Winopedia
PYRAZINES:
an aroma
compound found
in some grapes
that gives vegetal
aromas and
flavours, such as
green bell pepper
or jalapeno pepper.
STEM INCLUSION:
a wine-making
practice that
involves keeping
the grapes on the
stems instead of
destemming them
before processing
the fruit. This
adds a textural
component to the
wine while also
adding green and
herbal notes.
To achieve the best
wine pairings,
the entire dish —
including how the
asparagus will be
cooked —should
be factored into
the equation.
