It is said that if Bordeaux is your wife, then Burgundy is your mistress... so what gives these distinguished wines completely such different characteristics?
The Noble Vines Know your Noble Grapes course explains these mysteries. Let’s look at Bordeaux for example. This wines is traditionally made from a blend of three grape varieties; Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, each of which bring their own unique properties to the wine. Cabernet Sauvignon is robust, powerful and full of blackcurranty flavours, whilst Merlot is a little lighter and full of juicy plums. Put these grapes with a touch of violet Cabernet Franc and you have a wine to remember! Or even to marry...
Burgundy by contrast is made from fussy Pinot Noir. Ooh, can’t be too warm or too cold, only likes certain soils and climates, but when you get it right you have a sensual, red-fruit scented wine to really fall in love with.
Wine making is a true art form, so there is much to be gained from a deeper look into grapes and the wines they make. The more you learn, the more pleasure you can derive from that really special glass ...
... of wine to mark a really special occasion.
W. B. Yeats says it all:
A Drinking Song
Wine comes in at the mouth
And love comes in at the eye;
That’s all we know for truth
Before we grow old and die.
I lift the glass to my mouth,
I look at you, and I sigh.
