No essay this week, as our Wine Explorer is focused on finalizing our next collection (stay tuned for more information in the coming months).
Instead, we’ll hear from Julien on the mysteries of the “second fermentation”… including which wines actually undergo the process… how 1st and 2nd fermentations change the 2 (or 3) main acids in wine… effects of these acids on your palate… and how winemakers use (or avoid) the 2nd fermentation to find the right balance…
See you next week...
P.S. Have you heard about our new "Wine of the Week" segment? We won't spoil the surprise but we recently re-released a 92 pt wine from our 2021 Mediterranean Collection.
There are still a few left. Click here to find out what it is...
