren – 10 bis 14 Grad sind hier optimal!

With just a few weeks of summer left, we have the perfect wine to ensure that you do not squander those last few precious days. Afterall, there are some wines that just scream summer, and Vinho Verde is at the top of the list. Hailing from Portugal, Vinho Verde is a light, crisp, easy drinking, crowd pleasing little spritzer.

And Portuguese wines are worthy of their own set of episodes because, despite being a smallish country in terms of population, Portugal way out-punches its weight class in terms of wine production.

Why You Should Be Drinking Portuguese Wines Now On the podcast today, the Symington family has a history in Portugal as rich as their Ports. We are excited to have DOC Douro Category Manager Mariana Brito and fifth generation family member Harry Symington joining us on the pod from Portugal to share Symington's story. Port is a wine we think of as the perfect end to a great meal, a relaxing wine to sip and toast on an evening shared with family and friends. Port invites us to slow down, sip, and savor. The Symington family has lived by that mantra for generations. They are one of the best known names in Port, admired worldwide for their dedication to the wine and sustainable practices. Symington Family Estates owns the Port Houses of Dow's, Graham's, Warre's, Cockburn's and Quinta do Vesuvio, and dry wine producers in Portugal's Douro Valley, Vinho Verde and Alentejo wine regions. The family is carefully upholding the best of Port's long history while also stewarding the wine into the future, producing dry white, rosé and red wines. While they trace their roots in the Port trade back to 1652, today the fifth generation of Symingtons is leading the way in the family business. You might think of Port as your father's or grandfather's drink. But Port is being rediscovered thanks in part to travelers choosing to go to Portugal and the historic Douro Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the world's oldest demarcated wine region as their top destination.

It may be hard to pronounce and spell, but is it ever easy to drink! In this episode, we introduce you to a fun, quaffable, and not so serious wine called Txakoli which hails from the Basque region of Spain. Sometimes also called Txakolina, this slightly fizzy white wine is a perfect summer sipper. While tasting it, we had visions of sitting by the pool or at a cookout with friends on a warm summer afternoon. Heavenly! If you are a fan of Vinho Verde, this wine is definitely another to add to your list. A great wine for cheese plates, charcuterie boards, seafood, and spicy foods. We were impressed by the variety of tastes we found in the wines, and the bigger mouthfeel these wines get from being left on the lees. Wait, you don't know what lees are? Just listen in and we'll tell you!  Wines reviewed in this episode: 2022 Basa Lore Txakoli Hondarrabi Zuri, 2022 Inazio Urruzola Txakolina, 2022 Hiruzta TxakoliContact The Wine Pair Podcast - we'd love to hear from you!Visit our website, leave a review, and reach out to us: https://thewinepairpodcast.com/Follow and DM us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewinepairpodcast/Send us an email: joe@thewinepairpodcast.com

Growing up in Angola, Luis Seabra returned to Portugal in the 1970's. He studied viticulture at Vila Real and his obsession with terroir led him to work in soil research in Vinho Verde. He launched a revolutionary still wine program while working at Nierpoort, eventually starting his own small winery in 2013, Luis Seabra Vinhos. To Luis, it is all about making wines he enjoys drinking: elegant, fresh, terroir-driven wines that are also age-worthy. Luis Seabra is the most exciting winemaker in Portugal today.  Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.

Portugal kann so viel mehr sein als nur die Algarve, Vinho Verde und Fado. In der kleinen Stadt Fatima in Zentralportugal etwa erschien im Jahr 1917 drei Hirtenkindern sechs Mal die Gottesmutter, und später sahen hier Abertausende das sogenannte Sonnenwunder. Heute ist das Heiligtum von Fatima eines der bekanntesten in der römisch-katholischen Kirche mit jährlich über sechs Millionen Pilgern. Doch Portugal ist auch eine alte Seefahrernation und darum sind die Leuchttürme mehr als nur nautische Wegmarken und Warnsignale. Sie sind marine Sehenswürdigkeiten, mal zierlich, mal wuchtig. Und jeder Leuchtturm hat seine Geschichte aus einer Zeit, als die Leuchttürme noch von einsamen Männern betrieben wurden. Und wenn auch Portugal zutiefst gläubig ist, so werden Kirchen doch auch für andere Zwecke genutzt. In der mittelalterlichen Stadt Orbidos etwa ist aus der dortigen Kirche ein Bücherladen geworden, voluminös und mit allem, was den Leser erfreut. Ein seltsames Gefühl, auf der Altarebene zu sitzen und etwa Fernando Pessoa zu lesen. Peter Kaiser war für ‚Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti‘ unterwegs.

