- C. C. Uhlenbeck on Indo-European, Uralic and Caucasian (2008)
- In his early years, C. C. Uhlenbeck was particularly interested in the problem of the Indo-European homeland (1895, 1897). He rejected Herman Hirt's theory (1892) that the words for 'birch', 'willow', 'spruce', 'oak', 'beech' and 'eel' point to Lithuania and its immediate surroundings and returned to Otto Schrader's view (1883, 1890) that the original homeland must rather be sought in southern Russia and may have included some of the later Germanic and Iranian territories. It is clear that the Mediterranean region and the area around the North Sea can safely be excluded because the arrival of the Indo-Europeans was comparatively recent here, as it was in Iran and the Indian subcontinent. It is difficult to be more specific within the limits of central and eastern Europe and central Asia. Uhlenbeck was impressed by the lexical correspondences between Indo-European and Semitic which had been adduced in favor of an eastern homeland but pointed out that borrowings from Semitic may have reached the Indo-Europeans through an intermediary. He agrees that the Indo-European words for trees and animals point to a moderate climate but questions the possibility of a more specific localization as well as the concept of homeland itself.
- Issues in Balto-Slavic accentology (2008)
- After the very well-organized Leiden conference for which we must be grateful to Tijmen Pronk, it seems appropriate for me to review some of the papers, as I did after the previous conferences in Zagreb and Copenhagen. The aim of this review is merely to point out some of the differences of opinion which require further debate.
- Rise and development of Slavic accentual paradigms (2009)
- It appears that the complexity of Slavic historical accentology is prohibitive for most non-specialists in the field. It may therefore be useful to approach the subject from a number of different angles in order to render it more accessible to a wider audience. In the following I shall discuss the separate accent paradigms and their development from the Late Balto-Slavic system, which is structurally similar to that of modern Lithuanian, up to the end of the Proto-Slavic period, when the system resembled what we find in modern Serbo-Croatian. The numbering of the stages 1.0 through 10.12 is the same as in my earlier publications (1989, 2003, 2005, 2006a, 2008b). For the rise and development of the accentual system up to the end of the Balto-Slavic period I may refer to my discussion (2006b, 2008a) of Olander's dissertation (2006). It resulted in a system of four major and two minor accent types.
- West Slavic accentuation (2009)
- At the time of the earliest reconstructible dialectal divergences, which belong to the Late Middle Slavic period of my chronology (stages 7.0 - 8.0 of Kortlandt 1989a, 2003, 2008), the West Slavic languages represented the most conservative part of the Slavic dialects (cf. Kortlandt 1982b: 191 and 2003: 231).
- All's well that ends well (2009)
- A few years ago, Jasanoff adopted the central tenet of my accentological theory, viz. that the Balto-Slavic acute was a stød or glottal stop, not a rising tone (cf. Kortlandt 1975, 1977, 2004, Jasanoff 2004a). Of course, nobody will believe Jasanoff's claim that he arrived at the same result independently thirty years after I published it and ten years after we discussed it when he came to Leiden to visit us. Though at the time he haughtily dismissed "the tangle of secondary hypotheses and "laws" that clutter the ground in the field of Balto-Slavic accentology" (Jasanoff 2004b: 171), he has now recognized the importance of Pedersen's law, Hirt's law, Winter's law, Meillet's law, Dolobko's law, Dybo's law and Stang's law and largely accepted my relative chronology of these accent laws, including the loss of the acute shortly before Stang's law (cf. Jasanoff 2008). He has also accepted my split of Pedersen's law into a Balto-Slavic and a Slavic phase (to which a Lithuanian phase must be added), my thesis that the tonal contours of Baltic and Slavic languages are post-Balto-Slavic innovations (cf. Jasanoff 2008: 344, fn. 10), and the rise of a tonal distinction on non-acute initial syllables before Dybo's law which I discussed at some length in my review (1978) of Garde's monograph (1976). This is great progress.
- Balto-Slavic accentuation revisited (2009)
- There is every reason to welcome the revised edition (2009) of Thomas Olander's dissertation (2006), which I have criticized elsewhere (2006). The book is very well written and the author has a broad command of the scholarly literature. I have not found any mistakes in Olander's rendering of other people's views. This makes the book especially useful as an introduction to the subject. It must be hoped that the easy access to a complex set of problems which this book offers will have a stimulating effect on the study of Balto-Slavic accentology.
- More on the chronology of Celtic sound changes (2009)
- Graham Isaac's recent monograph (2007) deals with the chronology of Celtic sound changes. Remarkably, the author completely disregards the relative chronology which I published 28 years earlier (1979). In the following I shall discuss the main issues on which our views differ.

