The 2017 vintage is a warm year that will require a very poor hand to make an under-ripe Amarone della Valpolicella. With plenty of richness in the wines, will there still be finesse in the mix? winexin.sg/2022/07/28/amaron…

Instagram and Facebook is down, it seems. We found out when the livestream sales we were watching suddenly went dead. Poor sales person. She was on a roll too.

If you are unvaccinated, at least have the balls to own it, and not try to lie your way through safety protocols designed to protect you and others, with a screenshot.

Pro tip for all our F&B friends: From tomorrow, some anti-vax mooks might try to pull a fast one by screenshotting friends’ TT app to bluff that they’re vaxxed (the irony). Make them press the refresh button. It’s a new feature! If nothing happens, they’re showing u a screenshot.

Not sure how many have heard of it. Don Tay of Bacchus wine shop, one of the veterans of Singapore wine world, passed away on Sunday night. I don't know him in person, but I think he should still be remembered... #sgwine #rip

"Don was as down-to-earth as a person as he was a dedicated wine retailer. No snobbery full-stop. By the time he started Bacchus, his shop was known for its remarkable range and depth of wine, fair prices, and personalized service." chngpohtiong.com/goodbye-don…

My opinion is that Valpolicella Superiore should stay the way it is. Leave appassimento to Amarone, Recioto (and Ripasso). There is a market for fresher wines, and it doesn't make sense to cannibalize product categories. #vs2021

JC Viens: "From the survey with producers, a great majority of producers don't think Valpolicella Superiore should taste of appassimento." #vs2021
Canada is the biggest export market for Valpolicella and Ripasso... But accounts for only 10% of Amarone export. Does that mean Canadians prefer fresher lighter style of wines? #vs2021

JC Viens: "Small wineries take a very balance approach towards producing Valpolicella, Ripasso and Amarone products." Medium-to-large wineries are more vested in Ripasso production. #vs2021