Durante o verão europeu, a pequena fábrica de Maria e Luciano Maia chega a produzir cerca de 1600 kg de queijo por mês. O casal já exporta o produto para muitos países do continente. Fábia Belém, correspondente da RFI em PortugalQuando Maria Maia trocou o Brasil por Portugal, no começo de 2015, não pensava em montar uma fábrica de queijo coalho e conquistar o paladar de portugueses “e estrangeiros em geral”, frisa a pernambucana.Muito consumido no nordeste do Brasil, o queijo coalho está presente em diversos pratos tradicionais da região, como na sobremesa cartola ou no escondidinho de carne de charque ou de camarão, por exemplo."A gente come queijo coalho na praia, na rua, nos eventos, com cuscuz, com pão, com tapioca”, explica Maria.Queijo coalho na malaHá oito anos, mesmo morando em Portugal, Maria continuava dona de uma empresa com sede no Recife, o que exigia dela idas frequentes à capital pernambucana, de onde sempre trazia, na mala, algumas iguarias típicas do lugar onde nasceu. Foi depois de uma dessas viagens que surgiu a ideia de produzir queijo coalho em terras lusitanas.Segundo a empresária, em 2015 não existia queijo coalho no país. Para matar a saudade da comida da terra natal, ela trazia, na mala, carne de sol e queijo coalho embalados a vácuo. “Numa dessas idas e vindas, quando cheguei, meu esposo perguntou: ‘Você trouxe o meu queijo?'”. Maria não tinha tido tempo para comprar o produto, mas prometeu fazer o queijo de tradição nordestina.Para colher mais informações sobre a produção artesanal do queijo coalho, Maia recorreu a parentes que têm pequenos laticínios  - empresas de produtos derivados do leite   - no interior de Pernambuco. O passo seguinte foi comprar a matéria-prima de uma vacaria e produzir, em casa, o próprio queijo coalho. A prova do produto ficou por conta do marido e dos vizinhos.  “[Eles] acharam [o queijo] delicioso, melhor do que o do Brasil. Eu disse ‘Ótimo, vou fazer uma fábrica'. Comecei a buscar meios de produzir.”A fábricaFoi nos arredores de Braga, cidade localizada no norte de Portugal, que Maria Maia e o marido Luciano abriram, no final de 2015, a pequena fábrica de queijo coalho. “Fica dentro de umum curral, onde o leite sai da ordenha direto para as nossas tinas de produção”.O queijo que produzem é de “leite puro”, garante. “Ele não leva nem um tipo de aditivo nem massa. É um queijo leve e tem essa característica de não derreter. Então, isso chama a atenção das pessoas”, reforça Maria.“Queijinho das novelas brasileiras”De acordo com a empresária, em Portugal, o queijo coalho ganhou um novo nome, “pois muitos portugueses já nos falam ‘É o queijinho das novelas brasileiras'. Ela conta que frequentemente recebe telefonemas de clientes portugueses que dizem “Olha, faz muito tempo que eu comi o queijo coalho quando eu fui ao Brasil e tenho saudade”.Para portugueses e muitos brasileiros, destaca Maria Maia, o queijo coalho acaba por ser um dos produtos da cozinha dos afetos, que revela a estreita relação entre comida e boas lembranças.“Queijo por si só tem em todo canto. Só que a gente vende a memória afetiva, que é o queijo coalho.”ClientesNa fábrica, o casal conta com três funcionários. A equipe produz uma média de 800 quilos de queijo coalho por mês, mas a produção chega a dobrar nos meses de verão. O que é fabricado atende a demanda interna, além dos pedidos que chegam de países como França, Suíça, Itália, Bélgica, Inglaterra, Irlanda, Luxemburgo. “A gente começou a exportar porque era novidade e não existia na Europa, lembra Maria.Entre os clientes, estão consumidores finais, além de restaurantes e pequenos mercados que vendem produtos brasileiros ou de outras nacionalidades.EventosNos meses de verão, Maria leva dois food trucks para eventos que acontecem na região norte de Portugal. “Não só da comunidade brasileira”, frisa. “Nós também participamos de eventos tipicamente portugueses, como o Festival do Vinho Verde, Do Bira ao Samba, festivais de cerveja que são produzidos por portugueses”.Nessas festas de verão, que acontecem todos os finais de semana, o queijo coalho é comercializado assado e servido em pequenos espetos de madeira. Dependendo do gosto, o cliente compra com ou sem oréganos, mas também existe a versão doce com melaço de cana, com doce de leite ou com goiabada cremosa, explica.“Num evento, no ano passado, um francês comeu oito espetos”, lembra com entusiasmo a empreendedora brasileira, que é psicóloga de formação. Maria Maia diz que tem de se apaixonar por tudo que faz, “senão, a gente não tem sucesso”.

