How Tokaji still offers such incredible value for money
21 June 2019 12:10
Sales of sweet wine began dipping about 20 years ago, just at the wrong time for the wines of Tokaj. This famed wine producing region of Hungary used to provide wines to grace the tables of the kings and queens of Europe, reputedly a favourite of the Sun King himself, Louis XIV. Next year will mark 100 years since the damaging Treaty of Trianon, followed by a 20th century of political strife, but the wines themselves are increasingly consistent and top class. Seeing first hand the labour, time, and effort that go into each bottle, Mike Turner believes that these wines deserve a place on wine lists across the country and current prices are a steal for such a quality product.

The Renaissance of Armenia’s Ancient Vinelands
14 June 2019 17:32
The world’s most ancient wine-producing region, with 6,000 years of history, is barely six years into a modern winemaking renaissance. Unlike neighboring Georgia, where wine production has continued unabated for millennia, Armenia’s wine culture has ebbed and flowed, and occasionally been drowned by waves of inclement history. Yet a growing number of Armenians are returning home with ambitions to resurrect the country’s wine industry, exploring Armenia’s abundance of literally antediluvian grape varieties.

Your guide: All you need to know about Wines of Greece
02 April 2019 17:39
Greece has a long history of viticulture and vinification, and wine has always been an integral part of Greek culture and gastronomy. The country’s terrain plays a key role in the shaping of its unique wines, divided into four broad categories: Mountainous and semi-mountainous, Coastal, Continental and Volcanic. Vineyard practices, from planting to pruning and harvesting, are usually carried out entirely by hand, allows for greater attention to detail.

Wine of India
01 April 2019 14:31
Afgelopen weekend een opmerkelijke wijn in het glas gehad. Komt uit India en via de handbagage eerst naar Singapore, maandje vakantie en dan naar Nederland gebracht. En dus afgelopen weekend in mijn glas. Cabernet Sauvignon met Syrah. Het % aandeel van de Syrah wordt niet opgegeven.

Grover la reserva 2016. Halfjaar lopen ze op ons voor dus is de wijn nu drie jaar oud maar ziet er in het glas als een zeer oude man met een vol leven in de tropenzon uit. De kleur is rood bruin. Ondoorzichtig. In de neus zwart en rood fruit en vanille. In de mond komt het rode fruit terug. Een kleine bittertoon van druivenpit? Klein pepertje. Zijdezachte tannines. Fraaie lengte. Deze wijn is door Michel Rolland gemaakt. Of de wijn alhier te koop is weet ik niet. Ik zou de wijn nog wel eens willen proeven maar dan een zonder mishandeling.

Vergeten te vermelden, de wijn heeft 14% alc.

Ik heb ooit een wijn uit India gedronken welke 6 weken in een rugzak mee het hele subcontinent rond is geweest.
Was een leuk cadeau maar ook geen toppertje.
Zal er ooit zeer goede wijn uit India komen?
Re: Wine of India

Vast wel. Dit is gewoon goed. Wel een merkwaardige combi met die Syrah. Nu nog in gekoelde containers naar deze kant laten komen.

The World’s Most Expensive Wine Is From Hungary
11 March 2019 18:40
How much is too much to pay for a bottle of wine? A newly-released $40,000 bottle of 2008-vintage wine now ranks among the most expensive wines in the world at release. But the wine in question isn’t some storied Amarone or a rare French Bordeaux. This Tokaji Essencia wine hails from the Carpathian foothills of northeastern Hungary, where one of Europe’s oldest and most legendary wine regions is staging an unlikely comeback after a century of tumult all but obliterated its winemaking industry.

Maar $40.000 voor een fles wijn is mij een tandje overdreven.
