Book The Culture of the Grape  and Wine Making  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Culture of the Grape and Wine Making Classic Reprint written by Robert Buchanan and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Culture of the Grape, and Wine-Making Three editions of this little treatise, within a year, being required to supply the demand for it, would seem to indicate that the public interest in Grape Culture is on the increase. The author therefore deems it his duty to give the result of his own experience, and that of his fellow-members of the "Wine-growers' Association," in vineyard culture during the past year. It was found that the severe frosts of January and February, 1852 - 8 to 12 below zero - killed many of the grape buds in warm exposed situations, and several vineyards in Kentucky, a few miles south of this city, scarcely produced any fruit. The hard frosts of the 18th and 19th of March did not injure the grape buds, although many apples, such as the yellow Belleflower, were killed in the opening bud; all the peaches, many of the pears, and most of the cherries were destroyed. The frosts of the middle of April and second week in May injured the young shoots of the vine, especially in low situations or near moisture, and in the rows near grass but with all these visitations from frosts, the grape crop was a very promising one until attacked by the rot, the second week in July, and subsequently the first week in August - the latter but slight. This disease appeared to affect those vineyards most, that were in low situations, or not fully exposed to a free circulation of air, either from close planting or otherwise. High manuring, deep hoeing or plowing, and a want of summer pruning at the right time, it was thought, increased the liability to rot. This disease, or something like it, prevailed in many parts of Europe, last year, where it had scarcely been known before, and in the island of Madeira caused an almost entire failure of the grape crop. In this vicinity it cut off about half of the average crop, reducing the product of the whole county to about one hundred gallons per acre. Some made more, but many less than that average.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Viniculture of Claret: A Treatise on the Making, Maturing, and Keeping of Claret Wines The makers of wine are numerous enough, but few make it well. Yet to make wine well, is not a matter so difficult as to exceed the com prehension of ordinary understandings. Beyond all doubt, there exist in Portugal all the requisite conditions for the producing of numerous distinct, and very various kinds of wines, the major part of which are capable of acquiring excellent qualities, and of constituting a most important branch of commerce, and a great increase of public wealth. But it is also certain that beyond the generous wines of the Douro and Madeira, those of the Bairrada and some of the Estremadura, the rest have but a very poor show for exportation; while yet they might and ought to hold a preponderance in foreign markets, seeing that the principal wine using countries demand at the present day, principally genuine wines, moderately alcoholic, nourishing, and fit for ordinary drinking.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wine-Making in Hot Climates: Department of Agriculture; Viticultural Station, Rutherglen, Victoria In presenting this translation of L'Industrie Vinicole Meridionale by Professor L. Roos, to Australian winemakers, the sole aim of the translators has been to render a thoroughly modern work on wine-making available, of a type of which the necessity has been obvious, and frequently commented on for some years. The selection of the present work for translation was guided principally by the fact that the climate, and conditions of wine-making, in the South of France, for which the book was expressly written, are practically identical with those of Australia. The new methods and innovations in vinification adopted there (as also in California) should be applied here without hesitation, if we are to keep abreast of recent advances, or rather, of our competitors in the export wine trade with Great Britain, on which the future expansion and success of our viticultural industry largely depends.

Download or read book The Wild Vine written by Todd Kliman and published by Crown. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rich romp through untold American history featuring fabulous characters, The Wild Vine is the tale of a little-known American grape that rocked the fine-wine world of the nineteenth century and is poised to do so again today. Author Todd Kliman sets out on an epic quest to unravel the mystery behind Norton, a grape used to make a Missouri wine that claimed a prestigious gold medal at an international exhibition in Vienna in 1873. At a time when the vineyards of France were being ravaged by phylloxera, this grape seemed to promise a bright future for a truly American brand of wine-making, earthy and wild. And then Norton all but vanished. What happened? The narrative begins more than a hundred years before California wines were thought to have put America on the map as a wine-making nation and weaves together the lives of a fascinating cast of renegades. We encounter the suicidal Dr. Daniel Norton, tinkering in his experimental garden in 1820s Richmond, Virginia. Half on purpose and half by chance, he creates a hybrid grape that can withstand the harsh New World climate and produce good, drinkable wine, thus succeeding where so many others had failed so fantastically before, from the Jamestown colonists to Thomas Jefferson himself. Thanks to an influential Long Island, New York, seed catalog, the grape moves west, where it is picked up in Missouri by German immigrants who craft the historic 1873 bottling. Prohibition sees these vineyards burned to the ground by government order, but bootleggers keep the grape alive in hidden backwoods plots. Generations later, retired Air Force pilot Dennis Horton, who grew up playing in the abandoned wine caves of the very winery that produced the 1873 Norton, brings cuttings of the grape back home to Virginia. Here, dot-com-millionaire-turned-vintner Jenni McCloud, on an improbable journey of her own, becomes Norton’s ultimate champion, deciding, against all odds, to stake her entire reputation on the outsider grape. Brilliant and provocative, The Wild Vine shares with readers a great American secret, resuscitating the Norton grape and its elusive, inky drink and forever changing the way we look at wine, America, and long-cherished notions of identity and reinvention.

Book Wines of Eastern North America

Download or read book Wines of Eastern North America written by Hudson Cattell and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-24 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975 there were 125 wineries in eastern North America. By 2013 there were more than 2,400. How and why the eastern United States and Canada became a major wine region of the world is the subject of this history. Unlike winemakers in California with its Mediterranean climate, the pioneers who founded the industry after Prohibition—1933 in the United States and 1927 in Ontario—had to overcome natural obstacles such as subzero cold in winter and high humidity in the summer that favored diseases devastating to grapevines. Enologists and viticulturists at Eastern research stations began to find grapevine varieties that could survive in the East and make world-class wines. These pioneers were followed by an increasing number of dedicated growers and winemakers who fought in each of their states to get laws dating back to Prohibition changed so that an industry could begin. Hudson Cattell, a leading authority on the wines of the East, in this book presents a comprehensive history of the growth of the industry from Prohibition to today. He draws on extensive archival research and his more than thirty-five years as a wine journalist specializing in the grape and wine industry of the wines of eastern North America. The second section of the book adds detail to the history in the form of multiple appendixes that can be referred to time and again. Included here is information on the origin of grapes used for wine in the East, the crosses used in developing the French hybrids and other varieties, how the grapes were named, and the types of wines made in the East and when. Cattell also provides a state-by-state history of the earliest wineries that led the way.
