Are you curious what it would be like to ask for wine advice from legendary Hugh Johnson, author of The World Atlas of Wine, among many other books? What would he advise you on how you can improve your wine-tasting skill and pleasure? Why was Hugh initially against wine scoring and how has his perspective changed over the years? What makes a wine great in Hugh's opinion? Why does Hugh now prefer English sparkling wines over his long-time favourite Pol Roger Champagne? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Hugh Johnson. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Two of you will win a copy of his marvellous memoir, The Life and Wines of Hugh Johnson. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights What is it about Chablis that makes it Hugh's favourite white wine? How have English sparkling wines changed over the years and why does Hugh now turn to them more than his long-time favourite Champagne Pol Roger? Why is it important to taste high-quality wines at the beginning of your wine journey, if you can afford it? How can you improve your wine-tasting skill and pleasure? How did Hugh's first writing job at Vogue magazine lead to his extensive wine writing career? How did The World Atlas of Wine revolutionize the way wine and wineries were understood? What have been the most surprising changes Hugh has seen in the wine world over the years? What was it like for Hugh to buy his first case of First Growth Bordeaux? How does Hugh remember his first encounter with Robert Parker's wine scoring system and his initial skepticism?   Key Takeaways What advice does Hugh have on improving your wine-tasting skill and pleasure? The first thing you have to do is concentrate on the wine. Look at the color, sniff it, take a sip, but then when you take a sip, think about it. Keep it in your mouth for a moment or two, chew on it. Swirl it around until it registers, and you experience the wine more fully. Hugh asks how can you score wine any more than you can score Mozart or your friends? He didn't believe in an objective scale or giving the wrong impression that one wine is better than another. Over the years, he's accepted scoring within a narrow range say for wine competition categories where all the wines are from the same region and grape. Hugh says he's had an account with the house of Pol Roger for about 60 years but more recently, he's been switching to English sparkling wine. He observes they have a brilliant wine industry in England. Climate change is part of it, but they're also now using champagne grapes to make the wine.   About Hugh Johnson Hugh Johnson is the world's best-known wine writer, having sold more than 20 million books worldwide over a 60-year career. He began acquiring his wine knowledge as a member of the Wine and Food Society at Cambridge University before becoming a feature writer for Vogue and House & Garden magazines.         To learn more, visit https://www.nataliemaclean.com/313.

This week, we're on the road at The Whisky Exchange's Whisky Show in London. We'll have highlights from the weekend, including an interview with Dave Broom on his latest book, the third edition of the World Atlas of Whisky. 

It's that time of year again–reliably bumming out students and parents alike… it 's back to school! But back to school is also a time to reflect on the state of education in this country… and it's not all that great.  America is one of the richest countries in the world. But you wouldn't know it if you looked at our education statistics. We're 16th in science globally. In Math, we scored below the average and well below the scores of the top five countries, all of which were in Asia. And in 2018, we ranked an astonishing 125th in literacy among all countries according to the World Atlas.  As we tumble down the international tables, public schools around the country are getting rid of gifted and talented programs. They're getting rid of standardized testing. All while trying to regain ground from COVID-related learning loss… So how did we get here? Why have public schools deprioritized literacy and numeracy? What role have teachers' unions played in advocating for public education in this country and also in holding kids back by protecting bad teachers? How is socioeconomic segregation hurting academic performance? And what kinds of books should really be taught in public schools?  Today, we're diving deep into these questions and more with three experts who bring diverse perspectives to this debate: Richard Kahlenberg is Director of the American Identity Project and Director of Housing at the Progressive Policy Institute. His many books and essays have focused on addressing economic disparities in education. Maud Maron is co-founder of PLACE NYC, which advocates for improving the academic rigor and standards of K-12 public school curricula. She's also the mother of four kids in New York City public schools. Erika Sanzi is a former educator and school dean in Rhode Island. She is Director of Outreach at Parents Defending Education, which aims to fight ideological indoctrination in the classroom.  We discuss the misallocation of resources in education, the promise and perils of school choice, and how we can fix our broken education system.  And if you like this conversation, good news! All week this week at The Free Press—as summer ends and kids return to class—we're pausing our usual news coverage to talk about education. We've invited six writers to answer the question: What didn't school teach you?  With elite colleges peddling courses on “Queering Video Games,” “Decolonial Black Feminist Magic,” and “What Is a Settler Text?,” there's never been a better time to go back to the proverbial school of life.

