あらすじ・解説
Scott Albert, the winemaker at Kite Hill Vineyards and Holotype Wine Company joins the show to talk about Chambourcin and how the Shawnee Hills AVA in southern Illinois is unique.
In this episode we discuss the diversity of wine styles that Chambourcin can be made into, ranging from a rosé to a barrel aged red. While we often associate Illinois with flat fertile row crop fields, but we discuss how the Shawnee Hills AVA sets itself apart from northern Illinois. If you are a winemaker, Anne and Scott get into plenty of winemaking details!
