sandihurst wine: Wine and cricket...
http://sandihurst.blogspot.com/2009/11/wine-and-cricket.html
Wednesday, November 18, 2009. I heard this morning that a recent MCC poll conducted in NZ, South Africa and India found that less than 10% of people prefer Test Cricket. More than half of all Indians polled prefer the 20-20 format of the game. In a world where money and time are key, Test cricket is (sadly) on the way out. Naturally I can hear the purists turning over in their graves. What is the world coming too? It seems just as Test cricket is dying a slow death so it seems the wine world is changing.

http://sandihurst.blogspot.com/2009/12/pinot-noir-jancis-robinson.html
Sunday, December 13, 2009. Pinot Noir - Jancis Robinson. Jancis Robinsons Wine Course TV programme - Episode 7 Pinot Noir. Just an 8 minute taster. Brilliant stuff. Great quote that 4 out of 5 Burgundies JR tastes are 'disappointing' but that people are prepared to put up with that for the brilliance of the 5th. Thats worse than cork taint!

sandihurst wine: Back labels, can you trust them?
http://sandihurst.blogspot.com/2009/12/back-labels-can-you-trust-them.html
Sunday, December 13, 2009. Back labels, can you trust them? Located on Auckland idyllic Manukau Harbour, the Ihumatao vineyard sits in a sheltered 20,000 year old volcanic crater.". So reads the back label of Villa Maria's Ihumatao Vineyard Auckland Gewurztraminer 2008. Obviously that was preferable to writing. From the vineyard in front of our massive winery, situated on the edge of an industrial estate only minutes from the countries busiest airport'. December 14, 2009 at 9:12 AM. You are not a number.

Discussion by Doubtless Strategic Limited around the myriad issues affecting the New Zealand and global wine business. November 5, 2010. A New Zealand Chardonnay Classification. CBA is the reverse of ABC. Ten years ago in 2000, New Zealand not only grew more hectares of chardonnay than any other grape, but that year (for the last time) it was also the largest variety by tonnage harvested, about 30% of the total industry output. Ironically, New Zealand does not have the same issue of having to contend wit...
