Josh Jambon On the Importance of Grapes in Wine
Making

• Josh Jambon is highly-skilled business person who
  in his free time enjoys scotch and quality wine.
• Grapes are the foundation of every wine. They
  dictate the structure of the wine and they are
  the foundation of everything that a winemaker
  will later do to the wine.
• The alcohol in your wine comes from grapes. The
  color of the wine comes from grapes. The taste
  largely depends on the variety of grapes, too.

• Grape variety mans the fruit of a certain kind of
  grapevine. For example, a fruit of the Cabernet
  Sauvignon wine or a fruit of the Chardonnay vine.
  
• There are over ten thousand of grape varieties in
  the world. It the wines from all these varieties
  were commercially available, you could drink a
  new kind of wine every day for over twenty-seven
  years!
• However, most of the grape varieties are obscure
  grapes that arent a good base for a wine. Grape
  varieties differ from each other in all sorts of
  features and attributes.

• These differences can be divided into two
  categories personality and performance.
  Personality factors are the traits of the fruit
  itself.
• Flavor is an example of a personality factor.
  Performance traits have to deal with how quickly
  the fruit grows, ripen and so on .
• Skin color is the biggest distinction among grape
  varieties. Every variety is either white or red
  even though white grapes are yellow and not
  white, and red grapes are often called black.

• Individual varieties differ from each other in
  the aroma, levels of acidity, thickness of skin
  and fruit size.
• For example, black grapes with thick skins
  contain more tannin that varieties with thin
  skins.
• When grapes arent ripe, they contain little
  sugar and a lot of acids, which also holds true
  for any other fruit.
• As the ripening process progresses, grapes become
  sweeter and less acidic. Their flavors and aromas
  become more complex. Their skins start getting
  thinner and even the seeds become ripe
