Variety show
Continuing our theme of talking about grape varieties this week (wait, when did that become a theme?), one of the best resources out there is, surprisingly, Appellation America. It’s surprising since there are two main ways to talk about wine, one using the grape variety and the other, the region where the grapes are grown. Being called Appellation American, you’d think they’d be more in favor of the latter. But they are clearly equal opportunity.
The illustrations are often hilarious and always useful for helping to remember something about grape varieties, both mainstream and off the beaten path.
Maybe Mike Steinberger would have been less grumpy about Sauvignon Blanc if he had seen her, um, profile?
