What is Resveratrol & Can I Drink More Red Wine?
Posted onWhen I first asked the question, What is Resveratrol I was pleasantly surprised to discover that it’s derived from the skin of a red wine grape. Surely this must just be another angle for red wine lovers around the world to justify their need to consume more of their favorite tipple. That may indeed be the case but now that a number of respected bio scientists and Oprah Winfrey are singing its praises I realized that there may be more to this interestingly named ‘health food’ than meets the eye.
After further investigation I discovered some interesting facts about the consumption of red wine that many of you may not realize. There have been a number of studies to support the theory that moderate consumption of wine cuts death rates by up to 40% per year. I’m sure if you’re a wine lover then you will have been well aware of these claims and happily recite them whenever your spouse questions your occasional over indulgence. Now that they have actually identified and named the component that plays a major part in this theory, it all starts to sound a lot more interesting.
Before you dash out to your local liquor store all this needs to be put into perspective. So far Resveratrol has only been successfully tested on rats, mice and other similar ‘non human’ type characters. I’m not sure how they actually tested the rats but part of me hopes they allowed them to sample at least a small glass of Cab Sav before they started dissecting them. Anyway, it appears that Resveratrol had the effects of lowering the blood sugar, removed brain plaque (don’t ask!), increased cardiovascular function and generally helped to increase their life span.
That’s all very well, I hear you ask, but does this mean that you can now continue to consume vast quantities of the red ‘falling over’ liquid and if challenged by any loved ones play the ‘medicinal purposes’ card? Well, you could always try, you do need to keep in mind though that whilst the Resveratrol component of your consumption may indeed prolong your life, give your more energy and keep your grey matter clear of tooth decay you will still need to survive the missiles and torrents of abuse from your ever loving spouse.
Hopefully this has provided you with a better understanding of how Resveratrol can improve your live (and relationships!), for those that need more to ‘quench their thirst’ this link will provide you with more handy information.

Tasting Time: In The Hot Summer Drink Red Wine Law – Wine, Wine – Food Industry – Kitchen Pressure
Posted on In the summer, Wine Can only be air-conditioned room, Beverages It?
High temperature of 33 degrees Celsius under the drink taste of Spain Toro producing strong, Wine Up to 15% of the top fine Red wine With the hot summer around the same table to eat hot pot not seasonal. To eat drink readily, most need a really high-tonnage air conditioners. However, the most sensible, and more Environmental protection Carbon reduction method, and perhaps both of these high-alcohol red wine has strong all incorporated into cellars, in the fall before the arrival of the first summer thirst quenching drink wine now! Yes, thirst quenching, a long forgotten world of wine taste value, in our increasingly hot planet, perhaps winemakers and wine makers began to seriously consider with the response to this problem. Is full of strong wine autumn and winter, please give me cool little wine bar!
In my experience, there is no other wine than from the Mo Seer Creek (Mosel) of Riesling (Riesling) Spirit A more refreshing. However, please do not misunderstand, I’m not talking super-high concentration of TBA is not rare is botrytis grapes Auselese, but the most ordinary common, the price is also very plain in Kabinette. Scent of flowers and fruits aroma with mineral and green lemon calm, low alcohol, slightly sweet and delicious, accompanied by mouth drops to flow continuously to the strong acidity, no air conditioner in the summer to drink icy cold the cup, the most refreshing is fun, extremely refreshing, after a drink, it is difficult not drink several glasses. As it is now such a hot season, and that is worth more than the ice in the refrigerator several bottles of wine, while definitely not over the top wine cabinet.
Addition to German-style Riesling, were not sweet, not too much oak Barrel Taste, fresh acid, the young fresh dry white wine of choice is the same in summer. Royal River from Sancerre to New Zealand Marlborough (Marlborough) The Sauvignon (SauvignonBlanc); from Alsace (Alsace) to Australia ClareValley of Riesling; Burgundy’s Chablis (Chablis), northern Italy, gray skin Snow (PinotGriggio), Spain, Galicia (Galicia) in the RiasBaixas, Austria GrnerVeltiner even from the hot Andalusian, is very delicate and detailed Manzanilla sherry. These are the summer will allow me to look forward to the arrival of the charming summer wine quickly.
