Wine Labeling Rules
This article in the Miami Herald provides an excellent introduction to how wine terms are regulated: http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/05/05/2202961/stricter-wine-labeling-rules-put.html#ixzz1LX0mmhW1
As the article points out, many people think words such as Proprietors Blend, Barrel Fermented, Bottle Aged, Old Vine, Vineyard, and Reserve mean something or other – and they’re right, they do mean something, but there are no rules on what they should mean.
New proposed regulations by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau would tighten up some of these definitions.
Interesting tidbit: the word Estate Bottled is regulated and can only be used if certain conditions are met. But the word Estate is unregulated and can mean anything the winemaker wants it to.
Sorry, no Mother’s Day wine quiz!
We had requests for a Mother’s Day wine quiz – something to parallel the Father’s Day Wine Quiz, but we didn’t quite get to it in time. Sorry wine quiz fans!
Well, now we have a whole year to work on it.
Still, don’t you think mom will probably enjoy the Father’s Day Wine Quiz more than dad will? It is a little, how do they say, derisive?

A: Marie Antoinette’s breast
B: The head of Dom Perignon’s infant son
C: A Spanish orange
Like all Wine Teasers questions, it doesn’t really matter if you know the answer, because each question has a GREAT BIG HINT. You move ahead more quickly if you don’t need the hint, but it’s always there, ensuring that Wine Teasers wine game is playable by even people who know little about wine.
Hint: Let them drink 34B!
Answer: A. This glass, called a “coupe,” is now out of fashion, since its wide surface area allows bubbles to dissipate. Much better is the long, thin tulip or flute-shaped glass. No word on what or who was the model for that.
That’s an actual question from Cork Jester’s Wine Teasers wine game, the most fun, zany, unintimidating wine game on the planet!

New Review of Wine Teasers as Gift Idea

Their main reason for recommending Wine Teasers as a wine gift is summed up in their statement, “A bottle you would recommend is a decent option, but something such a friend might appreciate even more is a way to increase their own acumen for wine”
We agree! Head over to Amazon.com and grab a copy of Wine Teasers today!
