You found yourself a brave wine expert there - coming up with a 91P Lambrusco is pretty ballsy and could easily get you kicked out by some wine "experts". I enjoyed your wine tasting very much. Finding wines for every day food is a challenge we should invest more time into. Often times we don't care and just rip open another bottle of pinot grigio or chardonnay because it's our current "Hauswein". It's just a little bit of time and money invested that can make a huge difference. Cheap supermarket wine: 3 Euros. Okay-ish qualities start at 5 Euros in Germany, so we're really only 2 Euro off. I personally drink less wine than I used to ever since I stepped up my wine game, so in theory you can spend less although you tripled the quality.

Exactly. I fully believe in climate change and understand it is changing the way grapes ripen in the vineyard but age changes a wine regardless of the change in weather. Even with climate change there is natural changes in weather year to year. Not to mention taste depends on more than just the grapes. The vigneur has impact. So this test is interesting but says nothing about climate change. Stuff like this gives ammo to the climate change deniers. Saying things that are patently untrue doesnt help the cause at all.

@@SirWussiePants They said in the video that yes the wine will have different tasting notes. But that it's the alcohol percentage and acidity of the wine that is being increased due to climate change. Anyone who works with yeast can tell you that the warmer it is the more active the yeast are and in wine making more active yeast means higher percentage alcohol. Therefore in a vineyard where the techniques and procedures haven't changed the thing that is creating a warmer environment is the climate. It's also important to remember that climate isn't the same as weather.
@SirWussiePants2 жыл бұрын
@@maidenrohina The higher temperatures mean that the grapes ripen more increasing the sugar level in the grapes making the higher alcohol content - not the temperature at fermentation. Picking earlier can alleviate that (but also increase acidity). I realize weather is not the same as climate. The larger issue with climate change in wine making is the extremes that come with it - ie more early thaws causing the vines to bud then a frost that can kill them lowering yield. Not to mention more intense storms and variability. Plus pests that normally would die in winter wont and thus become a problem. Yes, climate change changes the wine. But no, you cannot see that by drinking an old wine and a new one. With a time machine you could compare a 1 year old 1978 wine to a 1 year old 2021 wine, but comparing an aged wine to a young one is silly.

Yeah the difference between a 1 year old mead and even a 5 year old mead is night and day (I'm using mead as an example because the fermentable doesn't really change much year to year). Fresh wine and aged wine aren't really comparable. Maybe tasting a 30 yr and a 10 yr would be more comparable. But really without a time machine there isn't a way to AB test the "same" wine from year to year. If you kept a good journal and bought the same bottle year after year and could keep a record of tasting notes year to year you might be able to make some inferences but even then you are a variable.

Interesting video, I feel you two could get a whole series of films out of working together & watching your appreciation of wine go. It's nice seeming a beginner talk about wine as often there's often a lot of pretentiousness surrounding the subject. Also great that Konstantin is so down to earth. I must say that my favourite wines would not be classed as real wines by a lot of wine experts. I'm lucky enough to live near Cairn O'Mohr fruit winery. They make all of their wines from local fruits & leaves. Things like their Spring Oak Leaf, Cherry wine or Sparkling Gooseberry being my three favourites. But wine is very subjective, I remember an ex girlfriend being so excited to have me taste her favourite wine. She raved about it all the time. But on my first tasting of it I thought it was pretty disgusting. I also tended to ind that the Beaujolais nouveau race every November seemed more of a prestige thing rather than the new wines actually being any good. Konstantin made a good point about some inexpensive wines pairing with the food or their region or "goût de terroir". Some of the most enjoyable times I've had with wine is trying the inexpensive local wines paired with local foods & produce whilst travelling.

Did the wine company change suppliers for other additives that are added to wine? Just saying, there are NUMEROUS variables that could have changed. "climate change is why this tastes different" is just.....unscientific. Of course, weather changes on this planet every decade, whether humans affect it some or not.

