SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines at\, or lower than\, 12.5% Alcohol-By-Volume
DESCRIPTION:Wines at 12.5% ABV or Less          by Marty Cook \nOur next Wine Wednesday episode\, which airs on Wednesday\, October 20th at 7:00 PM Eastern/New York Time\, will confront the topic of wines at 12.5% Alcohol by Volume (ABV) or Less. \nWhen I first began to explore wine in 1971\, wines rarely exceeded 12.5% ABV.  Yeast strains at that time only tolerated ABV’s of 13.6% at the top end before they naturally succumbed to the effects of alcohol\, whereupon they fell to the floor of the fermenter and subsequently died.  So\, sitting down with a friend over a bottle of wine in those days left both of you relatively sober.  That was before scientists developed yeast strains that could tolerate ABV’s north of 16%. \nSeveral decades ago\, New World wine producers began pushing the limits of high-alcohol wines\, which was easy to do in sun and heat-laden areas.  This resulted in higher sugar-per-berry content\, yielding bigger\, bolder fruit bombs of higher ABV and lower acidity. In recent years\, however\, a backlash among consumers arose that persuaded producers to back off of these techniques. \nThere are plenty of wines available today at 12.5% ABV or less\, albeit\, you may have to search a bit.  So\, the task for our next Wine Wednesday on October 20th at 7:00 PM Eastern/New York Time will be to secure a bottle of wine with an ABV of 12.5% or less that you would like to feature during Wine Wednesday.  And\, as usual\, please send photos of the front and back labels of your wine bottle to WineCat@pa.net by 11 PM Tuesday for inclusion in our weekly PowerPoint presentation. \nWe look forward to seeing you for Wine Wednesday on October 20th at 7:00 PM Eastern/New York Time for some fun with wine!  The Zoom link for this virtual event is shown below. \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/89425448612?pwd=SW41SHZ5aFpvNkhxTTFlQ0tCMUowUT09 \n Meeting ID: 894 2544 8612 \nPasscode: 525858 \nOne tap mobile \n+13126266799\,\,89425448612#\,\,\,\,*525858# US (Chicago) \n+16465588656\,\,89425448612#\,\,\,\,*525858# 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: 894 2544 8612 \nPasscode: 525858 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kDPrgzOc5 \n  \n  \n  \n