The Gaslight Effect  explains the long-term effects of repeated gaslighting: an insidious and sometimes covert form of emotional abuse in which a gaslighter undermines and controls another person by deflecting, twisting, and denying their reality. Gaslighting can happen in a romantic relationship, between family members, or at work—but in every case, it leaves you constantly second-guessing yourself, unable to make simple decisions, and destabilized from the constant reality shifts.The Gaslight Effect Recovery Guide is a tool for personal exploration that will help you identify if you are part of a pattern of emotional abuse and pull yourself out of that dynamic with a few crucial mindset shifts. Through prompts, checklists, quizzes, and guided reflective questions, you will explore past and present relationships, gain the confidence to leave an abusive partner or set boundaries in an unavoidable situation, and heal after gaslighting.  This interactive workbook will help you:Name the Gaslight Effect and identify abuse in any relationship.Heal a relationship or free yourself from a gaslighting dynamic.Learn what makes you vulnerable to gaslighting.Deepen your self-awareness and self-compassion.Expand your capacity to trust yourself and reach out to others for support.The Gaslight Effect Recovery Guide will help you reveal the truth behind gaslighting interactions, allowing you to cultivate happy, healthy relationships and regain your joy, creativity, and sense of self.About our guest:Robin Stern, Ph.D., is the co-founder and associate director for the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence.

Join me for my travels through Portugal. In this podcast version of Exploring Portugal, Drinking Wine, you'll meet Carlos de Jesus, the Director of Marketing and Communications of Amorim Cork. From then on, you'll have a newfound respect for the next cork you pull from a bottle! Then I'll sit with Sophia Renquivst from deep within the majestic Douro River Valley. She's been involved with the family's Quinta de la Rosa for most of her life. You can stay at their successful Port house, enjoy the fruits of their labor and the stunning scenery.  The setting for the next interview is like a fantasy land. I sit with Fabiano at Quinta da Avaleda winery in the popular Vinho Verde region. For images and a more detailed story look for my travel blog "Exploring Porgutal, Drinking Wine" at OnTheWineRoad.us. Enjoy the exploration!

