The Grapevine

Wine Industry News for 6/6/16

June 6th, 2016

(Grape) growing pains in Spain. Yes, we can. (Sell wine in a can.) Enough with the parentheses: manga comics on food and wine pairing, the next rosé, more on the master of fake wines, and less from the folks championing less. [level-members]

According to the New York Times, Spain’s industrialization of its wine industry has gotten a bit out of hand. That’s causing some pain. Read the full article here.

Wine in Cans
Quaffable summer drinks just may be the entry point that wine-in-a-can needs. Yes, we can.

Just because you’re already convicted and behind bars doesn’t mean you can’t be sued. Ask Rudy and his alleged wine-fake co-conspirators.

No More from the Less is More Folks
In Pursuit of Balance will no longer be seeking a move back to a more restrained style of winemaking. They’re done.
