He fumed at the EUs stupidity for not allowing the Spanish wine industry to "adjust for global warming."

| ALICE FEIRING APRIL 18, 2008 Alice Feiring - In Vino Veritas Hank on April 19, 2008 01:06 AM Thanks very much for pointing out this article - which is in many ways more like an opinion piece.

Anthony Nicalo on April 22, 2008 03:10 AM Post a comment | WINE TASTING GUY MAY 5, 2008 They don't make 'em like they used to I just read a recent post by Eric Asimov of the New York Times on his blog The Pour. The post, titled "Does Your Wine Need Viagra" deals primarily with the issue of alternative sources used by wine producers for imparting the OAK flavors to wines (chips, powders & staves instead of barrels). My take on all of this falls somewhere in the middle. | WINE TASTING GUY MARCH 6, 2008 Wine expert - what are the qualifications?? I attended a wine event this evening.

He was happy to have me & informed me that he planned the event with some other people who are connected to Israeli wines. | WINE TASTING GUY JANUARY 1, 2008 Wine making: technical aspects - Do You Care? There are several thing that led to my career shift into the wine industry. But the bottom line is I really love EVERYTHING about it. The vineyards, the harvests, the hard work, the winemaking, the aging, all the technical aspects, etc. BUT, that is me. More on this topic in future blog posts, but I welcome any thoughts. Happy '08! | | | | | | | |
