Wine Screen Shots Wine is a program that allows Windows programs to run under other x86 operating systems without necessarily having to have Windows. Although Wine is not in itself a GUI, it can run a certain application program that Microsoft has made central to their GUI.

Posted 12/27/04 - The latest issue of Wine Spectator arrived today with their Top 100 Wines of the Year (by Classic-Scoring of 2004), plus the Wine of the Year (the Most Exciting of 2004). Unfortunately, Gewürztraminers weren't well represented at all; the Zind-Humbrecht Gewurztraminer Alsace Grand Cru Gueberschwihr Goldert Vendange Tardive 2002 at 96 pts, a $120/bottle with a mere 175 cases produced, and the Zind-Humbrecht Gewurztraminer Alsace Grand Cru Rangen de Thann Clos St.-Urbain 2002 at 95 pts, a $98/bottle and 1,050 cases produced vintage were the only ones to make the list, and that was in the Classic-Scoring. The issue ... listed the "10 Years of Top 10's", and the only times a Gewürztraminer made this list was in 1994, #6 at 96 pts, the Zind-Humbrecht Gewurztraminer Alsace Grand Cru Goldert Vendange Tardive 1990 ($45/bottle). Domaine Zind- Humbrecht can be proud of their achievements, but Gewürztraminer as a whole has taken a very deep back-seat to the rest of the wine world.

Sulfites in Wine - All wines contain at least some small amount of sulfites. They are a natural result of the same fermentation process that turns grape juice into alcohol. Even wines that have not had any sulfites added during the winemaking process contain some amount of sulfites. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is used by winemakers to keep freshly pressed must from spoiling. It keeps down the activities of native yeast and bacteria and preserves the freshness of the wine.

Wine is characterized by color: white, pink or rose, and red, and it can range in alcohol content from 10 percent to 14 percent. Wine types can be divided into four broad categories: table wines, sparkling wines, fortified wines, and aromatic wines. Table wines include a range of red, white, and rose wines; sparkling wines include champagne and other "bubbly" wines; aromatic wines contain fruits, plants, and flowers; and fortified wines are table wines with brandy or other alcohol added.