Heute geht es einerseits um das Genus, das sprachliche Geschlecht, das aber natürlich eigentlich gar kein Geschlecht ist. Woher kommt es und warum und wozu haben wir es im Deutschen? Andererseits geht es um den Sexus, das außersprachliche, realweltliche Geschlecht einer Person oder eines Tieres (egal, ob biologisch, sozial, psychologisch oder juristisch). Vor allem aber geht es um den Zusammenhang zwischen Genus und Sexus: mit der grammatischen Kategorie Genus kann man nämlich ganz einfach das Geschlecht einer Person oder eines Tieres ausdrücken.

In this episode, Christopher Moseley talked about the state of the Estonian Language, Translations, his work on Minority and Endangered Languages and his Translation 'The Man Who Spoke Snakish' a Beautiful moving story of a boy who is tasked with preserving ancient traditions in the face of modernity written by Famous Estonian Author Andrus Kivirähk.Christopher Moseley has been the General Editor of the UNESCO Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger since 2008 and is now a member of the editorial team of its successor, the World Atlas of Languages. From 2007 to 2011, he was a Teaching Fellow in Latvian at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies at University College, London. Originally from Australia, he came to Britain to study Scandinavian languages in 1974, but since then, his main interests have slipped eastwards to Finland and the Baltic countries. While working as a journalist and translator specialising in Baltic affairs at BBC Monitoring, Caversham, he completed a M.Phil., also at SSEES, on the dying Livonian language of Latvia – a close relative of Estonian. After 19 years' service at the BBC, he became a freelance translator and editor in 2005. He is the author of Colloquial Estonian and co-author of Colloquial Latvian for Routledge. He has also co-edited the Routledge Atlas of the World's Languages and edited the same publisher's Encyclopedia of the World's Endangered Languages and most recently the third edition of the Atlas of the world's languages in danger for UNESCO.

The German Air Force's 1943 map of the Medoc was used to create the base material for the Bordeaux Wine Atlas map. One of the fascinating facts in a special podcast on how wine maps are created with wine map guru Chris Foulkes. Chris has arguably more experience in creating wine maps than anyone. He oversaw the 3rd edition of the World Atlas of Wine, published the Bordeaux Atlas and recently Inside Burgundy by Jasper Morris MW and Inside Bordeaux by Jane Anson. Listen in to hear his stories about the challenges he faced in creating the maps, how before Google Earth he employed a young man with a bicycle to travel around the Medoc to check estate boundaries, the deliberate errors inserted to avoid copyright theft, and much more. His latest venture is publishing a special edition print of Jane Anson's map which for the first time shows the terroir and the position of the chateau, recently launched on her site www.janeanson.com. You will never look at a wine map in the same way again!Find out more at wine-conversation.com

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Saturday, March 9 It's a retro party! Celebrate the space age at Blenko's annual Festival of Glass. Break out your best Hamlet impersonation at High Ground Brewing's ShakesBEER festival. And find out why West Virginia is a great place to retire. (Hint: It's Almost Heaven!) … on today's daily304. #1 – From BLENKO – Have you ever wondered what it's like to be a glassblower? Now's your chance! Blenko Glass Company celebrates the Year of New Space Age Design at its annual Festival of Glass, set for April 5-6 at its factory in Milton. The weekend will include classes and experiences with glass, demonstrations from Blenko's Guest Artists and Designers, a vintage sale, food trucks, and a Saturday night concert from Huntington's Grown Ass Folks.   The centerpiece of the Festival's wares is the Lift Off Decanter. Invoking classic mid century motifs, the crystal decanter with a straight optic calls to mind the lift off cloud from the cheekily nostalgic Rocket stopper, available in two colorways, Ruby or Cobalt. The rocket decanter stopper is modeled on the V2 rocket and mid century space age designs as much as by the toys that inspired a generation to dream of going into space.  Workshops include hands-on experiences like Blow-Your-Own 384 Water Bottles. A class schedule and registration will be available at noon Eastern, Monday, March 11 on the company website. Read more: https://blenko.com/pages/events #2 – From WBOY-TV – Cheers to you!

