Marquis Wines
MarquisTV Episode 15: Nerd Corner
Leah Bickford talks about the newest section on our website, “Nerd Corner” – the most interesting, most unique, most rare wines in the country. Definitely not guaranteed to please a crowd, but more than likely to raise a few eyebrows, these wines are eccentric, weird and unique; so why not channel your inner wine nerd and enjoy knowing that you’re trying something truly different?
MarquisTV Episode14: John’s last day in Walla Walla
John takes us on a tour of Walla Walla, visiting some of his favourite spots and chatting about the Wine Industry’s huge effect on the town’s revival.
MarquisTV Episode 13: The Terroir of Walla Walla & Milton Freewater
John took a trip to Washington and Northern Oregon last month to have a look at some interesting vineyards and wineries; this will be the first of a few videos showing his trip around the area.
MarquisTV Episode 12: Ornellaia
John and Alessandro Lonardi, the Ambassador and Export Manager from Ornellaia sits down to taste some wines and have a chat! Apologies for the sound quality – it was extremely noisy in the store and we had to make some tweaks to quieten David’s booming voice down!
MarquisTV Episode 11: Antonelli San Marco, Montefalco
John chats to Filippo Antonelli, head winemaker at Antonelli San Marco, and tastes some of their amazing wines that we’re going to be getting in soon at Marquis Wine Cellars.
MarquisTV Episode 9: School House Zinfandel
John cracks open the School House Mescolanza Zinfandel. This venerable (some of the vines are well over 100 years old) mixed black field-blend derives its character from mountain-grown varieties: Zinfandel (76%), Petite Sirah (17%) and Carignan (7%).
MarquisTV Episode7 – Albariño!
John tastes some amazing Palacia de Fefiñanes Albariño and talks a bit about some great new Burgundy from Domaine Guillemot Michel, their 2012 Vire-Clesse.
