"Det jeg bare mente var at med stilkene er det som så meget andet i Bourgogne, de har en lemfældig omgang med sande facts :-)"
Det har du nok ret i. Altid godt med noget insiderviden til at moderere vore illusioner :-) Jeg giver gerne en øl. Det må være rimeligt, efter have udsat dig for pest og kolera (Messerschmidt og Pilgaard). Men skulle vore veje en dag krydses, vil der jo nok umiddelbart være vin på bordet?
Fandt lige lidt interessante overvejelser omkring det med de hele klaser:
An element of carbonic maceration is an important part of whole bunch ferments. The intracellular fermentation that occurs in any intact berries will produce interesting aromatic elements, and the slow, gradual release of sugar into the ferment will change its dynamics. Together with this, the reduced temperature of whole bunch ferments is likely to have some effect on the resulting wine, usually in a positive direction. There may also be some direct flavour input from the stem material to the wine, which can be both good and bad, depending on the state of the stems. And the slight rise in pH that occurs with whole bunch may increase the susceptibility of the wine to Brettanomyces, but at the same time may improve the mouthfeel.
The benefits of whole bunch? One is textural: it seems to deliver a textural smoothness or silkiness that is really attractive, especially in Pinot Noir. Along with this, the tannic structure may be increased. I find that young whole bunch reds often have a grippy, spicy tannic edge that can sometimes be confused with the structural presence of new oak. Frequently cited as a benefit of whole bunch is the enhanced aromatic expression of the wine, and it’s common to find an elevated, sappy green, floral edge to the pronounced fruity aromas which is really attractive. Freshness is another positive attribute associated with whole bunch. Done well, whole cluster can help make wines that are more elegant than their totally destemmed counterparts. I would add that whole bunch wines sometimes start out with distinctive flavours and aromas that can be a little surprising (tasting terms associated with whole bunch include broccoli, soy sauce, compost, mulch, forest floor, herbal, green, black tea, cedar, menthol, cinnamon), but these often resolve nicely with time in bottle.

Just think of the trees: they let the birds perch and fly, with no intention to call them when they come and no longing for their return when they fly away. If people's hearts can be like the trees, they will not be off the Way
