SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines from Cool Climate Grapes
DESCRIPTION:Many grapes are what we call “cool climate grapes.” Think Riesling\, Pinot Noir\, Chardonnay\, Sauvignon Blanc or Rkatsiteli. Also consider a number of cooler climate hybrid grapes like Seyval Blanc\, Vidal Blanc\, and Marquette. Such grapes reflect their true typicity when grown in cooler growing regions. These grapes can also grow in warmer regions; but\, the desired flavor profile will be considerably different\, and that is not a bad thing. It just yields a different outcome. \nOur next installment of Wine Wednesday on February 2nd at 7:00 pm Eastern Time features wines made from the grapes we know as “cool climate grapes.” The cold\, hard truth is that cool and cold areas are best suited for white wine production because white grapes generally ripen earlier and they are more forgiving\, flexible and adaptable in the hands of a talented winemaker to make a good wine over a wider range of maturity than would red grapes grown in the same cool or cold area. With new viticulture technology in the form of cold-hardy and disease-resistant hybrid grape varieties\, the possibility of growing fine wines has expanded into cool and cold areas that were previously thought to be inaccessible to wine production. \nSo\, pick up a bottle of your favorite cooler or even colder climate wine made from cool climate grapes and join us for Wine Wednesday on February 2nd at 7:00 pm Eastern Time and share your thoughts about your wine with us! And\, as usual\, take photos of your bottle’s front and back labels and email them to WineCat@pa.net by 11 PM Tuesday for inclusion in our weekly PowerPoint presentation. \nNo reservations needed – just join us close to 7 PM Wednesday Eastern/New York time via the Zoom link below.   We look forward to seeing you then! \n  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/89067997194?pwd=Wm53T21KTE0wNDh2Ymo4TUh2dWtIZz09 \nMeeting ID: 890 6799 7194 \nPasscode: 229114 \nOne tap mobile \n+13017158592\,\,89067997194#\,\,\,\,*229114# US (Washington DC) \n+13126266799\,\,89067997194#\,\,\,\,*229114# US (Chicago) \nDial by your location \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver) \nMeeting ID: 890 6799 7194 \nPasscode: 229114 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kYV7STwlM

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines from Indigenous Grapes
DESCRIPTION:Our next Wine Wednesday episode on February 9th at 7:00 pm Eastern/New York time is “Wines from Indigenous Grapes.” This topic almost screams “Italy!” The Italian peninsula is home to nearly 25% of the world’s 1\,200+ recognized wine grape varieties. But\, many other wine regions and countries can also claim a number of wine grapes as indigenous to their wine growing regions. Determining a grape variety’s place of origin has become far easier in light of the modern-day work of geneticists in the field of ampelography\, which is the science concerned with the identification and classification of grapevines. So\, do your research\, because a Tanat from Uruguay is not an example of an indigenous grape. Neither is Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley an example of an indigenous grape. Nor is Sauvignon Blanc indigenous to New Zealand. This is an exercise in finding the roots of the varietal that you are drinking! \nPlease join us this week for Wine Wednesday on February 9th at 7:00 pm Eastern/New York time when we explore the genealogy\, so to speak\, of your favorite varietal! And\, as we do every week\, send photos of the front and back of your wine bottle labels to WineCat@pa.net by 11 pm Tuesday for inclusion in this week’s PowerPoint slide show\, which is when you will have your 3 minutes of fame as you feature your chosen indigenous varietal! We look forward to seeing you then! \nNo reservation needed – simply join us via the Zoom link below close to 7pm Wednesday evening. \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88095815870?pwd=dTdQT0kwQWovcWp6Rjc4RjhSWXdOZz09 \n Meeting ID: 880 9581 5870\nPasscode: 551519\nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,88095815870#\,\,\,\,*551519# US (Chicago)\n+16465588656\,\,88095815870#\,\,\,\,*551519# US (New York) \nDial by your location\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\nMeeting ID: 880 9581 5870\nPasscode: 551519\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/keisFJJuuB

