October 30, 2010
Harvest is the progress in the northern hemisphere Wine Spectator and hearing about them harvest past and present, check from the world of wine. Excerpted some of us and this three-part series in the us the funniest and most amazing thing to respond to questions. In the second part, we asked.
Paso Robles Justin Smith, Saxum, California: harvest is disaster magnet. Was the first day of the harvest in the year 2000, picking up the Schiller bone lock blocks James Berry vineyards in. Help 3 year old son was cool mist morning. I is stirred my tractor to the hornet’s nest is must be, and all the land, or gone attack my son,. Place on the nest, to keep the details from either the picker come get attack within by foot of course. I grabbed my boy, I ran swatted inside them. Only show what the needle to minimize our faces and cold we had all rap, so was the fact that it was. How to harvest kick-off no fun!
During the harvest Bordeaux Diana Snowden Seysses, Snowden vineyards in California’s Napa Valley: my first French language barriers with particularly challenged harvest. When seeking to “string” is “g-string” is converted to for example, attaching a hose to the tank! not in requires passing a pair of wineries, underwear to attach seriously is the ladder is heavy, wet hose in your hands than overlooking the French men fully from laughing more embarrassing desire.
Christoph Baron, Cayuse wineries, WA Walla Walla Valley: I in Walla Walla so-called graveyard shift work had in 1993 Waterbrook Winery. Our press, and filled with some Chardonnay was something wrong. good press, tank was filled 12 t Chardonnay comes, push the 30 to 40 feet. This was three morning; to fruit 12 tons in less than 20 seconds, ground. Grinding pad and outside in the gravel. I called owner, he came and everything and shoveled we pushed all of us, and isolated juice or guess what. We were in that year’s best Chardonnay — lots of minerality! [laughter] gravel from — joke!
rollin bottom, Argyle Winery, Oregon’s Willamette Valley: Oregon two vintage is the same in the remote. Most of the worst tropical rain, vintage in almost all of us, and was 1995 to our entire vintage had collapsed during the 5 days. It was crazy. I still box tissue work, intern for me, is to send. ‘ 95, Concerning wine top 100 got our Chardonnay. ‘ 95 Riesling — phenomenal — ‘ like 95 Pinot and drinking, just getting started and only blood wine smell beautiful rose petals. Go figure!
Marc Perrin Chateau Beaucastel plan Fils, France Rhone Valley: In 2002, everything was perfect. Fully ripe Grenache becomes). sho-. I’ve ever seen in my life: it rained. Do not remember the exact number, but such and rain of the equivalent of 6 months day or was in something. So never really rushed, I saw. Therefore, grape water where it was. It is really bad it was. It is really our worst memory. In 2002, does not produce any Beaucastel. We will skip it.

Long drink moderately or links to live, but wine is? (about wine)
October 29, 2010
Numerous studies drink alcohol in moderation and long link between life discovered. Common interpretation is that behind the drink itself, providing a polyphenol health benefits found in the amount of alcohol balanced or red wine.
However, check whether the history of the new study, drinks and by people. Because the team of the University of Texas, past and current lifestyle behavior decision reason during much drinking later discovered that there is life, abstentions and heavy drinking than informative description helpful stand.
Research will be published in 2010 November issue of alcoholism: clinical & experimental, outpatient patient data 1, 142 looked at gender 682 from Dr. Charles Holahan Texas University Austin and colleagues lead researcher 55-65 years old, and causes of death and other data records after 20 years in. Compared with light drinkers, finally, moderate drinkers they found 70% and 23% had a higher mortality risk, respectively, with heavy drinking alcohol from the patient was twice than abstention estimated mortality risk.
Abstain from drinking earlier problem alcohol and poor health habits, admitted most of the subjects. Validity period of moderate drinking, they are less, use alcohol as a social lubricant and deal with agent. Also tend to exercise more, and had low rates of obesity.
Our findings consistent interpretation and explain the important part of survival among the elderly medium drink confounding factors associated with alcohol abstention is referred to as their text. “Alcohol consumption per day per one or two increase the risk of cognitive impairment of drinks and decline in the elderly. ?
However, or perhaps due to oxidation prevention research to find out who drink no wine polyphenols found in red wine compound, such as extra income. To provide the benefits of wine polyphenols, theoretical growth supplement industry led in retail stores in the form of resveratrol and other polyphenols tablets.
claim to support a little look at the chemical element found in polyphenol grapes when acting alone, such as the provision of resveratrol cardiovascular benefits, recent Dutch survey. “Contains polyphenols of grapes and wine, very expensive, but has the effect of these most alone of investigating” describes nutrition magazine August issue in studies Unilever research and development.
Research team examined the healthy men 35. We daily dose capsules ate a low fat diet, men, and includes some 800 mg of polyphenols. The other took placebo.
Looking for an indicator of life blood flow of mental health and overall team found that did not improve cardiovascular health, men’s antioxidant capsule or alternative medicine. Describe the impact give scientists polyphenol treatment was blood flow.
However, whether or not the findings to drink wine on the relationship between the doubt announced. Lead author Linda A. j. van Mierlo “Note that test only the effect of polyphenols of grapes, provided as a supplement” said we. “Wine is other substances such as alcohol.”
Than one powerful, is the sum of the components in the wine. However, further investigation is answer wine and lifestyle needs.
