To explore and chronicle the grape, it's many stories and it's journey from dirt to glass.

New on Crushed Grape Chronicles today. Our 1st pi New on Crushed Grape Chronicles today. Our 1st piece on @krinklewood in New South Wales Hunter Valley. We spend a morning with Vigneron Rod Windrim. He explained the sparkling discovalls that cap the vineyard rows, shared with us the history of the vineyard and told us how they got started with Biodynamics. @krinklewood @huntervalley @visitnsw @destination_nsw @winecomaust @zephyr_wine #biodynamics #Australianwine #RodWindrim #wine #youcansipwithus
On Crushed Grape Chroncile now. Valpolicella is m On Crushed Grape Chroncile now. Valpolicella is more than Amarone. Our exploration of Valpolicella Superiore and Valpolicella Ripasso and some pairings! The Ripasso came from Acinum and the Superiore from Cecilia Beretta. With the Ripasso we did a Sicilian pasta with roasted Cauliflower and orange, with the Superiore, gnocchi, salad and flatbread pizza. Where are you traveling in a bottle to? @acinumwine @valpolicellawines #winelover #wineandfoodpairing #Travelinabottle #Italianwine #corvina #corvinone #rondinella #molinara #ValpolicellaSuperioreDOC #valpolicellaripasso #youcansipwithus
Can you believe we didn't finish this last night? Can you believe we didn't finish this last night? Maybe had something to do with my 4 am Italian wine seminar! Luckily it allowed me to pair this lovely sparkling wine with turkey lettuce wraps with a slaw! Yum! Here's hoping you are all safe and happy. These are things we cannot take for granted. #youcansipwithus #morebubbles #winestagram #relaxingthroughfrustration
Bubbles to brighten my day, as we caught bits of A Bubbles to brighten my day, as we caught bits of Arlington on the news. I waved to Mom and Dad! Happy Memorial Day and National Wine Day! Here's a toast to all those who put themselves on the line for the rest of us.
It's Memorial Day a day we honor those who lost th It's Memorial Day a day we honor those who lost their lives while serving out country. It's also National Wine Day here in the US. So I recommend a toast to those who served. These beautiful bottles have graced my glass recently, but I don't know what I'll be opening today. What are you opening and toasting with? #nationalwineday #youcansipwithus #whatareyousipping #memorialday #toasttothosewhogavetheirlives #winelovers @tertiniwines @cavasmestres @garagiste_lv @pardonetfils @tablascreek

A Tale of Two Chardonnays. Today my friends, is C A Tale of Two Chardonnays. Today my friends, is Chardonnay Day! We celebrate with a piece on two stunning Chardonnays from Washington. The grapes for these wines are grown in Vineyards that look across the Yakima Valley at each other. We spent time in each of these Vineyards with the winemakers last July. The top photo is from Roskamp Vineyard in the Snipes Mountain AVA, where we met Co Dinn of Co Dinn Cellars. The photo is the view North to the Rattlesnakes Hill AVA. The bottom photo is the DuBrul Vineyard in the Rattlesnake Hills AVA, where we met with Kerry Shiels of Côte Bonneville. The photo is looking out to Snipes Mountain. We share our visit and discuss the differences in these wines! How are you celebrating Chardonnay Day? @codinncellars @cotebonneville @wineyakimavalley @wa_state_wine #SnipesMountainAVA #RattlesnakeHillsAVA #yakimaValley #chardonnay #chardonnayday #youcansipwithus #wine #winestagram
For lunch today a little gnocchi, a little salad, For lunch today a little gnocchi, a little salad, a little pizza with a Valpolicella Superiore from Cecilia Beretta. This is a Valpolicella wine with Corcina, Corcinone and Rondinella. It is not Amarone or Ripasso or Recioto. Just regular wine. It is bright with good acid and great with food! Watch for a piece coming out soon in this region! #Valpolicella #Corvina #Corvinone #Rondinella @valpolicellawines #ValpolicellaSuperioreDOC #youcansipwithus #italianwines #winestgram #wine #travelinabottle