This year's event is based on Shakespeare's “Julius Caesar,” which the Rustic Mechanicals are currently touring. The festival will feature live music, games and giveaways, as well as a few Rustic Mechanical specialties, including open mic Shakespeareoke and its own beer, Mash Ado About Nothing, which is described in a press release as a “clever, English Mild beer that is sure to keep the festivities going all night long!” Read more: https://www.wboy.com/news/preston/shakesbeer-festival-returning-to-west-virginia/   #3 – From WORLD ATLAS –  With its beautiful mountains and pastoral scenery, West Virginia easily lives up to its nickname, “Almost Heaven.” It's also home to many of the top-ranked towns for retirees, thanks to its small-town charm and low cost of living.

This week's show covers the southern part of the Côte de Nuits, south of Gevrey-Chambertin. In this part of the Côte de Nuits you will find some of the most famed, expensive and coveted Pinot Noir on earth. We start with a recap of episode 464 to tie these two shows together. Then we work our way through the southern half of the Côte de Nuits. Like the first show, this is quite a download and we try to provide a structure for understanding this study in terroir, and what matters most when thinking about Burgundy's Pinot Noir.    The Côte de Nuits lies between the city of Dijon in the north and hamlet of Nuits-Saint-Georges in the south (from which the Côte takes its name). In this small area, you will find most famed, expensive, and best Pinot Noir on earth. Most producers make less than 1,000 cases of wine a year and the prices boggle the mind. Map: Vins-Bourgogne   This time we jump right in and cover the communes south of Gevrey-Chambertin. These regions include vineyards that produce some of the most famed and expensive wines in the world. We cover: Morey-Saint-Denis and its Grands Crus Chambolle-Musigny and its Grands Crus Vougeot and its Grand Cru Flagey-Échezeaux and its Grands Crus Vosne-Romanée and its Grand Crus Nuits-Saint-Georges   We reference these podcasts in the show: Ep 464: The Côte de Nuits of Bourgogne (Burgundy), Part 1 Ep 445: Côte de Beaune, Part 1 Ep 446: Côte de Beaune, Part 2  Here's a map of the Côte de Nuits to reference during the show   Full show notes with producers and links are now exclusively available on Patreon! Become a member today! _________________________________________________________ I could not be happier to announce my partnership with Wine Access, once again.  The best, wine the best selection – this is where people in the wine industry shop for wine!

Welcome to Episode 1253 in which Marc Millon interviews Hugh Johnson award winning wine and travel writer in this installment of Wine, Food & Travel with Marc Millon on the Italian Wine Podcast. Today's interview is part of a special sub-series dedicated to some of the most influential wine personalities in the business. If you are interested in purchasing a copy of Hugh Johnson's latest book, please visit: https://academieduvinlibrary.com/ and use code ITALIANWINE in the coupon option at the checkout to receive £5 off your purchase! More about today's guest: Hugh Eric Allan Johnson is an English journalist, author, editor, and expert on wine. He is considered the world's best-selling wine writer. A wine he tasted in 1964, a 1540 Steinwein from the German vineyard Würzburger Stein, is considered one of the oldest to have ever been tasted. Hugh was born the son of Guy F. Johnson CBE and Grace Kittel, and educated at Rugby School and read English at King's College, Cambridge. Later on he became a member of the Cambridge University Wine and Food Society while an undergraduate in the 1950s. On describing his introduction to wine-tasting he recalled: “...my room-mate Adrian Cowell, committee member of the University Wine & Food Society came in after dinner with two glasses and said, "Come on, Hugh, are they the same? Or different?" Both were, I am sure, red Burgundy, but one was magic and one was ordinary. This caught my imagination. It was my Damascene moment.” Johnson has been writing about wine since 1960, was taken on as a feature writer for Condé Nast Publications upon graduation, and started work on Vogue and House & Garden, becoming in 1962 editor of Wine & Food and in the same year wine correspondent of The Sunday Times, of which in 1967 he became Travel Editor. From 1968 to 1970 he edited Queen magazine in succession to Jocelyn Stevens. He has published a wide array of books, starting with the publication of Wine in 1966. The World Atlas of Wine (1971) was considered the first serious attempt to map the world's wine regions, described by the director of the INAO as "a major event in wine literature".

