We have 5, count them, FIVE MUST-READS this week! 2021 is starting nicely 🙂
Jeff Cope profiles Spenser Igo at McPherson and turns out… HE LOVES Albariño just like we do!!! (TX Wine Lover)
Alex Russan has some beautiful points about yield vs. quality. “Nearly all of these studies – which Matthews interprets, contextualizes, and explains related plant functions – show that there is no direct connection between yield and quality.” (Wine-Searcher)
What if… elevation… plays a larger role in High Plains wine acidity/pH than we realize? (Wine Enthusiast)
A thoughtful and plainspoken article from Robert Camuto speaks volumes! “But I was a lousy grower, not attentive enough to do the right (organic) treatments and vine trimming when they needed to be done. My Syrah vineyard became a disease factory.” (Wine Spectator)
“De Cecco, if you’re reading this: Please contact me immediately, then also put 2.1 milligrams of iron into your freaking bucatini…” (Grub Street)