Four days later, Ring was appointed by the Grayson County School Board as interim clerk of the works.
Grayson County Administrator Jonathan Sweet said the county opted to "terminate services with Mr. Ring as a means of saving significant amounts of money."
Reader finds little to compliment in grammar mistakes
I was just about to write a letter to compliment a reporter on his correct use of the word "complement" in his "Enterprise Zone" article in The Gazette of Sept. 16, when I read his article about Grayson County school construction in the Sept. 18 edtion.
In this article, he uses the word "complement" incorrectly. I then realized that he must use the word "complement" for both the word "complement" and the word "compliment."

SLIDESHOW: Newmarket have the edge over Royston to seal progress in Junior Vase
Posted: December 24, 2013|
Newmarket booked their place in round four of the Junior Vase after overcoming Royston 10-5 at home in a close-fought encounter.
The conditions meant it was never going to be a day for expansive, running rugby, while Newmarket had also made several changes to their side.
A Michael Reeves penalty saw them 3-0 ahead at the interval, although another penalty was missed just before the whistle to end the first half sounded.
Royston had two men sent to the sin bin during the first 40 minutes and Newmarket's Richard Harper was also yellow carded soon after the restart.
But they pushed further ahead when No 8 Ali Walker picked up the ball from the base of a scrum and powered over, with Reeves kicking the touchline conversion.
Royston managed to get on the board with an unconverted score and created several more chances, but Newmarket's defence kept them at bay as they progressed to the next stage.
Newmarket first-team manager Gareth Godfrey admitted it was not a great performance, but was happy just still be involved in the Vase.
"The best thing you can say about the game is that we won," said Godfrey.
"A win is a win in the cup. At the start of December, we were targeting three wins out of three and we've got them, and we're top of the league and into the next round of the cup.
"This game came on the back of two very hyped league matches and we seemed to be a bit flat in this one."
He added: "We've been in the divisional final a few times, but never won it. We'd like to get through that and be involved in the national stages."

ICBA Bancard: Loyal Card Issuers Yield Big Returns
Bancard Program Participants Receive Rebates
Washington, D.C. (April 24, 2009)—ICBA Bancard, the payment services subsidiary of the Independent Community Bankers of America, today announced community banks earned more than $233 million in card revenue through its credit and debit card programs.
"ICBA Bancard is always looking for ways to give back to community banks. Our card issuers have not only seen substantial earnings in card revenue, we've also rewarded them for their loyalty to our programs," said Charles Saeman, chairman of ICBA Bancard and president and CEO of State Bank of Cross Plains in Cross Plains, Wis. "Loyal ICBA Bancard issuers were awarded almost $2.9 million in rebates this year. Community banks participating in our Partnership Growth Program have already received $2.5 million, and we've committed to paying out $4.8 million more."
In addition to loyalty rebates, ICBA Bancard credit card issuers experienced sales of $4.8 billion, while debit card issuers had sales volume of more than $6 billion, for a total of $11 billion for program participants last year.
"We are especially pleased to have had such a positive impact on our card issuers' bottom lines during the current operating environment," Saeman said.
"ICBA Bancard exists to support the payments needs of community banks," said Linda Echard, ICBA Bancard president and CEO. "We offer a variety of programs that help community banks monitor, measure and grow their portfolios."
The rebates are based on the total sales volume for cards processed through ICBA Bancard's programs with Fidelity National Information Services and for participation in the program for five years or more.