Originally aired November 2022: The Thieves are  back in Europe to explore the wealth of indigenous grape varieties and stunning stunning old vineyards found in Portugal.  Exactly how this sliver of the Iberian peninsula has been able to safeguard traditions, vineyards and distinctive regional character is what Sara and John are out to learn in this special reissue episode.  They have a hunch that large-volume producers have a role to play, and invite three important guests to investigate: Martim Guedes, the Co-CEO of Aveleda (along with Antonio Guedes). Martim's great-great grandfather Manoel Pedro Guedes founded Quinta da Aveleda in the Minho region 150 years ago, helping the wines of Vinho Verde achieve international recognition . The company has since expanded to the Douro, Bairrada and Algarve, and exports to more than 70 countries.Luís Almada is an Executive Board Member of Casa Santos Lima, a family owned company that makes wine in Lisboa, Algarve, Alentejo, Vinho Verde and the Douro, exporting 90% of its total production to more than 50 countries on 5 continents.  Casa Santos Lima is It is the largest single producer of Vinho Regional Lisboa (responsible for the production of more than 50% of all the certified wine in the Lisboa region) and DOC Alenquer.Pedro da Fonseca is  managing partner of Vicente Leite Faria in the Douro Valley, drawing on fruit from estate vineyards as well as hundreds of small growers that together account for over 500 hectares of vineyards.  Born in Portugal but raised in Canada, Pedro studied at York University in Toronto before earning a Master's degree from Harvard, and he's currently a PhD candidate at the London Metropolitan University. Pedro has a sincere love for wines of his mother country and their proliferation abroad. We delve into topics such as the incentivization of small growers by large producers,  land conservation, and the preservation and re-propagation of rare, indigenous grapes. Although other countries such as the Republic of Georgia, Greece, and Italy can also boast many indigenous grapes, Portugal claims the highest density, some 250 varieties across an area six times smaller than France (551,500 km² vs. 92,120 km²).  But many are on the verge of extinction. We'll find out what large wine companies are doing to help protect and preserve grape varieties that are at risk such as Azal, Codega do Larinho, Sousao, Tinta Grossa, and Jampal, among many others. Climate change has also affected Portugal harder than many wine regions, pushing Portuguese growers to become global leaders in responding to the climate threat.  You'll find out what environmental initiatives these leading brands have undertaken, and how have these practices have had an impact on the industry at large.Join John and Sara for an invigorating discussion on the role of leading brands safeguarding land, grapes and traditions in Portugal. Sponsored by ViniPortugal. 

From the fortified Port wines of the Douro Valley to the bright, crispy whites of Vinho Verde, Portugal is one of the most diverse and interesting wine regions of the world—yet still remains under-the-radar. Having just returned from a month-long trek through the region, Amanda is downloading everything she gathered, including some of the surprising techniques used to make Port, unusual dishes like Percebes, and why this stunning region might be her favorite in the world.

The Thieves are  back in Europe with a look at the wealth of great value wines available in Portugal. A country that has been able to preserve and protect a great number of indigenous grape varieties, Portugal is home to a wealth of stunning old vineyard sites owned by a multitude of small growers.  How safeguarding traditions, vineyards and distinctive regional character is achieved, is what Sara and John would like to know more about but they have a hunch that large-volume producers have a role to play.In this episode, they delve into topics such as the incentivization of growers from large producers, as well the preservation of land under vine in Portugal, which has been on a steady decline since 2007, like much of Europe.  Within the framework of land conservation, they will also discuss the preservation of rare and indigenous grape varieties in Portugal. There are a few countries in the world, such as the Republic of Georgia, Greece, Italy and Portugal where very rare indigenous wine grapes are found. In fact, Portugal has a surface area six times smaller than France (551,500 km²), has over 250 varieties. This gives Portugal (92,120 km²) the highest density of indigenous wine grapes in the world, and many are on the verge of extinction. We'll find out what large wine companies can do to help protect and preserve grape varieties that are at risk such as Azal, Codega do Larinho, Sousao, Tinta Grossa, and the uber rare Jampal. Also up for discussion is how climate change has affected large scale grape farming in Portugal. Hit harder than most wine regions by rising temperatures and drought, Portugal is emerging as a global leader in responding to the climate threat.  You'll find out what, if any environmental initiatives guests of leading brands use and how have these practices had an impact on the growers they employ or other wineries in the region. AND finally, we'll hear about the evolution of export practices.Joining  the discussion is Martim Guedes, the Co-CEO of Aveleda (along with Antonio Guedes). Martim's great-great grandfather Manoel Pedro Guedes founded Quinta da Aveleda 150 years ago. Manoel was a pioneer in the region helping the wines of Vinho Verde to achieve international recognition and brought viticultural savoir-faire from Bordeaux to the region helping to improve quality production. The company has since expanded its presence outside of Minho to Douro, Bairrada and Algarve and exports to more than 70 countries. The Thieves are also pleased to welcome Luís Almada to the program who is the Executive Board Member of Casa Santos Lima and Vicente Leite Faria. Luís has a Masters of Wine Business from the University of Adelaide and then began working with Casa Santos Lima 9 years ago. Casa Santos Lima is a family owned company who makes wine in Lisboa, Algarve, Alentejo, Vinho Verde and the Douro, exporting 90% of its total production to more than 50 countries in all 5 continents. It is the largest single producer of Vinho Regional Lisboa (responsible for the production of more than 50% of all the certified wine in the Lisboa region) and DOC Alenquer. Chiming in as well is Pedro da Fonseca, the managing partner of Vicente Leite Faria in the Douro. Born in Portugal but grew up in Canada, Pedro studied in Toronto at York University before receiving is Master's degree from Harvard and is currently a PhD candidate at the London Metropolitan University. Pedro has a sincere love for wines of his mother country and its proliferation abroad. Join John and Sara for an invigorating discussion on the role of leading brands safeguarding land, grapes and tradition in Portugal. This episode is made in partnership with ViniPortugal.

