FWIW, there's no question that the health benefits of red wine arise from more than just the resveratrol in there. Other isoflavonoids such as quercitin are also present in red wine and have also been shown to have positive health benefits, though none so spectacular as those of resveratrol. This study now shows that protoanthocyanins (condensed tannins) are also good for you, but I will wait to see if they also show the effects on lifespan that have made resveratrol such a hot item.

Since much of the tannin in older wines ends up in the sediment, perhaps we need to eat the sediment :-) . I guess one could dry the sediment and pack it into capsules to avoid the taste of it. Of course one would need tests to see if the portion of the sediment coming from tannins still retains the health benefits of tannins in solution in the wine. |

Sediments normally become pills, swallowed by new-age hippies that don't drink... I'd recommend shaking up the f****** bottle and drinking DOWN that resveratrol WORM. David p.s. sorry, had a very bad day. |

At least we'll all be happier in the process. I can see the spate of articles in the NG, now: "I really, really hate wine! Which wine can you suggest for me, that will give me ALL of the health benefits... ?" Maybe time to add something along these lines to the FAQ? Mark, are you ready to do a "white paper?" OTOH, maybe I'll have TWO Ports, with my coffee (some say that IT is supposed to have health benefits) and my cigar! Hunt PS this will probably lead to a marked increase in the consumption of red wine in the US and higher prices for us all. Or, I'll start getting e-mails, where the Viagra (R) will be replaced by some minor Bdx. Ch. offering? |

Funny that you should mention that today. Today I've been discussing with collaborators how we should publish our first paper on resveratrol. I've made some analogues that are more potent in a number of different assays. Mark Lipton |

Hi All,
Are Madiran's imported into the US? How about Domaine Laffont Madiran? Are Sardinia Nuoro Cannonau? How about Cannonau di Jerzu? Any comments on recent tastings?

Shades of taste-free garlic capsules! If there ever was a silly idea... Andrew. |

Don't know the Italians. Laffont is sometimes seen in US, I have the
'97 Laffont Madiran, tannins galore- good for health, but hard to swallow! |

Which one do you have? 1) "VIEILLES-VIGNES" has 100% TANNAT 2) "TRADITION" has 80 % TANNAT, 10 % CABERNET FRANC, 10 % CABERNET SAUVIGNON 3) "Joris Laffitte" has 60 % TANNAT, 20 % CABERNET FRANC, 20 % CABERNET SAUVIGNON http://www.chateau-laffitte-teston.c...iran_intro.htm How long to cellar til ripe? At least the medicine is cheap! Regards, Phil |

I was referring to Laffont. I also seem to have a bottle of
Lafitte-Teston (1998), but no indicator other than Madiran. I assume either old vines or tradtion. I apparently thought it needed time, but it's in my secondary storage (not as accessbile, stacks of boxes). Guess I should dig out to more accurately indicate in Cellartracker what I have. Looks like there's a CdRhone that probably needs to be removed from that case anyway. |

Hi Dale and All,
Have you tried any Uruguayan Tannat wines, similar to the SW Madiran appelation? See a fancy Uruguayan syndicate website, http://www.tannatland.com As an up&coming vino industry, they sure seem to have their world act together. [I have yet to find a Alain Brumont, Bouscasse, Montus website] >From my first pass, an interesting Tannat to consider is Carlos Pizzorno,Bodega, http://www.pizzornowines.com/english/index.html Don Prospero Tannat Reserva 2004, 6 wks in vat, Gold Medal Vinalies Paris Any tasting comments? A winestore in Minneapolis has a Uy Tannat and a Montus! Regards, Phil ===== DaleW wrote: > I was referring to Laffont.
