Vine Wine Tasting reborn

Spring returns, the equinox is past, then resumed the vine life, to begin a new growth cycle.
The first leaves have appeared in the valley of the Marne, signing the beginning of the season.
For wine geeks, we are between stages D and E of the phenological stages of the Vine by Baggiolini, is the stage of "spreading leaves" ... (I learned things, eh ...)
Small buds in the middle are the future clusters of Pinot Meunier ...

WOW WOW



What may convene the Roussillon and Burgundy? Champagne and Barolo? the Veltliners the Wachau Gruner and Mourvèdres Ibiza? Wines of South Africa and the Proseco Veneto?

Their common points: the producers who share the desire to do things differently, and offer a tasting event that is primarily a time of partying and dating! In some manner: presenting things in new ways, to be original.
Hence the name of the event, the Original Worldwide Winemakers (part may also mean "Wines of the World").

The organization of the event was pretty funny because we did everything at a distance: a bar in Dusseldorf, a ( excellent) designer in South Africa, the organizers in Ibiza and Paris. Then suddenly, a few improvisations (a DJ whose plane is caught in storms, samples that fail, wine hidden webs purchased in the afternoon, etc. ...), but in the overall everything went for the better, and our 150 guests were apparently he had a great time.


150 guests in full tasting

In Ibiza, the wine is also at the party

In early February, any excuse is good to go treat yourself to a taste of spring. So how
refuse to go to sneak preview a new area on the island of Ibiza.

Many are surprised that we make wine on the island's reputation festive. But we must go and visit, to realize how the vine is a plant basically Mediterranean!

Here, "organic wine" is redundant. And if farmers do not use local treatments, it is neither by ideology nor by the desire to "Bio-marketing" is simply that the vine does not need them: Left to their Similarly, beautiful goblets Mourvèdre are "free-for-feet" and are unaware of any concerns such as the continental Mildioux, powdery mildew, Phylloxera or, absent from the island.

Mourvèdre was brought up on the island by the Phoenicians, there are more than 2000 years it has had time to take its brands, and adapt to the hot summers. "Here, every year 2003" I confirm it does.

At the time of Phylloxera in Europe, the island has been put to use to provide Spain with a table wine. She was heavily planted with vines. The many abandoned terraces are still there to testify. However, no tradition of quality wines has remained. The baskets of mass tourism - and the easy money that follows - are diverted from local farmers working the vines, and only a few plots reserved for domestic consumption were maintained.

is realizing the incredible potential of these old plots and Laurent Arnaud, two young neo-French winemakers have decided to create a new winery on the island.
To reinforce their choice, they brought in Montpellier a renowned expert in viticulture. By examining the vines and planting broad square, low densities (less than 3000 feet per hectare), the eminent professor was adamant: Mourvèdre is here in paradise, and the ancients knew perfectly what they were doing adopting this method of planting: it corresponds perfectly to the climate and soil.

Arnaud Laurent and have a very clear vision of the wine they seeking: a great wine, but without any concession with respect to the current canons of over-ripeness and concentration. Their motto: elegant fruit, good acidity, silky tannins, oaky imperceptible.

To obtain this result, the vines are not cut too short, and leaf removal have been abandoned to allow the fruit welcome shade in summer.

plots are the most consistently quality vineyards in France of the foot (not grafted), planted in the sand, near the bay of San Antonio. The grapes are harvested
earlier, 13.5 °, and sorting "maniac" is applied: only the grapes 'fresh' are kept, and the berries are wilted or set Passerillée sides (she used to do the "Dulce", an amazing wine of course soft).

To find complementary grapes, Lawrence crosses the island in winter, in search of "indigenous" Carving. Impromptu meetings are often successful, and alumni are excited to share their wine grapes cons who change their cheap wine in the developed
barn.

A wine tasting of 2007 and 2008 Totem Wines, one must recognize that the quality objective is achieved: a classy red with an unusual freshness in these latitudes, especially with the grape variety Mourvedre. The aromas take us on fresh red fruits. On the palate, the alcohol is imperceptible, and tannins are present without being massive. A very fine balance that makes us think of the most elegant of vintages cold Grenache Rhone than imposing mourvèdres English ...

Rosé, meanwhile, is winy, balanced, and more typically Mediterranean. Designed for customers "straw" of bars and restaurants, the will focus both on the innovative design of the bottle on wine quality.
production, confidential, should arrive in 2009 on selected tables of Paris.
