Link Tips

Some wine sites that you might enjoy visiting:

• New findings on how soil (or terroir if you wish) influences wine: “A new, improved level of soil mapping” in Wine Business Monthly
  
• Pacific Ridge Winery, not least because the owner is Bob Kelly, thus with the initials BK..., but also because of the beautiful location: www.pacificridgewinery.com
  
• On Crozes-Hermitage in International Herald Tribune
  
• Food, Wine and Travel – that’s the heading on the site of the Australian wine writer Christine Salins. Sounds interesting: www.foodwinetravel.com.au
  
• Volatile acidity – What is it? How to prevent it? Read and learn on Wine Maker
  
• All about Rhône. Well, maybe not quite, but a lot of interesting commentaries on tasted Rhône wines by John Livingstone-Learmonth, the author of the best books on Rhône wines: http://www.drinkrhone.com (we will review his new brick-size tome on northern Rhône in a future issue)
  
• 100 Top Wine Blogs. (Cannot help being a bit proud of BKWine having three blogs on the list: 15 for Wine Pictures, 22 for The Monopoly Blog (about the Swedish monopoly), and 83 for the BKWine Brief Blog. What do we do wrong with the BKWine Brief Blog??)