Wine is a product of nature, human intervention, chemistry, and it's subject to many outside influences – storage, transport, handling – that can do a number on what's inside the bottle. In this episode, we cover the main things that could go wrong with wine, how they got there, and what to do about it (where possible)! Photo: Pixabay Shout out to Jamie Goode, the outstanding scientist and wine writer who makes so many complex science concepts so easy to understand. Here is the link to his book, “The Science of Wine from Vine to Glass,” from which some of the reference materials for the pod were taken. Also to “Sotheby's Wine Encyclopedia,” who (always with the humor of Tom Stevenson) brings up a number of very real faults that a lot of the mainstream wine press forget to mention (sauerkraut, anyone?). Other sources are below!   Here are the show notes: We start with defining what a flaw is in a wine, versus a taint, as defined by Jamie Goode. Then we talk about just plain old sucky wine. Flaw v Taint: Flaw is endemic to the wine, it happened in winemaking or vineyard Taint is from outside winemaking, like from packaging or from the winery We discuss the Japanese concept that talks about how small flaws can accentuate beauty (it is called Wabi-Sabi, the art of imperfection). Not all technical flaws are bad!     NOT FLAWS: Next we tackle things that need to be dealt with, but aren't flaws or taints: Sediment: What is it? Tannin chains combining and falling out of solution. Looks like your coffee filter threw up or there are brown flakes in the wine. What do you do? Decant, get a filter Sediment on a glass from Canva Images Cork floating in your wine: What is it? User error or an old cork. If you break the cork when you take it out, it may drop some flakes into the wine. If it's an old cork, this is even more likely! What do you do? Fish it out with you finger, a spoon, or get a filter Film/oily looking stuff on the surface: What is it? Most likely it's dishwashing soap residue from either glasses or decanter What do you do? Clean your glasses of the residue, send the glass back if you're in a restaurant. At home, warm water is often good enough to clean wine glasses as long as you have a good brush   Bubblegum, pear drop, nail-polish like aromas: What is it? These aromas come from carbonic maceration, a red winemaking technique where the winemaker ferments the grapes with no oxygen or yeast. Instead they use carbon dioxide to promote the conversion of sugar and malic acid to alcohol. Byproducts of this process are these aromas, and more to boot. Overly cool fermentations can also cause these types of aromas. What do you do? If you hate this, chuck the bottle or give it away and remember you don't like wines made with carbonic maceration. Never buy Beaujolais Nouveau! Tartrate crystals: What is it? Crystals appear either on the side of the cork that was in contact with the wine or, often, at the bottom of the glass in white wines. Tartaric acid was not fined, filtered or stabilized out so tartaric acid crystals formed and the wine cleaned itself up naturally! What do you do? Dare I say it again? Get a filter and get them out if they are in your wine. If they are on the cork, admire how pretty they are and enjoy the wine. Earthiness, green pepper notes: What is it? Just normal wine flavors. The earthiness could be from terroir or it could be the grape. Green pepper is from a compound called methoxypyrazine that is common in Cabernet Sauvignon and its parents, Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc What do you do? If you love it, drink wines with those profiles. If not, there are plenty of wines without these characteristics Before getting into the major faults, I discuss one that is on the line: Cloudy/Hazy wine: If it's not sediment causing the problem, it could be protein. It may settle out or it may just be part of the wine. Natural wines and unfiltered wines have haze often. Just proceed with caution if you see it. It could be fine or indicate a flaw to come.     