The Bests of Red Wines Revealed!

February 18th, 2012  |  Published in Uncategorized

Article by George Hans

During the 1990s, a physician voiced on a national TV show that drinking red wine reduces heart disease. It made all the headlines. He cited the relatively lower levels of the disease in France despite their ever so famously high fat diets. Since that program, it seems that red wine health effects have been on the forefront of the wine consumer?s mind.

You don’t know what to get for your next dinner party and the perfect food to go with your chosen bottle? Then it is high time that you learn the best kinds of red wines that are readily made available on the market.

Basically, red wines are one classification of wines according to style. The other type of wine according to style is the white wine. Red wines are generally made from grapes. They are either made from one or more selection of European type of grapes known as pvitis vinifera.q Learn the art of Wine Tasting

In most cases, red wines are further classified into kinds of grape selections. For instance, there are red wines that use one variety of grapes as the main ingredient. In this case, the mixture becomes varietal, which means that a particular red wine was made from a single variety of grapes.

Many studies suggested that moderate amount of red wine (one to two glasses a day) lowers the risk of heart attack for middle aged people by 30 to 50 percent. It was also concluded that red wine may prevent additional heart attacks if you have already suffered from one.

Classifying red wines can be very complicated. However, for those who wish to get a first hand note on the best red wines that are available on the market today, here is a list that could help you choose the best red wine for your next dinner party:

1. George Dubroff Morgon

Made in the famous Beaujolais region of burgundy, this is the only pCru du Neaujolaisq that has been coined with the term pmorgonnerq to specify a certain style of wine. Young Morgon wines are soft, fruity, and easy to drink.

This kind of red wine will complement almost any dish.

2. Gran Tierra Red

This type of red wine is made in a fruity style that is easy on the tongue for any wine drinker. It is made from Tempranillo grape, the mystical grape responsible for Spainos great Rioja wines.

This type of red wine is perfect for steaks and any rice or casserole dish.

3. Blackstone Merlot

Merlot is an old-world grape grown in the Bordeaux region in France, where it has enjoyed popularity with most red wine drinkers. It can be drank young but develops even more flavor the longer it has aged. This Monterey wine embodies Merlot in its perfection j a well-structured smooth wine with plum and fruitcake flavors, touches of oak and firm tannins to produce a flavorful and balanced wine.

These are just a few of the best red wines ever created by the greatest wine makers. Keep in mind that the classiness and quality of red wines are fully dependent on the variety of grapes that were used. You can expect great wine products made from quality grapes.

Coronary artery disease is caused by a build up of cholesterol in the arteries that supply the blood to the heart. If the arteries get partially blocked the heart cannot get enough oxygen and the result is pain. Does red wine protect against heart disease?

Wine Cellars and Wine Coolers

February 17th, 2012  |  Published in Uncategorized

People often get confused about wine cellars and wine coolers. You might be doing and not even realizing that you are and also not be aware of the difference. Well, now be informed that the disparity between the wine cooler and the wine cellar is huge although to make sure, they’ve got something to do with storing wine. Since they are both used to store wine, people forget thet they’re two different things.

WIne cellars are like rooms where people keep their wines. Wine cellars are frequently in basements where wines are stored at the right temperatures. You can think of these wine cellars as being a kind of library that’s stuffed with wine rather than books; also a library that as a controlled temperature and beautifully made. Guests might be invited inside the wine cellar if the owner wants to discuss his wine collection. These wine cellars are popular with wine enthusiasts because they’ve got lots of room to build a great wine collection.

Next you will discover the wine coolers which can be used to store wine like wine cellars are.

Wine coolers are akin to miniature wine cellars. A wine cooler may fit into a wine cellar since they are small. If you have a wine collection and yet you do not have a wine cellar, then obtain a wine cooler. By keeping the wines at the proper temperature, it is possible to enjoy them more. Depending on how big your wine cooler is, you might even put it on top of your counter. There is one trusted brand that creates good wine cellars that are very affordable and great at storing wines. You will find that there are many makers of wine coolers each having a marketing strategy all their own. You may be easily swayed but consider how your wines will wind up if you choose a product that makes promises it has no intentions of delivering?

February 12th, 2012  |  Published in Uncategorized


Healdsburg, CA (PRWEB) February 09, 2012

2011 was a banner year for Diane Wilson, co-owner with husband Ken Wilson, of Soda Rock Winery, known as one of Sonoma?s best wineries. Her wines at Soda Rock Winery and Wilson Winery were recognized in various competitions and received high marks from Wine Spectator.

