…Daniel Sander's granddaughter Veronique Sanders functioning as General Manager, and Gabriel Vialard employed as technical manager.
Beyond tasting the wine at the chateau, I also tasted it blind during En Primeur with other wines from Graves and am pleased to say that it is among my highest scoring wines, with my notes referring to its mineral-driven palate, floral overatones, and super concentrated rich ripe fruit which will mature beautifully in time.

…and remind ourselves that we were tasting samples from barrel. Alexander Van Beek, General Manager at Ch. du Tertre and Ch. Giscours , told us that, whilst 2012 isn't an exceptional vintage, it has certainly produced good wines - the aid of technology, education and greater attention in the vineyard, as well as more focused selections on the sorting table, really means that disastrous vintages should be issues consigned to the past.

Terra D'Alter Assistant Winemaker Frederico Rosa Santos
"I remember you!" says Nuno Franco, General Manager of Terra d'Alter in the chilly air outside the Alentejo Wine Route office. It's a chilly night in Alentejo, and even though I've been here only six hours I'm charmed by the city of Evora which is surrounded by ancient walls. Dry leaves are falling onto the street, and with a few historic monuments illuminated, the ambiance is quite enchanting.

…Millbrook Vineyards, in Millbrook, New York. There I saw General Manager, David Bova and winemaker John Graziano. John was hard at work. He was driving a fork left, directing people around the crush pad, as the fruit sat silent in long rows of large crates, waiting for the process to get to them.
The harvest was on. He had chardonnay on the crush pad, in large pallet size containers filled with harvested grapes, from bright green or champagne amber, and lots of juice oozing out …

VIK is an ambitious project, and it is obvious that Alexander Vik is sparing no expense in pursuit of his goal to produce the " Premier Grand Cru" of South America. While I thought the 2010 VIK Red Wine was excellent, only time will tell if the winery can reach those lofty heights.

Temecula Valley, Southern California wine country, had a great 2012 grape harvest. The season started with a cool spring and early summer, giving grapes quality time to develop, though offset by concern for early morning condensation and mildew management. While this resulted in an extended growing season for the grapes, high heat in mid-August and early September led to quick white grape ripening and quick-paced …

Paul Bosc Sr. was born and married there, eventually working as General Manager of one of the country's largest and most successful wine cooperatives.
With the revolution which led to Algeria's independence in 1962, the Bosc family found itself evacuated …
