Burgundy but maybe focus on my original fav Gevrey-Chambertin.
"At least on my side" Come on Agnese, what a cryptic statement. Don't be so secretive 😄 Did you like the region but they didn't like you, or am I being bullied into buying Jura in the nicest way possible? 🤣
Like your vidios very interesting
Love the Jerez call! As the weather gets colder, I also like to pair oxidatively aged sherries w heartier meat dishes. Am actually going there next week so you are getting me even more psyched up for my trip.
Hey Agnes, thank you for the recommendations. Speaking of wines and winter, you should share your recipe for mulled wine 🙂
sveiki, Agnese! your list is interesting and definitely unusual – I was expecting a few more obvious picks like Amarone or Châteauneuf du Pape, or maybe an Austrian red. it's been a long time since I last drank a Trousseau and now you left me craving for one.
as for Grüner Veltliner, let me suggest you a Hungarian one: the Premium Zöld Veltelini from Hungarian winemaker Steigler (Germanic name) from Sopron (a stone throw away from Austria). oaked whites are currently a trend in Hungary, and while many producers try to follow the steps and steep prices of Burgundy, some others, like Steigler, give local grapes the barrique treatment and get some great results. not your usual Grüner Veltliner but sasodīti lieliski anyway!
Lebanese Syrah!
I’ll be opening my first Saperavi from Georgia, Tannat from Uruguay, German Muller Thurgau (sparkling) and Ribera del Duero at my fall wine night with the ladies in my neighborhood.
I have never tried unfortified Jerez, that sounds so exciting – will be on the lookout! Lovely list.
To be honest, there is no winter in my region, so I drink the same wines in winter and summer😊But I would say, that with some exclusions, in autumn/winter, I usually prefer more Reds than Whites and in summer the opposite. 😊. Red Burgundy, Red Etna, Barolo, or Barbaresco are always great options. Some opulent, full-bodied Whites can also go well.
So awesome, you mention Muscadet.
It's such an underrated and wonderful wine region. I am not saying because some of my family comes from there😅
Speaking of famous Austrian GV wineries, how is the Domane Wachau for its Riesling Smaragd Ried Achleiten (2022 vintage)?
And it seems with a 71% drop in wine production this year (2024) from Jura (from weather and mildew) , they could be even more expensive
🤔In the cold seasons I prefer fuller and sweeter desserts, Somehow in that period I always find a purchase from Germany that makes me happy. It is not a specific grape, but more a selection of grapes that are picked especially for this wine… I think it is usually a Riesling. For me, a nice Beerenauslese often Dances in my glass during the cold period while enjoying my dessert…. By the way, Nice question, something I would normally never consider to overthink 😊 Merci, and have a nice day!
Love your videos! Keep them coming!
Did you pass the master of wine exam?
Have you tried this champagne?

Love to see appretiation for Gruner Veltliner, its a favorite of mine. So versatile and perfect with food and cheese. Also loved seeing you meet up with the Unico Zelo/Wine for the People guys in a recent video.
One cool chick!
I probably won’t be drinking anything because every time I go to buy wine to drink, I buy something that won’t be ready to drink until the time I’m back in diapers.
I also weirdly love drinking white wine in winter!
Living in Singapore we don't have a cold season, but will try these wines anyway and crank up the Aircon!! Great work by you as usual. THANK YOU.
Your suggestions are always worth a taste. I will be looking for something from Jerez and Aragon. Thanks for the tips 🥂
I am a big fan for Aragon Garnacha, but have not tried Bodegas Frontonio; thanks for the pointer!
Got intrigued about Crystallum wines yesterday. Some said it’s a poor man’s DRC. So I will see if I can find some for winter.
I also like unfortified sherry, I can easily get the ones from Equipo Navazos where I live, they also make a dry unfortified one from PX grapes.
orange wine to match the leaves
I know this is random but I love the inclusion of your dog in these videos
I enjoy drinking earthy Pinot Noirs in September, German Reislings in October, Tawny Ports in November, and Bordeaux in December.
Hi can you let me know how long should I leave champagne in the fridge before I serve it? You suggested in one of the videos not to serve it to cold. Please let me know, thanks
Also I don’t have a wine cellar, where should I store my champagne In my home?
You will be presently surprised findings good examples of Muscadet sur lie for the price starts from 4.8€. Viva la France
I must be the only person that cares very little about seasons and wines I am drinking. I am on Saperavi, from January to December😄
The unfortified wines from Jerez are very interesting and are Palamino varieties. Have you tried Ximenez Spinola? They come from Jerez but use exclusively Pedro Ximenez grapes in their delicious wines. The unfortified wines in this style also come from Montilla in the Cordoba region where the PX grape is used for all their expressions. Another fun fact is that they don't have to fortify their Fino, Amonillado, etc, as they reach the required strength naturally.
Best Autumn Wine 🍷 Video Upload Ever Agnese! ❤❤
Great video and amazing picks for fall! Muscadet is a favorite of mine as well. Very unique and complex, and some examples can be aged quite a long time. Two years ago I had a 2003 vintage muscadet, and it was still surprisingly vibrant and delicious for its age.
I'd like to make a suggestion for another great white wine for fall: Franz Hirtzberger Chardonnay Smaragd. This was an extremely unique bottle, and unlike any chardonnay I've ever tried. It had a very slick & oily mouthfeel, with botrytis influence, pear, citrus oil, and even some banana notes before a long stony finish.