The popeyed goldfish is a rare fish in the Animal Crossing series found in the river. It sells for 1,300 Bells in Tom Nook's Store and appears all year, during the hours of 9 AM to 4 PM. Its shadow size is tiny, and it is diurnal meaning it is only found in the daylight hours.
It's rarity at the right time of the day is just about equal to that of the goldfish and the guppy, leaving the catch rate of a tiny fish in the day time at around 33% (this is excluding the common loach in spring, bitterling during winter, killifish in GCN and neon tetra in Animal Crossing: City Folk). It is frequently one of the last fish to find in many players' games.
Donating to the Museum
As with all fish caught in Animal Crossing series, the popeyed goldfish can be donated to the museum in each game by talking to Blathers, who will also give some information on it.
In Animal Crossing
Upon donation, Blathers the curator will say:
"Those adorable little fins! Those huge, googly eyes! Even I am helpless in the face of their cuteness! We will take special care of this precious fellow. Welcome to your new home, you darling little fishy!"
In Wild World
Upon donation, Blathers the curator will say:
"You should know, the eyes on the popeyed goldfish can occasionally pop out! There's nothing wrong, of course, and if you let the fish be, they go back in. Even so, the first time I witnessed it, MY eyes nearly popped out, wot wot!"
In City Folk
Upon donation, Blathers the curator will say:
"Popeyed goldfish look like any other ordinary goldfish whilst still juveniles. As they begin to mature, their eyes bulge outward and gradually assume that distinctive appearance. Imagine how appalled you'd be if you brought one home thinking it was a normal goldfish...".
In New Leaf
In New Leaf, an information board in the aquarium will list information about this fish.
"They're known for their protruding eyes, as the name indicates, but this feature is actually a detriment. Their vision is quite poor, to the point that they will swim past food and frequently bump into things. They are a type of goldfish and get their distinguishing eye pop about two months after birth."
Encyclopedia Information
Animal Forest
| "Popeyed Goldfish"
Wild World
| ''Though their eyes are big, their vision are poor."
City Folk
| ''Though these have big eyes, their vision is quite poor. They use to look like ordinary goldfish, but as they age, they turn darker and their eyes bug out."
New Leaf
Further InformationCarassius auratus, the Goldfish, a close relative to the Crucian Carp, has been domestically bred into an array of different shapes, sizes and colors. The Popeyed Goldfish breed is a harmless fish that once released lives in slow-flowing ponds, ditches, rivers, and lakes. It is a specially bred type of Goldfish with large, protruding eyes, which to the surprise of some gives it poor eyesight as a result of heavy inbreeding. In the market and aquarium the black variety are frequently known as Black Moor or Telescope Goldfish, and in Japan itself it is called Demekin.
All Goldfish, being in the genus Carassius, share a relation with the more commonplace Carp and the Koi. It feeds off of small insects, crustaceans, and plants. In China, it is called the dragon-eye. The species name "auratus" refers to the natural gold-scaled form that can be found in this species.
Popeyed Goldfish are known for having three different types of eyes depending on its ancestry.
- In Animal Crossing and Animal Crossing: New Leaf, this fish's pun references the comic strip Popeye, where the sailor named Popeye is known for eating spinach.

A "Pink Out" Planned For Saturday at Colonial
It wasn't just John Daly's pants or Rory Sabbatini's shirt that were tributes to Amy Mickelson and her fight against breast cancer ... tour wives have got involved and have urged players and wives to wear pink on Saturday in an all-out "Pink Out" at the Colonial.
In a memo being circulated at Colonial, the group is asking all players and wives to take part in a "Pink Out" on Saturday by wearing pink to show support for Amy Mickelson.
The association is working with title sponsor Crowne Plaza and the Susan G. Komen Foundation to raise awareness of breast cancer.
So, in an effort to do a small part for the Mickelsons, I urge anyone and everyone heading to the Colonial on Saturday to wear something pink so that this really does make an impact.
If you don't own a pink shirt to sport on Saturday, I can only say that between the years 2002-04, you probably weren't very cool.

Subtle satisfaction
As a person who does a lot of high output activity I find myself in constant need of hydration but after a while water alone gets boring and uninspiring. That is where these come in. I actually like them really diluted so I just pop 1 or 2 into my 64oz hydration bladder and call it good. It is just enough of a taste to encourage me without being overpowering. I will also drink a concentrated beverage at the beginning of the day to preload my h2o needs and be sure to have some electrolytes on board.