Yo Andong, if you liked Lambrusco, you should try to match it with dishes from Emilia Romagna, especially the ragù based ones. It's made from there and it serves exactly the pourpose of equilibrate the fattiness of the flavours. Also, you should try to explore the different types of it: just at twenty kilometres of distance, the colours, the tastes and the aromas change completely. For example, I LOVE Grasparossa, the one made near Modena (a city well renowed for its balsamic vinegar, often made from Lambrusco grapes) and the ones from Reggio Emilia (like the Campanone): both of them are much rounder, tannic and deep than the average. At the opposite spectrum, there are the Salamino or the Sorbara (it is produced in the city where I live), that are way more crisp, acidic ("brusco" in the emilian dialect means something like "gently sour"), much closer to a rosé wine than a classic red, and they represent much more the typical Lambrusco taste. With them, the pairing of pork hock is a must have. Fun fact: the main reason for its bad reputation is related to its connection with the historical political leaning of the region: in Italy it is considered a "Communist wine" and a symbol of the "Festa dell'Unità", and by that a weapon against wine aristocracy. Have fun and great video!

As a semi experienced gardener, one thing I can guarantee you is that the soil those grapes were grown in, is not the same soil it was 32 years ago. There will be a different profile of nutrients both macro and micro, also the mix of soil life will be different depending on how the soil has been amended. People think that compost feeds the plants but that's not actually true, it feeds the microbes in the soil. Gardeners don't look after their plants, they look after their soil, which if healthy does 90% of the job for you. Of course how the grapes were trained, pruned and processed may also have changed but you would probably know more than me on this area. You aren't just tasting climate change (plants don't take in much from the air but CO2, though of course weather will change the taste) but also 32 years of (presumably) hard work and labour by the farmers. Agriculture is no longer just 'plant a seed/vine and lol weather happens, might get something', technique and methods have improved as well.

Luckily I have one good vine store that I know, but sadly not in my town, but instead where my parents live.

Also I try to stay away from so called "Cuvée's" since these ones are just a mix of many grape sorts. I agree with you that Bordeaux can be a good choice. Maybe, as mentioned by Konstantin, less known vine yards like these in the Savoie can be a good choice, too.

I know same nothing about wine. One wine is from 2018 and the second one is about 30 years older. It it the biggest difference between this two bottle. Not a climate change.

2018 was also a very hot year in Bordeaux and 1986 was much more cool

Thank you for this Episode. Can we get a Shopping List for this wine's? Especially the Sparkling red wine. Sounds really interesting and sometimes really hard to find a good Dealer. Thank you!

what an excellent video, man... I'm a bit bummed it doesn't have a million views or so

Very interesting, I am a Konstantin subscriber guess that’s why this was suggested. Always funny to see someone having their world expanded. Was annoying though that the host starting slurping the wine out of the glass instead of sucking in air while the wine was in the mouth. But great vid none the less

so, enjoyable episode for the nice wine pairings and andong's reactions to all the wines. however I didn't feel it was so successful in demonstrating the effects of climate change. the observations about different flavors between the old vs young wines are more about maturation (i.e., primary vs tertiary characteristics). wish you could have commented further on your perceptions of the alcohol, acidity, and ripeness levels between the wines, which can be more directly traced back to differing climates. jedenfalls, it was a very entertaining episode and was fun to watch. alles gute!

It would be interesting to try a something a little older maybe circa 1950. Not necessarily easy or affordable though...

I really appreciate the "bullshit in the wine world" segment - there's so, SO much bullshit about wine, especially regarding the price/quality relationship. It's almost as bad as the art market...

Been meaning to watch this for a while, was a really cool video getting to see things in depth and the climate change concept with it was also great to hear about. Great video!

I wonder was that the Clarence Hotel in Dublin? The Hotel is owned by U2. If so I now wonder have I met Konstantin in a past life. I’ve been following his channel for quite some time now. I love listening to him talk about wine. ❤

Very nice video. Thank you. Missed opportunity to have paired with one of those wine shipment companies. Climate change is a MoFo. It's getting hotter, that is for sure. But at least northern regions will be able to produce some amazing wines that we can drink while the world burns. It was nice to watch the crew have some tasting as well.
@tiff21062 жыл бұрын
Those wine shipping companies are not (yet?) super popular in Germany. Agree with your thoughts on climate change.

Will the newer wine from 2018 taste almost the same like the vintage-one after 35 years? That's a question for the wine master. Same question also reversed.
@floydblandston1082 жыл бұрын
No it won't, and that's the point. The newer vintage is entering the bottle with more sugar and ripeness- with the same farm/soils/grape variety- making for a very different product over its entire life.
