Rheinhessen: Rediscovered German Wine Country

When I was little, I wanted to become an explorer. I read all the first hand accounts of territorial conquests but concluded with some sadness that the world was already explored. It took me a while to learn that some things can be rediscovered. Rheinhessen is such a place. Riesling is such a grape.

See Rheinhessen: Rediscovered German Wine Country (html), , Color Magazine USA, Ed. 37, May 2011.

- 10 Reasons Why Obama Should Appoint Romney as Secretary of Business November 10, 2012
  In a surprising move, President Obama has appointed Governor Romney as Secretary of Business, in charge of new business creation and with the mandate to drastically simplify the regulations for small businesses. Fantasy, you say? Yes, for now, but this would be a brilliant move. Here’s why. Obama needs to demonstrate what he means by [...]

- 10 Ways To Gain Energy From A Long-Haul Flight April 14, 2011
  Flying used to drain my energy. Whether on a short or long flight, I could not sleep. I could not rest. I felt crammed. I got stressed. I was inconvenienced by airport security. All of this went on for many years. Then, I decided not to wait to be comfortable until I was in a [...]

  I recently spoke to a group of Product Marketing students at KU Leuven, the famous and ancient university in Belgium. Despite my warnings that they were taller, smarter, and funnier than me and that there was no reason to think that I should give them advice, rather the reverse, they actually listened to me for [...]

- The Leader Who Had No Title October 10, 2010
  Since I wrote Leadership From Below in 2008, there has been a steady flow of management books about bottom-up leadership. In The Leader Who Had No Title (2010), speaker Robin Sharma has put together a modern fable on success in business and in life. There are no revolutionary insights in this book, but its speaks [...]

- The Slow Birth of Entreprenocracy: Part III October 5, 2010
  Taking forward the debate on Murray’s End of Management foray in WSJ recently, the new model is, in my view, not exactly Murray’s model. Instead, it is simply a hybrid of bureaucracy and entrepreneurship. Let’s call it entreprenocracy. A few weeks ago, I went to a wedding at Oriel College in Oxford, UK. We had a wonderful time [...]

- Stein’s Law and the Coming Crisis in Argentinean Wine May 14, 2013
  Stein’s Law, named for famed economist Herbert Stein, holds that if something cannot go on forever it will stop. Unsustainable trends ultimately yield to the inevitable in one way or another. Stein’s Law seems to be simply stating the obvious, but you would be surprised how many people find a way to ignore the obvious […]

  I’m pleased to announce that I’ll be returning to South Africa early next year to speak at VinPro Information Day on January 23, 2014. (You can read the agenda for the 2013 Information Day program here.) VinPro, the service organization for 3600 South African wine producer members, announced yesterday that it will merge with Wine […]

- Tasting Notes for Three Colorful New Wine Books May 7, 2013
  A number of new wine books arrived earlier this year. Sensing that I wouldn’t be able to find time to give reviews my full attention while in the final revision stages of Extreme Wine, I offered three of them to my university students for Spring Break reading. The only catch: they would have to write brief […]

- Yeasty boys: beard hair powers fermentation May 17, 2013
  Just catching up with this story…last fall, Rogue Ales in Oregon announced they had sourced a new yeast strain from an unusual place–the brewmaster’s beard! Given the huge correlation between the hirsute and the hipsters, beard yeast could be the yeast El Dorado for “natural” wines. I guess the only question would be if it [...]The post Yeasty boys: beard ha […]

- Proposed French wine tax baits chardonnay uprising May 14, 2013
  In 1789, the price of bread surged in France. And in heads rolled as a result. Another symbol of France–wine–is being threatened with a 1,000% tax increase. Will riots break out across the country? Who is the man with a set of grapes big enough to dare provoke the ire of the French winegrowers and [...]The post Proposed French wine tax baits chardonnay upris […]