AT&T Says NYC is 'Not Ready' For the iPhone [UPD]
AT&T says that NYC doesn't have enough towers to handle the iPhone.
Those if you in New York City trying to get an iPhone by ordering from AT&T online will know that it's just not possible right now. For one reason or another, those trying to buy online using a New York City zip code will find that the iPhone is not available in their area.
The Consumerist did some digging behind such claims and verified that AT&T has frozen online sales of the iPhone in NYC. (It does seem, however, that retail sales are continuing as normal.) The following is an online help desk conversation between the Consumerist's Laura Northrup and AT&T sales support:
Daphne: Welcome to AT&T online Sales support. How may I assist you with placing your order today?
Laura: Hi, I was looking at the iPhone 3Gs and the system tells me that I cannot order one in my ZIP code. My zip code is 11231. (Brooklyn, NY) Is this true? Are iPhones no longer available in New York City?
Daphne: I am happy to be helping you today . Yes, this is correct the phone is not offered to you because New York is not ready for the iPhone.
Daphne: You don't have enough towers to handle the phone.
Laura: Thank you for your help. So the phone is not available to people anywhere in the city?
Daphne: Yes this is correct Laura.
This sort of news is startling in light of service complaints in U.S. cities such as NYC and San Francisco – where there are high concentrations of iPhone users.
AT&T responded by issuing the statement, "We periodically modify our promotions and distribution channels," which basically tells us nothing other than confirming that sales have indeed been frozen in NYC.
Update: it appears that New York City is once again ready for the iPhone, as online sales via AT&T's website are now possible again for those living in the city that never sleeps.
I can't wait for the next Verizon commercial to talk about this one! lol
Wow! And this is one of the cities that they SAY they have great 3G coverage in...... Talk about shooting yourself in the foot! Way to go ATT! Soooo, I guess that means your commercials aren't really factual?
I find it funny that people know that in NYC an iphone is worthless but, they still insist on having one anyway.

7nicklasd87 , December 28, 2009 1:42 PMugh...ATT needs to get its act together...It seems to me that ATT is trying to stall the market wrather than adapting to it...Being an ATT customer I am very hesitant about renewing my contract when it expires due to this assumption.
7subliminalaffect , December 28, 2009 1:42 PMIt's about time that att gets their just desserts by having their shady business practices and bloated, overpriced and underperforming services exposed. This company has been trash over the past decade and more and more of the public is waking up to this via verizon's help and their own self deterioration thanks to greed. God bless the Iphone!!!
10atticus052 , December 28, 2009 1:43 PM"We're suing you Verison, we have great 3G coverage, oh but not for you New York."
Wow! And this is one of the cities that they SAY they have great 3G coverage in...... Talk about shooting yourself in the foot! Way to go ATT! Soooo, I guess that means your commercials aren't really factual?
12bollwerk , December 28, 2009 1:50 PMThe iphone is not worthless. AT&T is.
0Glorian , December 28, 2009 1:53 PMThe iphone would kill any network in high concentration cities filled with yuppies who feel they need to have the latest trend electronics. Even if AT&T was ready it is still amazing the amount of people who "need" this novelty.
I also think they are taking "NY isn't ready" a bit too serious, because it is in fact AT&T that's not ready. It's like someone asking me if I finished building a house and I respond "no the house isn't ready" its not the house fault it's not built it's mine.
2jjchmiel78 , December 28, 2009 2:00 PMI find it hilarious that ever since Verizon started a major advertising campaign against AT&T, that all AT&T seems to do is shoot themselves in the foot. They need new management yesterday, a new advertising agency now, and really start doing something. Keep shooting themselves in the foot at the pace they have since November and they won't have the business to worry about articles like this in a year or two. iPhone may be cool, but is not the magic wand to let AT&T get away with whatever they want and save their company.
9sliem , December 28, 2009 2:05 PMThere's a map for that
7Abrahm , December 28, 2009 2:18 PMThis is awesome. The more people AT&T pisses off, the more people that will see beyond the trendy glamor and move on to the superior android system.
Let the rise of the android system to dominance commence!
2jonathan1683 , December 28, 2009 2:21 PMI wish apple would allow other carriers to have to iphone to help carry the burden.
-4bydesign , December 28, 2009 2:21 PMIt's NY isn't that state bankrupt anyway along with that other home of liberal nonsense.
7gwellin , December 28, 2009 2:28 PMActully if you pay attention to the AT&T commercials. They say they have coverage to over 98% of the people. That statement says nothing about 3G coverage. They are just saying 98% of people in the US have some cell phone coverage with AT&T. That is why verizon can get away with saying the have over 5x the 3G coverage.
0captaincharisma , December 28, 2009 2:34 PMwhy would the biggest city in the USA have the fewest towers in the country? who has the most towers then? a small town in Alabama? and i'm sure it is elementary to everyone that the most iphone sales in the USA would be from new york.
0captaincharisma , December 28, 2009 2:36 PMjonathan1683I wish apple would allow other carriers to have to iphone to help carry the burden.
they already did it for Canada. every wireless carrier here sells the iphone now.
0sunflier , December 28, 2009 2:39 PMDang you El_Capitan!!! You stole my comment. +1 for you.
7jerreece , December 28, 2009 2:41 PMThis just in:
"NYC says AT&T is not ready for the iPhone..."

