An initially delicious, then unpleasantly mousey Pet Nat in China, and a mousey low-SO2 red in Moldova, gave me the excuse to share this excellent piece on the subject by Simon Woolf

Low level brett acceptability *may* be debatable

Mousiness is not

St Laurent “The Verdict” Port is selling fast
, so far all vineyard tasters have bought a bottle !

[steve voysey @Vingeron]

Makes sense to me. Lock up carbon as a consequence of being successful

[steve voysey @Vingeron]

I could just stare at this for hours and say yes to any question asked of me. 😶

[Spade Oak Vineyard @Spade_Oak]

The only sensible solution to climate change I’ve seen. Use plants to move the carbon into the symbiotic fungi in the soil where it can be locked back up for tens of thousands of years as C. And you still farm for profit. The crop itself is a very short term C sink. #nzwine

[Andrew Voysey @AVoysey]

@FCOClimate How about enabling a powerful shift in food and farming practices whereby we improve farmer profitability and store carbon in agricultural soils? https://t.co/9WetudhlIj

So, yesterday I was lucky enough to travel to Motueka to learn a bit about hops and how they grow

@medickinson Are plastic bags a good way to lockup carbon? Just need a way to manufacture them from co2

[Tim Atkin @timatkin]

@quick_philip @jamiegoode @cox_home @robertjoseph @peter_pharos @laviolettawines @Fifth_Instar @GreatrixBrad @GheorgheArpent2 @JancisRobinson I praise SOME natural wines. But I’m agnostic at best about the natural wine movement, which too often accepts wine faults as a mark of something “genuine”.

Climate change: Can 12 billion tonnes of carbon be sucked from the air? ⁦@davidshukmanbbc⁩ what about the role of all agricultural soils? https://t.co/3z4HT7M0Rh https://t.co/cckwBF5Bsf

[New Zealand Wine @nzwine]

Happy #tempranilloday! New Zealand's handful of Tempranillo producers span the country, especially in warmer areas of Hawke's Bay & Waiheke Island. Wines have the Spanish red variety's robust, earthy character, alongside spicy rich fruit. Have you tried a NZ Tempranillo? #nzwine
