Book excerpt: I remember my first wine-tasting experience. I had just newly turned 21, and I was on a trip with some classmates to a small town in Central Vermont. I thought that wine tasting was for older adults. There's no way that college kids would have fun tasting wine in a stuffy old winery. Boy, was I wrong! The first sip of wine, I tried to act cool. I thought that I could drink it down like you take a swig of Pepsi. Again - I was so wrong! I was handed at least six more glasses of wine throughout the course of an hour, and I ended up getting a little tipsy. I found a new world of wine tasting. It wasn't just the taste test that sold me on the idea of visiting wineries. Frequently, the wineries offered tours of their operations. I love the way the wooden barrels smell. I love the splash and bubbles of a freshly opened sweet white Moscato. I love the way the air just seems to be thick with vitality in the bottling room. I find the grounds of most wineries to be charming and bursting with the promise of their variety of fruit. Whether you have an interest in winemaking yourself, are a connoisseur of wine, or simply want to have something to do on your road trip around the country, wine tasting is an excellent option. The first half of this book is going to teach you everything you need to know about wine, winemaking, and wine tasting. You will learn everything you ever wanted to know about wine but were afraid to ask. You will learn about the history of winemaking and the legalities of wine in the US, including if you can transport wine across state lines. You will gain a better understanding of all things related to wine as I will answer some of the most frequently asked questions concerning wine as well as I will define the most used terms in the wine world. The second half of the book is going to be a comprehensive list of all the lesser-known wineries in the United States so you can plan your next wine tasting adventure. Did you know that every single state in the US has at least one winery? You can use this book to plan your next road trip to include a stop (or two) at some wonderful wineries. I have learned so much about wine in the last decade since my first introduction to a wine tasting. You could safely say that I am hooked on anything and everything about wine. I am a "wino" at heart; maybe you are, too. Or perhaps you know someone who would love this book as a gift. Be sure to check out a preview of the book before you click "Add to Cart." This 400+ page book is full of information all about wine and wineries in the United States. Cheers!

Download or read book The Okanagan Wine Tour Guide written by John Schreiner and published by TouchWood Editions. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive guide to Interior BC wineries, covering the Okanagan, Similkameen, Thompson and Kootenays. With updated maps and travel tips, it’s your ultimate glove-box guide, now in a newly expanded and updated edition. For nearly fifteen years Okanagan Wine Tour Guide has been the definitive companion for travelling the winding roads of BC’s Interior wine region. In this, the 6th edition, John Schreiner and his new co-author—wine writer, podcaster, and instructor Luke Whittall—chart the latest developments at the oldest wineries and the very first vintages from the newest startups in a region that stretches along Okanagan Lake, west to the Similkameen, north to the Thompson, and east to the Kootenays. This edition includes 240 wineries (that’s over 40 openings in five years!), revised and updated maps, contact information, tasting room information, and recommendations. From pioneers like Quail’s Gate on Mount Boucherie to the newest arrivals like Cliff & Gorge in Lillooet, these stories are as varied as the personalities of the wines themselves—a few vines planted as a retirement project, a few acres purchased on a whim, or a gala grand opening underpinned by years of planning and consultation. What emerges across the guide is the sense of community and the room for wildly different philosophies on everything from growing to fermenting to naming. Whether you’re paging through the aisles of the local liquor store, sorting your Viogniers from your Syrahs, or relishing a family vineyard’s journey from its Quonset-hut years to international acclaim, John Schreiner’s Okanagan Wine Tour is the ultimate guide to and celebration of Interior BC wine.

Download or read book The Dirty Guide to Wine Following Flavor from Ground to Glass written by Alice Feiring and published by The Countryman Press. This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover new favorites by tracing wine back to its roots Still drinking Cabernet after that one bottle you liked five years ago? It can be overwhelming if not intimidating to branch out from your go-to grape, but everyone wants their next wine to be new and exciting. How to choose the right one? Award-winning wine critic Alice Feiring presents an all-new way to look at the world of wine. While grape variety is important, a lot can be learned about wine by looking at the source: the ground in which it grows. A surprising amount of information about a wine’s flavor and composition can be gleaned from a region’s soil, and this guide makes it simple to find the wines you’ll love. Featuring a foreword by Master Sommelier Pascaline Lepeltier, who contributed her vast knowledge throughout the book, The Dirty Guide to Wine organizes wines not by grape, not by region, not by New or Old World, but by soil. If you enjoy a Chardonnay from Burgundy, you might find the same winning qualities in a deep, red Rioja. Feiring also provides a clarifying account of the traditions and techniques of wine-tasting, demystifying the practice and introducing a whole new way to enjoy wine to sommeliers and novice drinkers alike.
