Video: Unknown facts about world-renowned grape varieties, part I
At the first seminar, the fundamentals will be clarified: who is whose father? Is Chardonnay the daughter to the Pinot Noir or vice versa? And what about Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Meunier & Pinot Noir? Most folks would answer: ‘Four different grape varieties’! But no. Genetically speaking, the four are one and the same variety. José Vouillamoz will explain to us why we differentiate between them.
The science of Genetics can decode matters beyond any doubt, confirming or refuting any & all hypotheses. In the webinar, we will get underway with two of the world’s most admired & best-loved grape varieties and then follow with Austria’s superstar Grüner Veltliner.
