DR. VINO FEBRUARY 9, 2009 Moss-age in a bottle It’s been a long, cold 2009 here in the northeast. All the more reason to have a little winter garden. In a wine bottle. Last fall, I discovered and was immediately inspired by the work of Paula Hayes, an artist in the East Village. So I did my best to replicate her art using my own medium: wine. This also makes them better terrariums! | ALICE FEIRING FEBRUARY 24, 2009 The Fukuoka of Charnay A while back, Eric Texier told me about an elderly acupuncturist for vines he worked with. Eric also has worked biodynamically. So is it any surprise to me that he has found Fukuoka, the founder of what is called "natural farming," and is working this way on one vineyard in Charnay? But why has he hopped on to another idea? Seems to me no. Clover!" | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE FEBRUARY 25, 2009 Who is Henri Milan? In October I went to the Domaine Select Wine Estates Grand Portfolio Tasting. Although I wasn't thrilled with the bulk of what was on display, I enjoyed tasting some great wines that were new to me. Champagne by Leclaire-Gaspard and Bruno Gobillard.excellent. Hofstätter's delicious wines from Alto Adige.excellent. Remy de Provence. loved this wine! | DR. VINO FEBRUARY 16, 2009 Port by another name - but which? A giveaway In 2005, the EU and US reached a bilateral accord to end a round of negotiations that had lasted twenty years. One of the significant parts of the agreement was that American wines could no longer use place names such as Champagne, Chianti, or Port on new wine labels (for the complete list, see the press release ).

DR. VINO | TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2009 Nicolas Joly on biodynamics, truth, song, and Mr. Big Muscle
While gesticulating fervently, Nicolas Joly addressed a packed room today at the Return to Terroir event in New York City today. What follows are some excerpts from his talk. But while he was talking, I was typing his words as he said them. So without further ado, take it away Monsieur Joly: What is an appellation controllée? Sounds! No subtlety! MORE >> -
DR. VINO | TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2009  Gonon vs. Leeuwin: a Syrah - Shiraz shootout
Okay, there was no shootout. Sort of a duel, but without the guns, wounds or Aaron Burr. In honor of Australia Day last week, and because I think syrah is most seasonally apt in the winter, I tried a Northern Rhone syrah against an Aussie shiraz. Against it, I poured a Saint-Joseph ‘06 from the small producer Pierre Gonon ( find this wine ). MORE >> -
WHY WINE BLOG | WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 2009  WHY WINE: WINE FACTS; Did you know? part 2
When I decided to get involved in some hobby or task that might add to my retirement income, in the near future, I decided on a website and some blogs so that I can share some knowledge on a given topic. My choice was to start a site and a blog on Wine. Not being a connoisseur, just an everyday wine lover, I knew it would involve a lot of reasearch. MORE >> -
