T U R K E Y ! Here we come!

The next EWBC will be held in Turkey with a new theme "Source", more information can be found from here. I can only imagine how amazing this tour will be as this year in Brescia in the heart of Franciacort we had a BLAST.

I've had little experience with Turkey, though I have tasted some really good wines from there but it has never really catched on in my head and have not been too much interested on it. There is just one wine from Turkey in our monopoly store Alko which is "Sade" which is rather sad. Now, let's open a chapter of Jancis Robinson's Oxfords Companion to Wine on Turkey and see what I can find from there.

See you there next year and I'll order the #pizza.

Check out my interview at EWBC by Magnus Ericsson from Uppkorkat and check out the better version of opening a bottle with a shoe!

I attented a competition where Lindeman's was looking a 'winemaker' to their vineyards for two weeks. I got past 650 people to be chose for the final top 10 and managed to get from there to 2nd place. Australia would have been fun and I would have gained alot from it to share with you. Nothing that a glass of Champagne wont cure!

It was a fun day and great competition and huge congrats to Joonas Hämäläinen, who has also won the MasterChef of Finland and is writing a book about food. He just recently hooked up a publisher.

Hope you will have a blast Joonas in Australia and don't try to bowl kangaroos, the Australians don't like that!

I'm at 1:08!

High five to MadCatMedia who shot, edited and produced this film. It really shows the essence of the European Wine Blogger Conference.