Born in Mexico, with a mother from Hawaii via Korea and an anthropologist father from New York via Paris, he was weaned on exotic and delicious foods.

Bugey-Cerdon is tucked away in a sub-alpine region of France between Jura and Savoie. We explore the wine, the region, and, of course, a tiny bit of history. This is a bubbly we should really give more props to, or just find more reasons to celebrate more stuff … so we can drink more bubbly and more kinds of it.

Adrian Logue is a self confessed golf tragic who co-hosts the Good Good Golf Podcast with Rod Morri. Adrian has managed to facilitate a career in golf using computer programming and development as his professional vehicle, an unusual combination for sure, however, Adrian is not your usual software developer! In this episode we explore a little on the World Handicapping System thanks to a few questions from one of my fourball playing partners, Adrian's theory on 'eyes up golf', podcasting, golf writing, course ratings, golf paths, websites and logos and a cool trip to Barnbougle in May 2022 with the Golfers Alliance.

In Italy's arsenal of great wines of the world, Brunello di Montalcino may be the most coveted of all. Its small production and terroir-driven style represents the pinnacle of Sangiovese, widely considered Italy's most famed grape. Made in the small and historic Tuscan hilltop village of Montalcino, just south of Siena, the grapes thrive in the climate and soils of this rugged area. Although the youngest of all the Italian greats, Brunello, with its rich flavors, elegant balance of acidity and tannin, and incredible ability to improve with age, is a wine that everyone should experience even if just once in their wine lives. In this show we delve into the nuances of Brunello and talk about just what makes it so special. Photo: Montalcino town & Vineyards, from Conzorzio di Brunello di Montalcino   Here are the show notes: Location: The small production zone of Montalcino is centered to the northeast of the namesake village in a wooded, hilly area with the most notable feature being Monte Amiata, the highest peak in Southern Tuscany. The village is Iabout 25 miles/40 km south of Siena, about 40 miles 77 km from the sea, and 62 miles/100 km from the Apennine Mountains, which affects the climate   History I won't give all the detail we do in the show, but the summary is that Montalcino has had a reputation for special wines for about 600 years but the wine as we know it today wasn't created until the late 1800s. This is when first Clemente Santi, and then his grandson Ferruccio Biondi-Santi isolated the clones of Brunello/Sangiovese Grosso at their Il Greppo estate and made a wine of a quality the world had rarely seen from Italy. They began better vineyard work, meticulous cellar work, and extended aging that built the reputation of the area. Despite the accolades, the wine was such small production and Montalcino so obscure, that it wasn't until the 1970s, when others started to recognize the potential in the area and by 1980 the supply of Brunello was adequate for wine lovers to be able to access this wine, created by one passionate family (who sadly no longer owns Biondi-Santi but whose legacy remains!). Photo from Biondi-Santi   Climate Montalcino is marked by a Mediterranean climate: it is dry with some continental conditions. The area gets influences from both the coast and the mountains. Generally speaking it experiences mild summers, that permits gradual ripening of fruit. Although Central Tuscany can experience bad weather,Montalcino is protected by Mount Amiata to South, which blocks from storms and hail from destroying crops   Although everything in the above bullet is kind of true, it's important to recognize that it's a generalization: Microclimates really determine the specific wine's flavor, as does producer sourcing and style. PLACE is so important…   Land Montalcino is unique in that it's elevations and various soil types produce a range of wines that can stand alone or be blended together to create a harmonious wine. The hilly, rugged area is at elevations between 490-1640 ft/150 – 500 m and the slopes have different exposures – south and north facing slopes are used in this area for different styles of wine The soils of Montalcino vary and each impart something different – limestone for elegance, calcareous rock for minerality, galestro soils in the north for aromatic, nuanced wines, clay in the south for heavier, denser Brunello. The