This is how getting certified by the Tucson City of Gastronomy can impact your business.

The wine industry suffers enough from a reputation of elitism and exclusivity, it doesn’t need yet another super elite private club. Leaders of fine wine and fine dining should be working towards grass roots education to inspire, attract talent and develop & acquire new markets. Instead, this new private elite club member venture is clearly sending out the message of division, exclusion and in other words “if you’re not rich enough you can’t join our club”. Sad but true. #winebusiness #wine https://lnkd.in/gYiQptd5

Let us get a bit serious about wine today! Why not? Whether we are fans of Burgundy or not, we can’t ignore the incredible finesse and amazing combination of its terroir and top winemakers. Domaine Vincent Girardin is one of them, classified as “rising star” by our in-house master and best awarded French Sommelier Antoine Petrus. And there’s a reason for that: I had the privilege to taste numerous of his bottles over the years and I can testify of the constantly growing quality. As we know, in all things #burgundywines quantities are small, particularly when we’re talking about the Grand Crus. But with this producer, if those are too deep for your pockets, the 1er cru and Villages are a very safe bet and despite the crazy Burgundy prices, still affordable. Not to forget WineChain enables you to buy wines directly from the top producers via a digital twin in your wallet (what we call a wineft), which you can keep or trade while we store the wines perfectly in Burgundy for you. Shipping is also available in 56 countries when you decide it’s time to drink it. Build your cellar in the cloud while keeping the maximmm value from your #wine #investments. Only on www.winechain.co

Just got out of a Zoom with organizers of The 1976 Redo (https://www.the76redo.com). First, attn vintners: Although deadline for wine submissions is officially tomorrow (06/21), you'll still be able to submit anytime before the first round of judging in mid-July. Second, if you're still wondering why this is being done: Keep in mind that the original 1976 Paris Tasting occurred when, frankly, Californians barely knew a bunghole from bâtonnage The industry has come a long way since. Many vintners have long stopped mindlessly imitating European models, despite increased appreciation. There's heightened awareness of appellations and terroirs, not to mention exponential skill level, experience and technology, although production of good and interesting wine (like any product) is a forever-and-ever process everywhere in the world. Plus, The 1976 Redo is meant to highlight all American wines (not just Californian). Stay tuned, should be interesting. Also re https://lnkd.in/gDRv7r4T

Though winemaking in Mexico’s Valle de Guadalupe dates back to 1683, most vines were abandoned or torn out by war, and by 1997, only 10 had survived. Today, the region is comprised of nearly 200 wineries, making up 90% of Mexico’s wine. So who is responsible for the region’s recent growth? As SevenFifty Daily reports, “Pedro Poncelis Raygoza, the founder of Vinícola Punto y Aparte, believes the identity of Valle de Guadalupe is in the hands of the next generation of winemakers.” Raygoza, once named the best sommelier in Mexico by the Association de la Sommellerie Internationale, may have a point. In recent years, we have seen second- and third-generation vintners transforming their family vineyards and producing innovative wines that excite today’s wine consumers.

WineChain announced today that it has reached the important milestone of 100 international wineries* onboarded on its platform. Didier Dagueneau, Thibault Liger-Belair, Egon Muller, Charles Heidsieck, Cantina Rizzi, Château Climens, Beaucastel, Roederer, Symington Family, Domaine Vaccelli..... All have successfully completed all the necessary steps to be ready to launch their next exclusive offers on WineChain: from now on, they can choose independently the wine, the quantity, the price, the geographical areas on which the offer is made and the royalties attached to the smart contract, all important criteria for the success of their operation. Resolutely Web3-oriented, WineChain - which was created by winegrowers for winegrowers - makes perfect sense for the world's top names in wine. Antoine Pétrus (Director of Wine): "The WineChain community is convinced that the great wines of tomorrow are still only at the 'hidden gem' stage, and that the role of our platform is to promote them. WineChain is the platform for all great wines, not just those of today, but also those of tomorrow. As more and more iconic estates join WineChain to offer their wines exclusively to a new generation of private customers, it was only natural to associate them with the rising stars and hidden gems that will come to the fore in the years to come."
