I really enjoy your short casts on so many topics surrounding different wine grapes and wines. Thanks for this short cast on Chardonnay. Very helpful. Cheers!

Great series of winecasts ! The 7 to 9 min format is perfect

[@TheUnknownWinecaster]

Thanks! I like the 7 to 9 minutes too; it's less taxing to deal with than the longer casts but still presents a fair amount of information. I think most of the grape varietal and science/technical casts will end up in that range, but some casts for wine regions, especially the larger ones, will probably still drift over into 13-15 minute territory. Thanks for watching and writing!

[@fredm2228]

I will definitely continue watching your casts! Each of them gets to the point as well as provides detailed information on the main regions to look after. Very instructive!

Hi Unknown, when we read the levels of PH, is it mentioned that level after malo or before malo? im assuming that the malo drops the level of acidity (ph becomes higher)..am i right? chheeerrss

[@TheUnknownWinecaster]

The pH level on the technical sheet should be the pH after all wine making has been completed, including MLF. MLF does raise pH somewhat, though if you're really serious about lowering the acidity of a white wine you'll usually undertake a more aggressive process than MLF. MLF is more about creating a particular style (in whites, anyway). Hope that's helpful. Cheers! P.S. Here's a good article that address a lot of issues related to pH in case I missed something in your question. winemakermag.com/547-phiguring-out-ph