general rule of thumb is Northern slopes: fruit ripen more slowly, the wines are more acidic Southern and western slopes: have intense sunlight that can be tempered by cool breezes, to make complex, yet often very fruity wines Top Brunello producers own vineyards on all of the finest terroirs and blend Photo: Montalcino town & Vineyards, from Conzorzio di Brunello di Montalcino We discuss the eight sub-zones that have been proposed (but that will be a long time in coming, since it is a political hot potato): Montalcino North, Montalcino South, Castelnuovo dell'Abate, Camigliano, Tavernelle, Bosco, Torrenieri, Sant'Angelo (To see a Subzone Map Click Here) Montalcino (north and south): Known for ageable wines with complexity. These areas have the most famed producers (Biondi-Santi, Barbi, Costanti) Castelnuovo dell'Abate: Powerful wines with a balance of elegance and fruit Bosco: In the northwest is cooler with less tannic, more acidic wines Torrenieri: Clay soils make dense, tannic wines but producers are working on clones and rootstock to tame that Tavernelle: In the southwest is quite warm but has very even ripening and that means the wines are extremely consistent Camigliano: In the south this is the land of fruit bombs – it is hot, dry and wines can have a raisined note if not picked in time Sant'Angelo: The hottest driest part of Montalcino's zones. These are very tannic, very fruity and have much lower acidity. They can have high alcohol and may be accessible sooner because of all the fruit. That said, some producer's versions have high tannins and can age for decades. The upshot? Having vineyards in different subzones helps ensure consistent quality   In the vineyard Brunello, is the local clone of Sangiovese. It is also known as Sangiovese Grosso This clone is extremely site-sensitive, terroir makes a big difference. The DOCG laws require that the grape be planted on hillsides below 600 meters (right now it is believed they cannot achieve ripeness above that height) To get the good wines you need excellent sites with enough sun but cooler nighttime temperatures to maintains acidity. Brunello requires low yields, meticulous vineyard work, and discerning sorting so only the best grapes make it to the cellar.  Photo: Brunello, from Conzorzio di Brunello di Montalcino   Winemaking Traditional producers do long aging in large vats, from Slavonian oak to get complex, dry, tannic wines with little oak influence Modernists, who introduced their take on the wine in the 1980s, prefer fruitier styles with less time in barrel and more use of smaller 225-liter French oak barriques to emphasize vanilla notes, tobacco, and toastiness Laws require producers to use 100% Brunello with a minimum age of 2 years in an oak vessel (botte or barrique) and a minimum of 4 months in bottle before release (6 months for the Riserva). Brunello normale cannot be released until the January 5 years after harvest (that allows for 4 full years of aging) and Brunello Riserva cannot be release until the January 6 years after harvest (to allow for 5 full years of aging)  Photo: Botti in a cellar, from Conzorzio di Brunello di Montalcino What is the wine like? What can you expect? After all the build-up, we put some descriptors to this glorious wine. The wine is often described as having flavors and aromas of red and black fruit with underlying spice and earthiness. Depending on the style, it can be more like tea, coffee, earth, and mushrooms, balsamic, violets, and graphite, or more modern versions may show more leather, chocolate, and vanilla. The scents together are like nothing else. The key to good Brunello is the blend of fruit, acidity, good tannins (but not over the top). The idea behind Brunello is utterly perfect balance – the acidity and freshness surprise you just as the flavors thrill you. Most Brunellos can be aged for a long time, improving with time – 10 -30 years is not uncommon for these wines. Full bodied with alcohol levels around 14% or 15 percent ABV Buy wine based off producer to get the best stuff, also watch the vintage. Recent top vintages include: 2010, 2012, 2015, 2016   Food pairings ideas: Grilled and roasted red meats, game, truffles (not truffle oil!), mushroom risotto/pastas, Tuscan pecorino, aged Parmesan _______________________________________________________________ Thanks to our sponsors this week: Wine Spies uncovers incredible wines at unreal prices - on every type of wine in a variety of price points.