Then we hit the hard-core flaws   1. Cork taint What is it? It comes across as musty, wet dog, wet wool, cardboard or, at lower levels, as a wine with acidity and bitterness but no fruit flavor. It is caused by a molecule called TCA, which lives in the pockets of corks but also barrels, cardboard, wood cases, and corks (so yes, screw cap wines can have taint!)   What do you do? About 1-3 bottles in 100 have TCA taint, since cork is better chosen and sanitized now. People also use cork alternatives – plastic corks, screw caps, etc, but event those aren't foolproof. If you get a corked wine, return it. There's no fixing it (although occasionally if the wine is just musty, a good swirl and some time will bring it back)   Photo: Pexels    2. Oxidation What is it? When too much oxygen enters the wine in production, bottling, or storage (the cork or screw cap wasn't affixed properly), the wine can be exposed to too much oxygen. Oxygen is important to making a wine taste great when it's in your glass but if it has too much oxygen before you are ready to drink it, it can make white wines a little brown/tawny, reds a little orange/brown. They will have Sherry-like notes, which shouldn't be there and they will acquire nutty, smelly caramel notes in reds or, if it occurs with Volatile Acidity – vinegar notes. Oxidized wine can also be flat in flavor and aroma   What do you do? If it tastes ok to you, drink it! It won't get better so if you hate it and it's oxidized, bring it back       3. Volatile acidity (VA) What is it? When acetic acid or lactic bacteria is present on the grapes or in the winemaking and has these substances have sufficient oxygen to grow, the wine will taste like vinegar, or nail polish remover. At low levels, VA can present savory and sweet notes that taste good, but at high levels the wine is undrinkable. What do you do? Bring it back for an exchange or refund     5. Reduction/sulfur issues What is it? If you make wine in a reductive fashion – with very little oxygen and utilize too much sulfur, things can go wrong. Yeast make volatile sulfur compounds and things go bad quickly. Hopefully the winemaker catches it before bottling. If not, your wine will smell like burnt rubber, skunk, onion, garlic, rotten eggs, and smelly drains. These are ethyl mercaptans and they are so gross.   What do you do? If any of the above listed smells are in your wine, return it. There is one related thing, however, that may be ok: the smell of matchstick or flint. You may find those aromas in wines that have been made in a reductive fashion. If you swirl or aerate the wine, it will blow off. If your wine has a struck match aroma, rather than a burnt one, give it a few minutes before you issue a verdict and return it.   Reductive wines can smell like skunk!  Photo: Pixabay   5. Maderized wine What is it? The wine has been cooked from poor storage or transport. Often these wines are also oxidized (bonus!). They taste like stewed fruit, burnt caramel, and jam. If you look at cork you may see wine leaking out, and when you remove the cork, there is often wine up and down the sides   What do you do? The wine is toast. You can't save it, so return it.     6. Bubbles in a still wine: What is it? Carbon dioxide has infiltrated the wine. It could be added for texture and style fizz like in Vinho Verde, some Austrian and German wines. OR, and this is the flaw, the wine was bottles with too much residual sugar after fermentation, and yeast were still alive. That fizz is an unplanned secondary fermentation happening in the bottle: re-fermentation has started   What do you do? If it's intentional, it's great. You can swirl to get the bubbles out and that sometimes works if you don't like seeing bubbles (or you can just make peace with them)! If it's frothy from secondary fermentation – it's spoiled, bring it back to the shop.       7. Lightstrike What is it? Ultraviolet (UV) and blue rays from artificial lights and the sun break up amino acids in wine and cause it to stink like cabbage, cauliflower, farmyard/poo skunk, and cardboard. This fault happens most often with whites and wine in clear bottles. According to San Francisco retailer J.J. Buckley, clear bottles block only 10% of light, amber bottles block 90% of light, and green bottles block 50% of light. That means whites and rosés in clear bottles are especially susceptible.   