Winning the Sweepstakes for Best Red Wine (the third time in seven years!) at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair (October 2011) with her outstanding Zinfandel, she moved on into November by receiving 91 points on three wines in the Wine Spectator, again on her fantastic Dry Creek Valley Zinfandels. And if these accolades weren?t enough, Diane won an unprecedented quantity of three Best of Class awards and was presented with the prestigious honors of ?Best of Show? and ?Best Wine by a Women Winemaker? in December?s International Women?s Winemaking Competition. The turn of the New Year brought twenty-one overall medals from the 2012 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition, including nine gold or double gold awards and featuring some new winners in the Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon categories and solidifying the fact that this woman is an exceptional wine maker.

A rising star in Sonoma County winemaking since the moment that her initial release in 1994 garnered a Best of Class, Diane Wilson has been the winemaker to watch. With an outstanding track record of awards over the years, and recognized as one of the most talented winemakers in California, this is Diane?s time to shine.

With vineyards named after family members, each harvest brings something new for the small-lot, single-vineyard designate winemaker.

Diane?s innate talent and sense of smell have contributed to the making of her award-winning wines and have also staved off some disasters! This year, she averted a house fire due to her amazing sense of smell.

The New Wine Label Phenomenon

February 9th, 2012  |  Published in Uncategorized

Article by Peter Renton

Copyright (c) 2006 Peter Renton

It comes as no news to anyone that the American people love their animals. What did come as a surprise to me is that we also love animals on our wine labels. Yes, a study released earlier this year by ACNielsen confirms that wine labels with animal images are becoming increasingly popular in this country.

I felt compelled to do my own research on this topic so one evening I stopped by my local liquor store to check out the wine selection. Sure enough I was greeted with a veritable zoo of animals on labels. There were Dancing Bulls, Leaping Horses, Black Swans, Little Penguins, Kangaroos, even a hippopotamus courtesy of Fat Bastard Wines (which is French would you believe). This very informal research confirmed that there seems to be a much larger selection of wines with animal labels than ever before.

Critter Labels Rule

In the wine industry these animal labels are affectionately known as “critter labels”, and the trend began back in 2001 with the introduction of the Yellow Tail brand of wines into this country from Australia. Pictured on the label is what looks like a kangaroo (but which is in fact supposed to be the yellow-footed rock wallaby). These wines had labels that looked striking, were priced very reasonably and they tasted great – so they became a runaway success. So much so that they spawned an entire new “category” of wine.

The ACNielsen study has some hard data confirming the popularity of this new wine category. In the past three years there have been 438 new Table Wine brands that have been successfully introduced in the American market (those wines that sold more than ,000 annually). Of these 438 new brands 77 of them featured an animal on their label, around 18 percent. Combined with existing “critter label” wines, sales reached 0 million in 2005 out of a total of just over billion, based on ACNielsen sales data from supermarket point of sale purchases.

“Critter-labeled wines are on the rise, quickly gaining share in the table wine category,” said Danny Brager, vice president of ACNielsen’s Beverage Alcohol team. “The sales generated by new brands featuring a critter outperform other new table wines by more than two to one.” That’s right, taken across the board new critter-labeled wines have proven in the marketplace to be more popular.

“While placing a critter on a label doesn’t guarantee success, it is important that wine makers realize that there is a segment of consumers who don’t want to have to take wine too seriously,” said Brager. “Not only are they willing to have fun with wine, they may just feel ‘good’ about an animal label presentation.” With hundreds of new wine brands being introduced each year, wine makers realize that they need to stand out from the crowd if they are to make an impression. The easiest and most cost effective way to stand out is with an attention grabbing label on your bottle. The wine industry has also realized that there is an increasingly large segment of consumers who are attracted by fun labels. They want to buy a non-pretentious wine and they don’t want to pay a fortune. These are the people who walk into a liquor store and supermarket and have no idea what they are going to buy – they decide by looking at the labels.

Chasing the Yellow Tail

The Yellow Tail wine phenomenon is the perfect example of this. From Casella Wines, a small family-owned winery in New South Wales, Australia, Yellow Tail went from zero to the number one imported wine in the US in just two years. The first year the Casella brothers expected to sell 25,000 cases of wine here, they ended up selling 200,000 cases. That was back in 2001. In 2005 they sold 8 million cases of wine. Yellow Tail Shiraz is now the #1 selling red wine in America (not just imports but ALL red wine). In the crowded and highly competitive US wine market with over 6,500 wine brands, Yellow Tail has become the #1 wine brand, and it took just five years.