Jancis Robinson wrote the book on wine. Literally. The author of the first four editions of the definitive Oxford Companion to Wine, she has also published some 20 books on the subject and more than 1,500 articles for the Financial Times, for which she has been the wine correspondent since 1989. A member of the royal family's wine committee, she also helps select wines for Queen Elizabeth II. A trailblazer and a nimble scholar, Robinson—who, in addition to her work at the FT, pours her expertise into her jancisrobinson.com website—was the first wine writer ever to become an M.W., or Master of Wine, a rare distinction.With nearly five decades in the trade, Robinson has an acute awareness of the forces behind the field's constant evolution, and gives her readers context so that they can understand what it all means. Her primary interests lie not just in the flavors of wine, but rather in the stories that wines tell about where they came from, how they're made, and what they reveal about the world. A supporter of the Regenerative Viticulture Foundation, a nonprofit working to improve soil health, she also helps amplify the many ways in which the climate crisis is impacting the wine industry, such as harvest dates and “smoke taint.” By her account, the wine world is in more flux today than ever before. On this episode, Robinson speaks with Spencer about the power of old vines, the trials of translating taste and smell into language, and why some of today's most thoughtful producers are packaging great wines in cardboard boxes and cans.Special thanks to our Season 5 sponsor, L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Full transcriptjancisrobinson.com[15:10] Regenerative Viticulture Foundation[17:16] The World Atlas of Wine[22:43] Vintage Time Charts[26:47] “Ancient Vines and Stunning Wines, But Portugal's Douro Valley Has a Problem”[28:37] Historic Vineyard Society[28:48] Sideways[31:14] Jancis Robinson's Wine Course[43:09] Master of Wine exam[46:04] The Oxford Companion to Wine[49:45] The 24-Hour Wine Expert[57:53] Wine Grapes[59:53] Design Classics[01:00:51] The Royal Opera House

I had a blast speaking with my old buddy about the coffee trailer he and his wife just started. Although he does not roast coffee yet I wanted to have Nate on because I feel starting a coffee trailer or cart is great for coffee roasters who want to start selling their own coffee. Nate was very generous in providing his figures and numbers on how much it cost to start a coffee trailer and also how much you can make with a coffee trailer.  For me, it was highly motivating to hear about his journey. I am in the process of following this path and it is nice to hear others' experiences. It was also nice reconnecting with an old friend and over all things, because of coffee!  Best of luck to you brother!Please go and follow Abide Coffee Co. and if you are ever in the Destin, Florida area look them up. Follow them here where they give all the updates on where the trailer is going to be. IG: https://www.instagram.com/AbideCoffeeFL/?fbclid=IwAR3Mo12Y48I8lsBsR8jADjNG3WViYRIxt6ftSsUJdmw-F0OPgN3bVKniK0oFB:https://www.facebook.com/abidecoffeecoFavorites Coffee Books: Coffee Roasting Best Practices: https://amzn.to/38uRJih   (Deep in the weeds)The World Atlas of Coffee: https://amzn.to/3s4tiQg   (Overall view of the coffee stages)My Mic I use: Shure MV7 Mic: https://amzn.to/3fakq72Support the show

Coffee's earliest consumption dates back millennia when the tribesmen of Ethiopia used its ground-up berries to help aid concentration during prayer.  Arriving in Europe in the 17th century, Coffee quickly began to replace beer and wine as a favourite breakfast drink.  In the 20th century, coffee was blamed for high blood pressure and heart attacks, and more recently linked to a rising epidemic of poor sleep.  None of this has prevented coffee's relentless rise.

Things do not always go the way you planned but sometimes that may not be a bad thing.  Learning to accept the setbacks can be tough especially when you poured your heart and soul out for a dream that falls short of working out. We always see the success stories displayed on YouTube and the other social media platforms but I feel obligated to tell the humbling stories as well. Those moments in life that crush you and make you feel trapped.  I am very excited to be marching in this new direction and look forward to bringing you along the journey!Head up, keep moving forward, smile, and never stop learning!Favorites Coffee Books: Coffee Roasting Best Practices: https://amzn.to/38uRJih   (Deep in the weeds)The World Atlas of Coffee: https://amzn.to/3s4tiQg   (Overall view of the coffee stages)My Mic I use: Shure MV7 Mic: https://amzn.to/3fakq72Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/robpirie?fan_landing=true)