When you have an area that is extremely densely populated, numerically you don't need as many "towers" to provide signal for the area. Plus they can put "towers" on top of buildings, so terrain and landscape aren't issues.
Where as in more rural type cities, hills and mountains seem to get in the way. And since in other cities growth goes outward (as opposed to up and down) you have to provide more towers to cover the area. It would make sense to me if NYC didn't numerically have a lot of towers. They just have towers crammed with transmitters, etc.
4mcshasta , December 28, 2009 2:56 PMThe money for the towers went to Luke Wilson and the lawsuit against Verizon's truthful commercials. Oh the irony.....

The numbers: Why we work for cleaner energy
Demand for energy is growing, and we need to get smarter about making, moving and using it.
Why worry about rising energy use?
- 65% of pollution that causes global warming comes from energy generation and use 1
- 50%of pollution must be cut by 2050 to avoid catastrophic changes to climate 2
What we can do about it
Reducing harmful pollution is possible — if we use clean energy. We are working to speed up the transition to cleaner, more reliable energy.
Our power grid needs an overhaul
- $150 billion is lost each year to power outages and blackouts in the U.S. 4
- $2 trillion will be spent in the next 20 years to replace our antiquated electricity infrastructure 5
What we can do about it
We are working to make sure that investment is well-spent on a smarter grid, one that's far more capable of using renewable power sources and modern technology compared to the current grid.
Cutting waste can save big money
- $400 billion spent each year to power U.S. homes and commercial buildings. 6
- $80 billion could be saved each year if we trimmed that energy use by 20% 6
What we can do about it
EDF Climate Corps train and place students in fellowships with companies, cities and universities. The students champion energy efficiency, building the business case for changes and investments.

Feb. 1 was the live telecast of the 44th Annual NAACP Image Awards and Kerry attended the star studded event alongside her parents. Kerry was nominated for her roles on the small and big screen in, Scandal (as Washington, D.C. fixer Olivia Pope) & Django Unchained (as Broomhilda, a slave and wife of titular character Django) and she won both of them. Kerry's off-screen humanitarian efforts were also recognized as she was presented with the President's Award. Kerry gave some amazing speeches that night and I'll have videos for you soon.

Apple makes Find my iPhone free
As part of their iOS 4.2 announcement and as previously rumored, Apple has also announced that they're making the Find my iPhone feature of MobileMe free for all users:
The Find My iPhone (or iPad or iPod touch) feature is now free to use without a MobileMe℠ subscription and helps you locate your missing device.* The Find My iPhone app is a free download on the App Store℠ and lets users easily locate a missing device on a map and have it display a message or play a sound. Users can even remotely lock or wipe data from a lost device to protect privacy.
*The free Find My iPhone feature is available for iPhone 4, iPad or new iPod touch (4th generation).
You can still use Find my iPhone on older iPhones and iPod touches but the account has to be set up on a 2010 model first. Either express your delight at having the new free service -- or your outrage at being inconveni -- in the comments!