What do you do? The bottle is ruined, return it Cabbage smelling wine is often from Lightstrike Photo: Pixabay    8. Brettanomyces: What is it? Metabolites produced by yeast called Brettanomyces bruxellensis – (shortened to brett in wine parlance), wait around until AFTER fermentation, then they consume the residual sugar saccharomyces cerevisiae (normal yeast) have left. The byproducts are flavor chemicals that can lead to manure, horse saddle, band aid, medicinal, and metallic notes. This happens mostly in red wines, as white wines have acidity to protect them.   What do you do? How you view the wine is really based on taste. Flavors vary based on the strain of brett, and the level of it in the wine. At low levels it adds gaminess, earthiness, spice, and savory notes to the wine. It can be hard to pinpoint in a wine. If you like these types of flavors, you likely enjoy brett. If not, stick with more New World wines from larger wineries, as they really try to eliminate all traces of the metabolite!     9. Mousy What is it? In wines without sulfite protection, mainly natural wines these days, the wine has a few molecules that smell like a mouse or mouse pee. The wine can seem fine when you open it but then the aroma and flavor can appear as the wine is in the glass. Often it just stinks right from the get-go   What do you do? Sensitivity varies. Some people hate it, some are ok with it. Some can really detect it, others don't notice it. Again, it's down to personal choice whether or not you return the wine for the flaw or accept and like it.   10. Smoke taint Fires in California have caused smoke taint. Photo: Unsplash   What is it? A direct result of nearby wildfires. According to Australian research, grapes are most susceptible to smoke, ash, ashtray, singed, and cured meat notes if fires are near the grapes from the period after veraison (when grapes change color, the last stage of ripening) through harvest. Flavor compounds permeate the skins, especially and the result is red wines that are nearly impossible to save. Whites from wildfire vintages are usually ok, as there is no skin contact necessary and the pulp is protected by the skins, but red wines can't be fixed without affecting wine quality, for now.   What do you do? For now, there is no solution to smoke taint. If you see a wine is from a vintage and an area that had wildfires, caveat emptor. Some wineries will release a wine even if it's like choking on an ashtray. Better to stick with whites from the area, if you can.    _______________________________ Other stuff not always on the taint list!   Soapiness: Happens when acids produced by yeast are like salts: Caprylic acid salt (decanoic acid), and leave a soapy taste especially in white wines. They smell like soap but are fruitier. This note is common in high-alcohol wines. (Source: the "Le Nez Du Vin" wine faults kit and Sotheby's Wine Encyclopedia). Like everything, a small amount is tolerable, a larger amount is a fault (and of course, make sure that soapiness isn't from actual soap, as previously mentioned) Soapiness is a fault in a wine!    Cheese: If it's subtle or in an old Riesling, cheese notes are usually good and integrate with the wine's flavors. If it's more like stinky cheese, it's from ethyl butryrate and the wine is done: Take it back     Geranium notes in sweet wines are from sorbic acid or the degradation of geraniol aromas. It is considered a flaw, as are the phenol off-flavors of Carnation notes. Whether or not you like the wine is a matter of taste, but in high concentrations, it is gross and a flaw.   Sauerkraut notes are a bridge too far beyond sour milk or sour cream and are from too much bacteria in the malolactic fermentation. Yuck! This is a definite return to the shop!     This is by no means a total and complete list, but we did the best we can and hopefully it will help you ID what is a flawed or tainted wine and what is just a wine that is poorly made and bad.   _______________________________________________________________ Thanks to our sponsors this week:  Wine Spies uncovers incredible wines at unreal prices - on Zinfandel, Barolo, Champagne...you name it - up to 75% off!