Course, not only was cool and refreshing white wine, pink wine and sparkling wine is the preferred summer. In recent years, not sweet pink wine popular in the world after the international market can choose the type of pink wine suddenly many more. Except for a few more pink wine producing areas of production such as Long Valley, Provence and Tavel, there is now even had disdain pink wine producing areas of production and the winery also began to launch an IPO, which also includes many top Bordeaux Chateau, shows that the market demand is great. More frustrating is that now the Taiwan market is still very few pink wine.
Unimaginable, drinking red wine for summer, in fact, like a lot, but, most of them are stretch top, at least, not in the price is. Top of the wine refreshing because in addition to less often a strong addition of alcohol, the more important to pay attention to taste top wines structure, they must be able to durable storage, usually contain more tannin, and when the wine’s temperature is too low when it will become more astringent tannins more difficult to import, loss of balance to the top of the wine. Although no matter what type of wine, proper drinking temperature is not the 20 , so the temperature in the summer it is drinking slightly in pleasant for a little cold, but really cool for summer, the drink of the wine it can be re- ice point that, to be able to drop 12 , and even directly from the refrigerator out, the same can be very soft and easy to read, and the wine to be bold to taste even at low temperatures are pleasant as can a pure heart, not completely closed.
This wine tannins are very small, only being able to cold and will not appear too thin and stuck into the top, therefore, also less durable, the best take advantage of the fresh sweet taste of youth, early taste, after bottling After five or six years have passed after the usually the best time.
Drink Wine Properly
Posted onWine drinking is one of the favourite pastimes of many Australians. It is indeed a common sight to see an Australian family sitting together in the evening, with the kids playing in front of the fireplace while Mum and Dad enjoy a nice glass of wine. Most often it is red wine with some crackers and cheese. The regular wine drinker would swear by the fact that this, by far, is the most relaxing and enjoyable evening, and the subtle alcohol in the wine helps them relax more. In fact wine drinking, at all times of the day is fast gaining popularity the world over.
Wine is not a drink like beer that you pour into a glass and gulp or drink straight from the can. It is a very dignified drink that calls for manners and dignity while drinking. It also calls for some easy to follow procedures that should be remembered should you or a family member be very fond of drinking wine.
The first amongst these procedures is having the wine at the right temperature. The old adage of having chilled white wines and red wines at room temperature does not work anymore. Room temperatures can mean anything and having white wines chilled is wrong as well. The ideal temperature for having a white wine should be an approximate 11.7 degrees Fahrenheit while for a red wine is around 17 degrees Fahrenheit. It is said that old and matured white wines should be allowed a period of time before they are taken and should be taken out of the chiller at least 15 minutes prior to service. Specialised wine chillers are also available in the market, which cool the wine to precise temperatures.
Another thing to remember is that wine is not beer. It is not meant to be slugged and gulped. It is a dignified drink that is meant to be sipped slowly and enjoyed. You should spend time savouring the aroma that the wine exudes and the colour and texture of the wine itself. Enjoy the wine with every sip and use all your taste buds to taste and enjoy the Australian wine. One glass of Australian wine can last a very long time if it is leisurely sipped and slowly enjoyed.
Last but not the least; wine must be drunk in a special wine glass. It cannot be just poured into any glass or tumbler or be had from a pitcher, the way beer is enjoyed. Wine must be had in a specialised wine glass like the burgundy glass or the Bordeaux glass or such, that allows for the wine to be twirled around and champagne, yet another form of wine must be enjoyed in a champagne tulip, a glass that allows you to savour the colour of the champagne, relish the aroma, keep the bubbles in place and yet allow you to have an enjoyable drink!
