As easy as 1-2-3 is not what it is to produce a new issue of the Brief (hint: look at what issue it is).
We are still recovering – catching up – from a rather hectic travel season, so I will keep this brief. (That is what it is supposed to be, remember?)
This month we can give you a bit more insight into the harvest in 2013 with the “official” versions of the harvest report from Austria and Germany. (You had ours last month.)
Some of the other themes in this Brief: calvados and skeet (we mean clay pigeon shooting), Doktor (not doctored) wine from Germany, sex & wine & Belgians, and a bit of Champagne. Plus a number of other things too.
We also have an essay about Mendoza in Argentina, a wine region full of contrasts. And an essay about a winery visit in Franschhoek with an unexpected finish. As well as two quite different articles on Bordeaux.
A reminder about upcoming wine tours:
There are a few places left on the Chile-Argentina wine tour in February, and the wine tour to South Africa in March. However, if you are interested you need to book soon, very soon, to make sure that you get a place. Later in the spring we also have a magnificent wine tour to the Douro Valley in northern Portugal. All these tours will give you both spectacular landscapes, delicious wines and good food. Book now!
Don’t miss the activities at Vinisud. We are participating at two events there. If you are coming to Vinisud it would be great to see you!
