Matthew’s taking the week off. Here’s a round-up of some great columns from the Short Cellar cellar.

Biodynamic wine is so crazy, it just might work (June 24, 2010): Why a process that seems to be “nothing but New-Age pseudoscience” nevertheless produces some great wines.

Instant wine expert (June 4, 2009): Want to “sample dozens of wines, comparing varietals, vintages and styles in a way that is impossible by merely walking into the liquor store”? It’s easy; just plan a tour of some Ontario wineries.

Wine with an accent (October 14, 2010): Canada is nowhere near the top of the list of wine-producing countries in terms of volume. Seems like as good a reason as any to sample bottles from seemingly obscure places that make more wine than we do.
