    Adventurous story of Grauburgunder in Italy!

    Hello and welcome to the 4th episode of our podcast "Why White Wine", in which we taste white wine on air! Today's guest on the table is the famous grape, known by various names and with a rich and adventurous history.  Grauburgunder, Pinot Grigio or Pinot Gris has been known since the Middle Ages in the ⁠Burgundy region⁠, where it was probably called ⁠Fromenteau⁠. ⁠ From Burgundy, it spread together with ⁠Pinot Noir and⁠ arrived in Switzerland around 1300. According to reports, the vine was a favorite of Emperor ⁠Charles IV,⁠ who had cuttings exported to Hungary by ⁠Cistercian monks⁠ ⁠:⁠ the friars planted the vines on the slopes of ⁠Badacsony⁠ on ⁠Lake Balaton⁠ in 1375. The vine was soon given the name Szürkebará, which means "gray monk". In 1711, a German merchant named ⁠Johann Seger Ruland⁠ (re)discovered a wild grape growing in the fields of the ⁠Palatinate⁠ ⁠.⁠ The wine he subsequently produced became known as Ruländer, and the grape was later discovered as Pinot Gris⁠.

    Austria's signature white wine grape: Grüner Veltliner by Leo Maurer

    Grüner Veltliner literally means ‘green grape from the village of Veltlin in Tyrol’ and it is generally assumed that it must be closely related to two other varieties that are currently making a comeback: Roter Veltliner and Früher Roter Veltliner, also known as Frühroter Veltliner. In today's episode, we introduce you to the evergreen, beautiful grape from the Weinviertel in Austria, produced by Leo Maurer.

    Erbaluce di Caluso: sustainable wine from Piedmont

    Hello and welcome to the new episode where Uli and Darina are tasing the grape Erbaluce Bianca produced by Benito Favaro. Take a look at his website here: https://www.cantinafavaro.it Find a historical overview on Erbaluce by Slow Food here: https://www.slowfood.it/slowine/en/erbaluce-a-hidden-treasure-from-the-north-of-piedmont/ This grape has a long history in the Piedmont region, with the first written record dating to 1606. It is likely that it originated in the alpine hills of northern Piedmont. Wines made from Erbaluce tend to be dry with noticeable acidity, which is great for balancing out the sweetness. While the grape's acidity makes it ideal for sweet wine production, the dry wines need to have a lot of fruit in them to balance that acidity. Both the dry and sweet styles of Erbaluce tend to have that lovely apple aroma and flavour. Since the 1990s, Piedmontese producers have been working hard to improve the quality of Erbaluce wines so they can compete with the whites of Cortese and Arneis. contact us: whywhitewine@gmail.com #wine #whitewine #winepodcast #podcast #whywhitewine #erbaluce #benitofavaro #favarowine #favarobenito
