Decanter Magazine just posted its Top 10 varietal wines from South Africa, highlighting yet again how strong the country’s wine industry has become. And it’s not just Pinotage and Chenin Blanc, either: From Syrah to Cabernet Sauvignon to lots of great grapes in between, South Africa is an incredibly exciting place for wine, and all signs point to even better things to come.
And a couple of weeks ago, we covered the issue of wine and health here on UncorkLife.com, specifically the health benefits (or not…) or Resveratrol supplements. Now, it seems, some winemakers are taking it one step further. Click here for details.
And finally, good news for Prosecco’s Conegliano-Valdobbiadene, which is now officially Italy’s 41st DOCG, joining the likes of Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino, and Barbaresco. Congratulazioni, Prosecco!
