A trip to the Mosel (II) – Prädikat wines

Posted on October 17, 2019October 17, 2019 by Peter Kupers Posted in Germany, Mosel, Spotlight, Uncategorized Tagged German Wine, Germany, Mosel, Sweet Wine, White Wine, WineLeave a Comment on A trip to the Mosel (II) – Prädikat wines

Whereas I would consider 2018 to be a great year for the dry wines, I am a bit more doubtful for the Prädikat wines, especially when it comes to Kabinett. The very essence of quintessential Mosel Kabinett is a lovely light fruitiness on a backbone of minerality, something that was […]

There is no greater event to attend in September than the auction days in the Mosel valley. I know it is a bit of a bold claim, but two days of tasting the very finest wines that are produced in the valley, followed by an evening where winemakers share some […]

Dining in Latvia: Riga

Posted on July 9, 2019July 9, 2019 by Peter Kupers Posted in Drink & Dine Tagged Austrian Wine, Burgundy, Chablis, Foodie, Latvia, Mosel, Riga, Sauternes, South African wine, WineLeave a Comment on Dining in Latvia: Riga

Riga is a fantastic city. Sure, it does not have the fairy tale views that you get in Tallinn, nor the grandeur of Helsinki. There is however an edginess to it, a carefreeness that also defines Brussels or Berlin, cities that do not concern themselves with just being pretty or […]

Dining in Estonia: Tartu

Posted on July 4, 2019July 4, 2019 by Peter Kupers Posted in Drink & Dine Tagged Austrian Wine, Baltics, Bordeaux, Estonia, Foodie, Italian wine, South African wine, Tartu, WineLeave a Comment on Dining in Estonia: Tartu

Tartu is the second city of Estonia, which make it sound a lot bigger than it actually is. It is lovely for an afternoon stroll though, and when you also pay a visit to the astonishing Estonian National Museum, wonderfully integrated in an old and abandoned Raadi Airfield, two days […]

Cos, Pithos Rosso 2009
Summer is over judging from the weather, so our extended focus on Riesling comes to a momentary end. Rieslingfans should not fear, as it is a love I will not be able to shut up about, but for the Wine of the Week I will venture into new territories for

Week 26 – Rebholz, Vom Buntsandstein 2013
I have talked about Riesling wines from the Pfalz before, mainly in the context of the Von Winning tasting I participated in a couple of months ago. Stephan Attmann, the winemaker at Von Winning is a proponent of creating opulent, majestic Riesling wines through the use of oak barrels, the Burgundian

An in depth look at Bandol (II)
Whole-bunch fermentation is a hot topic in winemaking these days. As anyone who walked passed a vine come harvest time has surely noticed, a grape bunch contains not only grapes but also stems. These stems only make up 3 to 4% of the total bunch, but they can have a

Rafael Palacios, Bolo 2014
When I started to discover Spanish wines, I focused on red under the assumption that white would not be worth the effort. After a couple of years I can admit that I was clearly in the wrong though! Most people probably associate Spanish whites with Rueda and even though this
