Göran van den Brink — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 13:43:52 +0000

There is something very special about hearing Romana Echensperger talk about wine.

Continued renaissance for Moldovan wines, dinner with Moldova’s Wine Boss | Per on Forbes

Per Karlsson — Mon, 23 Sep 2024 09:49:25 +0000

Although wine has been made for thousands of years in eastern Europe, many of the countries can really be thought of as “New World” wine countries. During the Soviet repression, the focus was on producing large quantities of bulk wine. It is only after the disappearance of the Iron Curtain that the quality of the […]

Per Karlsson — Sat, 14 Sep 2024 15:57:54 +0000

Nestled in the centre of the Balkans is the country called North Macedonia. It is a mountainous place that reaches an impressive 2,752 metres (9,030 feet) at Mount Korab on the Albanian border.

Exciting Swedish wines (and food) at Spritmuseum’s restaurant in Stockholm | Per on Forbes

Per Karlsson — Fri, 19 Jul 2024 14:26:28 +0000

A lot has happened in Swedish vineyards in recent years. When we at BKWine organized a series of wine fairs in Paris for “Scandinavian wines” over a few years ago in the early 2000s, a handful of wine producers who made wine in Sweden participated. We weren’t overly impressed by most of the wines back […]

An introduction to Languedoc, a large, dynamic, and successful wine region | Britt on Forbes

Britt Karlsson — Wed, 17 Jul 2024 10:37:13 +0000

Languedoc in southern France has become a dynamic and exciting wine region. The region has an incredible variety of wines, including red, rosé, white, and sparkling. The warm climate produces wines with generous fruit but without excesses. A fresh acidity is often present. Languedoc brings us quality at every level, from unpretentious but well-made wines […]

Cahors, southern French malbec with an emphasis on elegance | Britt on Forbes

Britt Karlsson — Thu, 23 May 2024 09:59:04 +0000

In the large French wine region, which is somewhat vaguely called the Southwest (Sud-Ouest), a multitude of small wine appellations are included. Some fabulous wines are made here, many of them far too unknown. Cahors, however, is quite well known as it has a long history and has long been present in the export market. […]

Le Marche, unusual and exciting grapes and wines on the Adriatic coast | Per on Forbes

Per Karlsson — Wed, 08 May 2024 13:01:47 +0000

Le Marche on the Italian Adriatic coast does not have Ponte Vecchio, the Verona Arena or the Forum. But it does have spectacular Italian landscapes, beautiful beaches and, above all, fantastic food and wine. It has a great variety of wines, some of which are quite unique, and some very specific local gastronomic specialities. Let’s […]

Ahr´s hectares worth a fanfare – Weingut Paul Schumacher and friends

Sven-Olof Johansson — Tue, 07 May 2024 17:12:03 +0000

During one afternoon in July 2021, 132 people died from a downpour from hell that hit Ahr. In a few hours, the water rose to the villages, and those who did not have time or strength to climb onto roofs or steep slopes were subjected to horrific ordeals. Today (July 2023), exactly two years after […]

Cava with long ageing: outstanding tasting of Cavas de Paraje Calificado | Britt on Forbes

Britt Karlsson — Sun, 28 Apr 2024 10:00:46 +0000

The effervescent world of Cava produces 250 million bottles each year from 38,000 hectares of vineyards, not unlike Champagne, which makes around 300 million bottles from 34,000 hectares. But while champagne often basks in the glow of prestige and commands a steeper price, cava is affordable, and any enthusiast can enjoy its bubbly delights. However, […]

Wine in Ukraine, exporting in spite of the war, exhibiting at ProWein | Per on Forbes

Per Karlsson — Fri, 08 Mar 2024 08:36:53 +0000

If there was a war raging in your country, it’s hard to imagine that you would be thinking of making wine. But that’s what 160 winemakers in Ukraine do. They still make wine. February 24 marked two years since Russia invaded Ukraine. The war zone extends along all of the eastern border and the south […]
