Icewine by R. R. Bruno Pdf

"ICEWINE" is a thriller that is set in Europe and follows the adventures of Alex James, owner of a boutique hotel and gourmet restaurant in London, his girlfriend, a tempestuous Italian wine buyer, and his friend, a wealthy, Egyptian philanthropist and gourmand. The adventure begins when Alex and his friends purchase a vintage bottle of rare German wine at a London auction. The wine is Icewine, a unique wine that can only be produced when grapes freeze on the vine, are immediately picked, and pressed into wine. Their bottle was once the property of Hermann Goring, second in command to Adolf Hitler. By luck, the trio uncovers a microfilm on the underside of the label that was hidden by Goring. The microfilm contains a clue to a fortune he hid during the waning months of the war; a fortune that would be used to begin a new Reich. The trio deciphers the clue and decides to follow where it leads them. All the while, they are being tracked by Nazi killers, who intended to purchase the bottle themselves and will stop at nothing to claim Goring's hidden fortune. The adventure takes them across Europe as they unravel the clues to the fortune, ultimately confronting the Nazi killers and the secret past of Hermann Goring.

Icewine by John Schreiner Pdf

In the last decade, icewine has become a phenomenon among wine lovers. Like many good things, it had accidental beginnings -- an early frost caught grapes still on the vine. The desperate wine maker pressed the grapes anyway and voila -- a rich, sweet dessert wine was discovered. For a long time, icewine, or Eiswein, was only made in Germany and Austria on those rare occasions -- maybe once in a decade -- when climate conditions permitted. With the growth of the wine industry in North America in the 1970s and 80s, icewine became a natural for the vineyards of the northern U.S. and Canada, where it can be produced every year. Today, with high quality standards and strong marketing campaigns, icewine has become a prized addition to the gourmet dinner table Icewine now rivals the great dessert wines of Sauternes, and it is starting to be produced in unexpected regions such as California and New Zealand, using freezers rather than winter. With all these new producers and growing interest in it, the market is ripe for an informative book about icewine. With his extensive knowledge of the current wine scene, John Schreiner is in an ideal position to write this, the first authoritative guide to icewine. Schreiner writes on wine for several publications and is the author of The World of Canadian Wine.

Managing Wine Quality by Andrew G. Reynolds Pdf

Many aspects of both grape production and winemaking influence wine sensory properties and stability. Progress in research helps to elucidate the scientific basis of quality variation in wine and to suggest changes in viticulture and oenology practices. The two volumes of Managing wine quality review developments of importance to wine producers and researchers. The focus is on recent studies, advanced methods and likely future technologies. Part one of the second volume Oenology and wine quality opens with chapters reviewing the impact of different winemaking technologies on quality. Topics covered include yeast and fermentation management, enzymes, ageing on lees, new directions in stabilisation, clarification and fining of white wines and alternatives to cork in wine bottle closures.

The volume concludes with chapters on the management of the quality of ice wines and sparkling wines. With authoritative contributions from experts across the world’s winemaking regions, Managing wine quality is an essential reference work for all those involved in viticulture and oenology wanting to explore new methods, understand different approaches and refine existing practices. Reviews the impact of different technologies on wine quality Discusses yeast and fermentation management, enzymes and ageing on lees Considers issues surrounding wine sensory quality including cork taint and the impact of ageing on flavour deterioration

Ask the Wine Doctor by Edward Finstein Pdf

In an accessible question-and-answer format, Edward Finstein (a.k.a. Dr. WineKnow) takes the reader through the various areas of wine knowledge, working with questions he has been asked by clients and students during his quarter-century as a wine consultant, writer, and teacher. He addresses questions about the growing of wine, making it, finding and buying it (including a demystification of the puzzling information on wine labels), storing and aging it, and serving it (where should you store your glasses to assure good tasting?). Most attention, however, is paid to enjoying it, including how to handle restaurant wine lists and rituals, how your health can affect your tasting, and how to get the most from the matching of food and wine. Each chapter is peppered with “Grape Flashes,” containing interesting bits of information, and the book also includes a glossary of wine terms, a simple guide to food and wine matching, and a selected bibliography for further reading. Edward Finstein believes that the most important thing about wine is enjoyment – and understanding aids that enjoyment. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Goodgrog by John Schreiner Pdf

Goodgrog: A Life in Wine and Journalism chronicles the life, and especially the career, of journalist John Schreiner, who may have had one of the most enviable jobs ever: wine writer. For over forty years, in newspaper and magazine articles and columns and through nineteen books, Schreiner has entertained and informed Canadian wine drinkers, championed British Columbia wineries, and helped establish the credibility of the Canadian wine industry. His research for this has involved visiting and sampling the wares of wineries across British Columbia, Canada, the US, Europe, South America, Australia, and New Zealand. He has also judged several prestigious wine competitions in Italy and British Columbia. But there is much more to Schreiner’s story than his experience as one of Canada’s leading wine writers. He begins his tale in Indian Head, Saskatchewan, where he was born in the latter years of the Depression. From there, he takes readers along his journey as a journalist at the Regina Leader-Post and finally the Financial Post, where he covered some of Western Canada’s biggest business stories and had the opportunity to travel the world doing economic reports. Filled with anecdotes from both his private and professional life, as well as with stories about the Canadian wine industry and some of British Columbia’s more colourful politicians and business leaders, this book is good to the last drop.
