  4. #Cabernet is the most popular red #wine in the #US Can it endure #climatechange?
    Rising temperatures are threatening the future of #NapaValley's prized #cabernetsauvignon, forcing #winemakers to adapt to increasingly severe #heatwaves. Some vineyards are experimenting with heat-tolerant #grape varieties to blend with cabernet, while others are investing in cooling technologies.npr.org/2024/09/09/nx-s1-50020

    "Grgich left Croatia in 1954 with a few U.S. dollars hidden in his shoe and a suitcase full of wine-making books. That suitcase, along with his trademark beret and a bottle of chardonnay, are now housed at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington."

  10. Italy has lost its cherished crown as the world's biggest wine producer.

    This year has been challenging for winemakers in Italy causing production to fall by 12% compared to 2022.

    Extreme weather conditions and fungal diseases have ravaged vineyards causing output to drop below 44 million hectolitres in 2023. Winemakers are expecting the smallest harvest in six years.

  15. (Today, Byfield is one of only a few #racialized #winemakers in #Canada — and the only #Black #Canadian with their own wine label.

    Byfield, 55, is the owner of #NyaraiCellars, a virtual wine label. The company does not have a building or vineyard of its own, but contracts grapes from growers in the Niagara region. The wine is made at a winery in Hamilton — West Avenue Cider House — where Nyarai Cellars has its own barrels and tanks.)

  16. Winemakers Bobby Huff and Jaam Moynihan have launched a new label, Joseph-Jibril, to make organic Pinot, Chardonnay, and more at affordable prices. I caught up with them at their shared facility in Healdsburg to chat about their vision, obstacles, and inspiration.

  18. @micchega Among the reasons #Chardonnay is so popular with #winemakers around the globe is that it's so flexible, making decent #wine in moderately warm to cool climates, and in a wide range of styles (and price points). It doesn't have to be Montrachet to be good.
    Try Mercurey “Les Ormeaux”, Château d’Etroyes, Bourgogne 2018 for it's energy (around $40). I'm enjoying chards from the Santa Cruz Mountains recently, by Ghostwriter or Arnot-Roberts.
    Pro-tip, though. Less expensive chardonnays are better with less #oak, which is likely to come from chips or staves or some other shortcut, rather than #barrel-aging, giving the #wine harsh and unbalanced flavors.
