10 Questions With Wine Expert Karen MacNeil - Fit Bottomed Girls

preview

; Wine expert Karen MacNeil says that: “A life with wine is so much richer and more delicious than a life without it!” And, we couldn’t agree more. Life IS better with wine (in moderation, obviously).And, to help you love what’s in your glass even more, we asked Karen 10 of our burning vino-related questions. As the author of The Wine Bible (which, just had its third edition released and is considered the bestselling wine book in America, with more than 800,000 copies in print), she quite literally wrote the book on wine.Just open the book anywhere and start reading! There are fascinating side boxes and stories on every page. Most people read The Wine Bible (WB) in this unconventional way. It’s also fun to buy a bottle of wine, look up that region in the WB, and read while you sip. I love the brand new chapter on Great Britain, which is now making delicious sparkling wines that have a lot in common with Champagne. Climate change has hurt many wine regions, but it has benefitted England, making the climate conducive to great wine. I also love the new chapter called “In the Beginning … Wine in the Ancient World.” Fascinating!Spain and Portugal make sensational wines from native varieties like Tempranillo and Touriga Nacional (both red grapes). The wine culture in these two countries is ancient, the wines are fantastic and they are STEALS! Many terrific wines under $25.Wine is very welcoming. It really doesn’t matter where you start. Just pick a country and start drinking wines from there. If you drink the wines of one country for say six months, you’ll discover that you have actually acquired a good idea of the flavors of those wines. Then move on to country No. 2. And so on. Just begin!People often swallow wine too quickly. If you swallow too quickly you won’t taste anything and you’ll have no idea how delicious the wine really is.Champagne and potato chips are high on my list. Also rosé and grilled cheese sandwiches.Low-calorie wines are often highly manipulated. I would rather drink a half glass of the real thing than a glass of (usually not very good) low-calorie wine.Wine interest is exploding across the globe. EVERYTHING is interesting.Wine takes time — years of time. Often it takes 10 years or more to plant a vineyard and make and age a wine BEFORE it is released. Wine is the ultimate non-trend. I love it because of that.Champagne (from France of course), Pinot Noir from California and Oregon, German and Austrian Riesling.&nbsp;A huge thanks to Karen for taking the time to answer our questions! And, for the record, we couldn’t agree more with her thoughts on low-calorie wine. Cheers, y’all! —Jenn&nbsp;Some content / photos excerpted from The Wine Bible, 3rd Edition by Karen MacNeil.