Vinho Verde, the DOC (Denomination of Controlled Origin) Region, has made wine since Roman times. This region is one of the largest DOCs in Europe but within its boundaries there are vast differences between the nine sub regions. In this show,  Mafalda Teixeira Coelho, co-owner of Quinta da Raza and Pedro Campos, winemaker clear up a lot of the misconceptions about Vinho Verde. We learn about the terroir of this old and complex region, the various subregions, and how serious, and sometimes ageworthy wine is being produced here.   Photo: Mafalda Teixeira Coelho, co-owner of Quinta da Raza and Pedro Campos, winemaker (c)Wine For Normal People  In September 2021, I visited the region and I just loved the wines of Quinta da Raza, I adored Mafalda and Pedro, and I thought they were perfect representatives to tell us about their corner of this big region, in Basto, and what they are capable of making in this unique terroir.   Here's what we discuss in the show: The diversity of Vinho Verde, it's 9 sub regions and how proximity to the sea, position in the mountains, and soil type make big differences in the grapes you can grow and the resulting wines. Map: Vinho Verde Commission   Pedro tells us about the Basto subregion, where Quinta da Raza is located. It is inland, on granite, schist, and clay soils. The location is a bit more continental with warmer summers and cooler winters than places near the coast, meaning grapes can get fully ripe and quite flavorful.   To understand Vinho Verde, you must understand the nuance between the granite terroir v. the schist terroir. Pedro tells us what the differences are and why they matter.   Mafalda shares the history of the estate and how it was passed down to her husband Diogo, who she manages things with today. Mafalda Teixeira Coelho, co-owner of Quinta da Raza and her daughters, (c)Wine For Normal People  Pedro tells us about the main grapes of the region: Azal, Alvarinho, Avesso, Arinto, Trajadura, and the reds Padeiro and Vinhão. He tells us about the various brands of Quinta da Raza Dom Diogo is the traditional brand that is sold mainly in the Portuguese market Quinta da Raza is a more international style, and where you'll find those more serious whites like Alvarinho, Avesso, and Gouveio Raza is the very traditional, fizzy Vinho Verde of Arinto, Trajadura, and Azal, with the Rosé made of Vinhão, Padeiro and Espadeiro Nat their line of Pet Nat (Petillant Naturel), sparkling wine made in the ancestral method with a single fermentation happening in the bottle from which you drink it   We discuss some of the important techniques they use to get high quality wine – traditional things like hand harvesting grapes and foot treading in stone lagares, and then more modern things like using stainless steel tanks and modern winemaking techniques. Hand harvest at Quinta da Raza (c)Wine For Normal People  Pedro tells us Alvarinho and Avesso are good candidates for aging, with Gouveio as a possible third.   We finish the conversation by talking about Quinta da Raza's commitment to sustainability and the bright future for the Vinho Verde region and for the winery.   Quinta da Raza's wines are fantastic. Seek out the basic Raza, but try to find the single varietals, they are inexpensive and drink way above their price point!   ________________________ From our Sponsors...

Vingo Verde is one of the hottest wine categories in America right now. The quality coming from this important region of Portugal is creating consumer awareness of this slightly bubbly wine.  The wine regions of Portugal are plenty and anchored by the infamous Port wines. Most American consumers are not aware of the plethora of still wines being produced there, let alone the variety of styles and complexities.  In 1993, my father and I visited Vin Expo and to our surprise, because the show was so large, we were left to fend for ourselves to taste wine. During the podcast I gained concurrence from Mafalda that the still wines of Portugal had a long way to go and were quite undrinkable at the point.  Not the story today, like many wine producing countries in the world, Portugal has emerged through technology and passion, in the world of wine as a force to consider. Have a listen to Mafalda.

We're heading out the ballgame!  This week's Cinemavino kicks off our six-week series of baseball movies.  Episode one is at the top of my all-time favorites:  Bull Durham.  It was a modest hit when it came out, but Ron Shelton's rom-com has slowly gained steam as one the best baseball flicks ever. We pair this cult classic […] The post Bull Durham (Vinho Verde) appeared first on Cinemavino.
