So happy to have you on board!

Nice episode, looking forward to your new winery visit

Man you a real one, Vince! So cool 😎 Keep up the amazing work 👌🏻🍷

I tried a Lambrusco called Under the Tuscan Sun from NC which is the smoothest red wine I have ever tried

Thank you Vino for posting this video. I love it, entertaining and insightful, wonderful. Happy travels Vino. Be safe, healthy and happy. God bless you. Be well.

Fun as always. There are a couple of producers in the Los Olivos area producing single varietals Petit Verdot.

Vince really enjoyed this episode. You talked about doing an episode on hybrid grapes and off-the-wall locations. I have something for you to consider, an episode in MN. You would satisfy both goals in one episode. The University of MN is world-renowned for its cold climate grape breeding, and it would be fascinating to learn how they create these new grapes and how long it takes. Plus, MN has a young but growing wine industry which would also be interesting to investigate - in my opinion :). Love your show

Right down the road, literally a mile or less from Barboursville Vineyard (love the Octagon), is Horton Vineyard. Dennis Horton is accredited for bringing the Norton grape back to Virginia in 1992 and producing the first commercial wine since prohibition. They also do my favorite Viognier!! Great place to visit.

That was a lot of fun to watch! Maybe a video going through your personal wine collection sometime and some of your favorite bottles you're holding on to would be fun. Keep up the good work!

When you go to Texas, make sure to try some Tannat! It does very well in Texas climate. It pairs very well with Texas BBQ!

Vince, that was awesome! I thoroughly enjoyed the questions and your answers. I was super fun. We also LOVED your Virginia episode! We live in Northern Virginia and we have visited a large number of wineries around the state. You totally nailed it! All of your food and wine choices were perfect. Also, really happy to hear about Michigan and Texas down the road and looking forward to Chile. Thanks!

Hey Vince, massive fan here! Would be interested in doing a wine dinner/event here in London? i'm sure you have many followers here where we have more and more wine enthusiasts. Hope you could do English wines (particularly sparkling wines) and visit some of our amazing vineyards! And would be really cool to meet you if you ever have an event/show in London! It's so fun watching all your eps as it's so easy to understand (i love your NerdLab section!). Thank you for sharing us your knowledge, keep making wine videos, you and your team are awesome!

A question for next time: what do you think of blends that include 5+ types of grapes. Seems like they all couldn't be significantly contributing to the taste.

Sounds like south Africa could be a contender for your vacation, even though you don't mix work and play.

Avaline had a Grenache Blanc that was so good. I wish they would bring it back

about wine faults, in january i had a red wine (mulderbosch faithful hound red blend 2019) and it was SOOOOOOOO sour, it literally felt like i was eating a warhead or something and i feel like there was no way it could be intentional. i tried it again the next day in hopes exposure to air would soften it a bit but it was still there. none of the reviews i read brought this up, so i don't think it was the wine itself, but when i googled common wine faults i didn't think any of them could be causing this sourness. do you know of any faults that could cause this?

@visforvino

Жыл бұрын

Ahh, so that could be oxidative as well, which can lead to vinegar flavors. It also could be “volatile acidity”. That is very common these days in poorly produced natural wines. But that’s something that affects every bottle, not just one, so it’s weird no one else would mention it…