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Piemonte\, Italy
DESCRIPTION:This week’s Wine Wednesday episode on February 16th at 7:00 p.m. Eastern focuses on one of my most favorite wine regions in the whole world\, i.e. that of Piemonte (Italy). This region is in the northwest of Italy and is bordered on the western side by a mountain range that separates Italy and France. It is also the homeland of my maternal ancestors\, many of whom were from Asti and the agrarian towns and villages to the southeast of Asti. When my grandpap told me that he grew up on a farm\, I asked him what they grew. His answer was\, “Grapes!” \nIt is difficult for me to pin down my favorite wines from Piemonte. Owing to the influence of the Romans\, roughly 25% of the world’s recognized wine grape varieties are indigenous to Italy. Thus\, no matter where you go in Italy\, you will find local wine grapes growing everywhere! This translates into endless wine varietals. Piemonte is no slouch when it comes to grape varieties and wine varietals. And\, there are almost as many white wines from which to choose as there are reds. \nSo\, spend some time\, do the research\, and you will be amazed at the wines Piemonte has to offer! Then\, meet us on the Zoom link below on Wednesday\, February 16th at 7:00 p.m. Eastern time for Wine Wednesday! Arm yourself with a suitable bottle of wine from Piemonte and\, as always\, send photos of the front and back labels from your wine bottle to WineCat@pa.net by 11 p.m. Tuesday for inclusion in Wednesday night’s PowerPoint slide show. \nNo reservation needed – simply join us close to 7 p.m. Wednesday via the Zoom link below.   We look forward to seeing you then! \nClick on the Link below to Join the Wine Wednesday Zoom Meeting: \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/87198948005?pwd=VmNnUk5HOTgvQm4zR2RYc3BxdlFUQT09 \nMeeting ID: 871 9894 8005 \nPasscode: 423725 \nOne tap mobile \n+13126266799\,\,87198948005#\,\,\,\,*423725# US (Chicago) \n+16465588656\,\,87198948005#\,\,\,\,*423725# US (New York) \nDial by your location \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \nMeeting ID: 871 9894 8005 \nPasscode: 423725 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kx94siID \n  \n

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ The Veneto Region of Italy
DESCRIPTION:Our topic for Wine Wednesday on February 23rd at 7:00 pm Eastern time examines the wines of Veneto\, Italy. This region is in the northeastern corner of “the boot” that describes the peninsula that is Italy. It is generally a cooler climate for growing grapes. The Veneto region produces more whites than reds under the DOC designation and is notably home to the Prosecco and Soave wines. However\, continued recognition for other wines from the region\, such as Valpolicella\, Amarone\, Soave and Bardolino\, help keep Veneto in the spotlight. \nThe red wines of Veneto are also identified with several techniques which are used to increase body\, structure and intensity to various of the wines. Such processes as Ripasso and Appassimento yield stunning results that we will discuss this week. \nSo\, secure a bottle of wine from this region and join us for Wine Wednesday on February 23rd at 7:00 pm Eastern time to learn “the rest of the story.” And\, as always\, please take photos of the front and back labels of your bottle and email them to WineCat@pa.net by 11 p.m. Tuesday for inclusion in our PowerPoint slide presentation. We look forward to seeing you! \nNo reservations needed – simply send your label photos and join us via the Zoom link below close to 7 p.m. Eastern/New York time Wednesday. \n  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/82227400122?pwd=a0QyUHFVSkZMUWhkL2pJM0h5K0V5Zz09 \nMeeting ID: 822 2740 0122\nPasscode: 083578\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,82227400122#\,\,\,\,*083578# US (Washington DC)\n+13126266799\,\,82227400122#\,\,\,\,*083578# US (Chicago) \nDial by your location\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\nMeeting ID: 822 2740 0122\nPasscode: 083578\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kbiVFlUjxa
