What is currently referred to as “conventional agriculture” (i.e., relying on the use of chemical inputs and genetically modified seeds) didn’t even exist back then. Today’s “conventional agriculture” was largely born after World War II, and much of the original science behind it was developed […] - [Anne Bousquet: “La agricultura orgánica ha hecho a nuestras viñas más resilientes al cambio climático”](https://domainebousquet.com/25-anos-de-agricultura-organica-en-gualtallary/): La co-fundadora de Domaine Bousquet conversó con Los Andes acerca de los 25 años de producción orgánica, su elección por vinos de este estilo y la incertidumbre que puede generar la naturaleza.

Traditionally, last weekend’s “Glorious Twelfth” stirs those fuller reds out of hibernation to put in a shift accompanying the harvest from the game shooting season. Need that be the end of those “lighter summer reds” though? Certainly not! There are good reasons why lighter reds can be sound year-round choices. Lower alcohol levels can often make lighter wines good choices for social gatherings and for health reasons. Equally, it is serious deprivation to deny ourselves access to a range of tasty grape varieties – like young barbera – for up to nine months. Anyway, wines like […] - [5 Argentine wines to pair with an asado’s wood-fired grilled meats](https://domainebousquet.com/en/5-argentine-wines-to-pair-with-an-asados-wood-fired-grilled-meats/): FROM LEFT: Domaine Bousquet Virgen Vineyards Natural Cabernet Sauvignon 2021; Susana Balbo, Crios Rosé of Malbec 2022; Casa Natal Malbec Reserva 2018; Catena Paraje Altamira Malbec 2020; Zuccardi Q Cabernet Franc 2021.

Sulfites are necessary additives used in wine to prevent bacterial growth. However, just a tiny amount should be present in all wines, but most winemakers add some extra during production to avoid bacterial spoilage.

During the week-long festivity, observant families avoid leavened foods, like bread and cake, and eat meals that are limited to ingredients designated kosher for Passover. But another big part of the Passover celebration is wine. Wine plays a central role in the two ceremonial dinners that kick off Passover, known as seders. During each seder, which involves a ritual retelling of the Israelites’ escape from Egypt, there are designated points in which participants are instructed to drink. In all, four glasses of wine are meant to be consumed.

With a deep, inky-red color and intense, complex flavor — particularly the distinct taste of plum — Malbec often has notes of blackberry, pepper, tobacco and leather.

Just south, in Bordeaux, Cabernet Franc blends in with a team usually led by Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon. The rest of the world generally followed Bordeaux’s path by growing Cabernet Franc to create a blend with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. While these Bordeaux style blends are certainly delicious, it’s a worthwhile endeavor to enjoy elegant, herbal Cabernet Franc on its own merits.

Though there’s no legal definition, it usually means the vines are older than 25 years, but preferably over 50 or even 100. These wines are rarer because the older a vine gets, the less fruit it produces. Farmers often rip up their older vines to plant new, young ones, which will produce more grapes, leading to more wine and more income. But the fact the term is  highlighted in marketing means that, despite the reduced output, the wine is felt […] - [Comforting reds to hunker down with through winter](https://domainebousquet.com/en/comforting-reds-to-hunker-down-with-through-winter/): We all need a reason to be cheerful right now, and my coping strategy, along with warm knitwear and cheese on toast, involves a nice glass of the right red.