Apple makes Find my iPhone free
No support for anything but iPhone 4 (and 4th gen iPod Touch)? WTF, Apple?!?
Awesome! That's the only reason why I would get a mobileme account.
No outrage - I think we're all (3GS and earlier users) used to Jobs being a colossal douche when it comes to new functionality and excluding previous customers, all in the quest for his next money fix. Totally expected. I'm surprised we even got iOS 4.2. I love my iPhone, but Android looks better on a weekly basis. Anything to monetarily express to Jobs how sick of being screwed early iDevice users are.
Not surprising. Been an Apple fanboy for awhile now but just jumped over to WP7. Yeah, their location feature set isn't as good as Apple's but hey, it's free along with mobile wipe, lock and ring. So I can see why Apple would release such an update...I mean who wants to be shown up by Microsoft. Leaving 3GS owners in the dust is a crappy move though. I'm still jonesin' for more apps on WP7 and hoping I don't fold and go to iPhone 4.
Man you babies need to stop complaining about the service not being available to the 3Gs or older phones! I just upgraded my 3G to an iPhone 4 for free! I sold my old 3G on eBay for the same price as buying a new iP4! In fact I used my PayPal card to buy the iP4 in the Apple store! There's no reason to not upgrade! The 3Gs is worth even more on eBay then my old 16GB 3G you could get a 32GB iP4 for the price of selling your 16GB 3Gs! No disadvantages, I love my iPhone, I love AT&T, everything works, and it works perfectly. That is, it works perfectly for how I want to use it, and where I use it. (3G turned off, screen brightness down, no Bluetooth, wifi on @home & @work, basic phone use, some browsing, checking email, and occasionally playing solitaire.)
...and next year when you have the iPhone 5 and I'm "stuck" with my 4 for another year, you will get cool features and updates that I will not be able to take advantage of. The difference is that I won't be on the forums whining about it - I'll just be thinking about how wickedly awesome my iPhone 6 will be, with all of the 5's features you will be enjoying plus who knows what else. Of course then you will eventually get the 7...
Not too upset. I already pay for MobileMe with my iPhone 3G.
Screw apple and steve jobs it a descriminaation of 3G and 3GS iphone owners the pushhing us to buy new iphone 4. I had enough of that BS I am switching to Android everything is free and for all.
@Screw apple, things in the Android are not all for free, not any more free than they are on Apple. That said, I do think that Apple should make the Find Me service available on all phones.
I have set up a free MobileMe account on my iPhone 4 to get Find My iPhone (works great, love this feature!) and used the same Apple ID to set it up on my wife's iPhone 3GS, and it works just fine!
Actually Apple's web site (subtly) tells us to do so: check the footnote at the bottom of www.apple.com/iphone/features/find-my-iphone.html
And I read on Apple's forums that you can actually get a refund of your MobileMe account if you want, so that seems fair to me!
Who is John Galt?
It was your choice to buy and keep an apple 3 or 3G device. It is apples choice as a private corporation to only offer services to iPhone 4 users. How is this a problem? Two private entities don't owe eachother anything.

Chateau Haut-Brion Bahans-Haut-Brion 2005
Bordeaux Red Blends from Pessac-Leognan, Bordeaux, France
Winemaker's Notes
Grown on the same land as Château Haut-Brion, Château Bahans Haut-Brion, profits from the same planting and harvest techniques, and has the advantage of the same rigorous selection and thoroughness in vinification as the "Grand Vin".
Bahans Haut-Brion is aged partly in new barrels and partly in barrels that have been used for the previous year's First Growth.
Undoubtedly, this Second Wine of a First Classified Growth, Château Bahans Haut-Brion, is a great wine on its own merits.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "Soft and balanced, showing lovely velvety tannins and lots of coffee, chocolate, toasty oak and mushroom character, with bright fruit underneath. Full-bodied, round and unctuous. The second wine of Haut-Brion. Best after 2013. 9,580 cases made"
Wine Enthusiast - "The second wine of Chateau Haut-Brion is firm, mirroring its grand vin. It is dark, brooding and dense, rounded by ripe fruits. There is also an edge of bitter chocolate that offers an intriguing counterpoint to the elegance of the fruit."
International Wine Cellar - "Deep red-ruby. Sexy aromas of black raspberry, smoke and minerals. Fat, plush and seamless in the mouth, with a nicely restrained sweetness to the slowly mounting flavors of raspberry and smoke. The compelling ripeness and sweetness of fruit of the vintage come through loud and clear on the back end."

Chateau Haut-Brion Winery
Château Haut-Brion is the oldest and by far the smallest of the "Premiers Grands Crus" vineyards of the Gironde 1855 classification. Château Haut-Brion is one of the few remaining family-owned domains of the Bordeaux region with a history going back to the 16th century. It has been owned by the American Dillon family since 1935. View all Chateau Haut-Brion Wines
About Pessac-LeognanView a map of Pessac-Leognan wineries (PEH-sak lay-ohn-yawn)
One of the top appellations within Graves, Pessac-Léognan is home to the only Graves chateau listed as a first growth in the 1855 Médoc classification – Chateau Haut-Brion. In fact, praise for the chateau dates back to the days of Thomas Jefferson, when, upon visiting the chateau in 1787, he bought 125 bottles for his cellar in Virginia.
Notable Facts
The majority of wines made here are red, but Pessac-Léognan is also known for producing some of the finest dry white wines of Bordeaux. Many of the top chateau, like Chateau Haut Brion and Chateau Mission Haut Brion, produce top-quality whites alongside their red. Other Chateaux, like Smith Haut Lafite and Carbonnieux, are better known for their distinguished white wines than reds. Both colors of wine from this region have the specific tastes of the gravelly soil where it's grown.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.
Customer ReviewsSign In to Add Your Review4 }div>
Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