Now, I realize that Yellow Tail’s success is not just because of their label. They have a great product that is reasonably priced – the Shiraz is just .99 – and they have a very loyal base of repeat customers. But could they have become #1 without their unique label? I don’t think so. One of the biggest barriers they faced was getting people to try the wine in the first place. With what looks like a brightly colored kangaroo on the label on a black background, it is a visually striking label. It was able to break through the clutter at the retail store with this label.

Perhaps the biggest indication of the success of Yellow Tail is the number of copycats it has spawned. Penfolds, Australia’s leading winery, was obviously disappointed in missing out on this opportunity, so they responded with the launch of the Little Penguin brand of wines. There is now a deluge of animal themed wines, so much so that ACNielsen is tracking their sales now. Despite all this new competition Yellow Tail remains the most successful wine brand in terms of total sales.

Labels are a Powerful Tool

While the wine business is somewhat unique there are lessons here that can be applied to any industry. One lesson is that with a high impact label you can make inroads even in a conservative and image conscious industry such as the wine industry. Your label should be working hard for your product. It should be informational, be a sales and marketing piece, carry any necessary regulatory information, and at the same time be eye catching. If you are selling your products at a retail store, then your label needs to perform well in all these areas for your product to compete with other more established brands.

Your label is your sales tool. The success of Yellow Tail wines demonstrates that in any competitive industry a good label can help bring success. Of course, it doesn’t have to feature a critter, but a visually appealing and eye catching label will always help sales.

Tiare Technology Installs Wireless WineList? System at Bistrot Lepic Restaurant

January 30th, 2012  |  Published in Uncategorized


Cherry Hill, New Jersey (PRWEB) December 21, 2011

Tiare Technology announced today that it has deployed its patented Wireless WineList? solution at Bistrot Lepic & Wine Bar in Washington, DC, one of the city?s top French restaurants and the first in the city to offer their guests Tiare?s iPad-based menu ordering solution for wine and cocktails.

The Wireless WineList application allows restaurant guests to easily view and order wines using a wireless Apple iPad tablet or other wireless device and Tiare?s proprietary software. Guests can use the tablets to peruse the wine list to discover the breadth of wines offered. They can also quickly sort the wines to display by region, varietal, price range or other categories, or click to search the database and pinpoint a specific selection.

The system displays extensive information about the restaurant?s wines, including tasting notes, vintage information, and background on the winery, the region or the grape varietals. Photos, wine labels, maps, videos and other information are also easily displayed.

Cyrille Brenac is at the helm of Bistrot Lepic?s wine program, featuring over 500 bottles in a custom-designed wine cellar. ?I strive to feature French wines not commonly available in the United States,? Brenac says. ?Tiare?s Wireless WineList system allows guests to easily review the wine list and learn about these wonderful wines. We are delighted to be the first restaurant in the city to feature this technology.?

Tiare?s Wireless WineList system is designed to meet the needs of both the wine expert and the wine novice. It offers powerful tools to allow oenophiles to easily sort, analyze and locate a particular selection, view a vertical collection or explore regional specialties. Casual users can learn about the restaurant?s offerings at their leisure, without the fear of intimidation.

The system is intended to complement, rather than replace, the personal attention of the sommelier or server. Guests can place selections onto the system?s Consideration List? for discussion with the restaurant?s staff. The system can also be configured to page the staff with the guest?s selection, or even place the order directly to the restaurant?s point of sale system.

?We selected Tiare for their unique ability to customize the system to reflect the restaurant?s aesthetic, as well as to tailor the way the wines could be categorized,? Brenac says. ?Other products just don?t have this flexibility.?

Brenac offers the Wireless WineList tablets to his guests in the main dining room as well as the upstairs wine bar. Ultimately, he would like to eliminate paper menus completely.

?Maintaining the list is now much more efficient because we can add or remove a wine, or change a vintage on a moment?s notice – and it is reflected immediately on the wine list,? says Brenac. Bistrot Lepic also features their expansive digestif offerings on the iPads.

?The Wireless WineList system is an exciting platform that allows restaurants to get the most from their wine program and increase wine sales,? says Jeff Krevitt, President of Tiare Technology. ?What Tiare offers is a comprehensive and customized business solution for the restaurant ? not just a do-it-yourself app.?

Tiare?s ordering solutions can be found across the United States and around the world. Those inside the Beltway can enjoy using the Tiare Wireless WineList at Bistrot Lepic, and if headed off to Iowa for the Caucuses, stop by the top restaurants in Des Moines, Centro and Django, to experience the Wireless WineList. Krevitt adds, ?No matter what your party affiliation, everyone can agree that the Tiare Wireless WineList is a winning solution.?
