DWWA has a track record of shining a spotlight on exciting, under-the-radar wines all over the wine world, too – and 2021 proved no exception.
DWWA 也一直關注著葡萄酒世界中令人興奮、鮮為人知的葡萄酒——事實證明，2021 年也不例外。
DWWA 2021: A year of firsts
DWWA 2021：首創之年
DWWA 2021 included a first Best in Show medal for a ‘Vin Jaune’ – or ‘yellow wine’ – a speciality of the Jura region of eastern France. The winning wine was Domaine Berthet-Bondet, Château-Chalon 2013, made from 100% Savagnin.
DWWA 2021 包括法國東部侏羅地區特產“Vin Jaune”或“黃酒”的首個最佳展示獎。獲獎葡萄酒是 2013 年 Château-Chalon 酒莊 Berthet-Bondet，由 100% Savagnin 釀製。
DWWA 2021 judges included in their tasting notes, “If you’ve never tried Vin Jaune, you couldn’t do better than begin with this 2013.
DWWA 2021 評委在他們的品酒筆記中寫道：“如果您從未嘗試過 Vin Jaune，那麼從 2013 年開始，您將做得更好。
“Pale but emphatically gold, it has aromas which evoke nuts, wild mushrooms, umami, yeast and cream, but in which some lingering sweetness of fruit survives, too (Savagnin for Vin Jaune is picked very ripe).”
“淡而強烈的金色，它的香氣讓人聯想到堅果、野生蘑菇、鮮味、酵母和奶油，但也有一些揮之不去的水果甜味（用於 Vin Jaune 的 Savagnin 採摘得非常成熟）。”
There was also success in Switzerland for the Savagnin grape variety, not to be confused with the similarly named Sauvignon Blanc.
Savagnin 葡萄品種在瑞士也取得了成功，不要與同名的長相思混淆。
Wine cooperative St. Jodern Kellerei in the Valais region already farms some of Europe’s highest vineyards, and it reached the summit of DWWA in 2021 after its ‘Heida Barrique’ 2019 won a Best in Show medal.
瓦萊州地區的葡萄酒合作社 St. Jodern Kellerei 已經種植了一些歐洲最高的葡萄園，並在其 2019 年的“Heida Barrique”獲得最佳展示獎後於 2021 年登上了 DWWA 的頂峰。
Judges said in their notes on the wine, “Heida is the name used in the high Valais (or Wallis) for Savagnin, and our judges were very impressed by the range and expressive uniqueness of Swiss Savagnin this year.”
評委在酒評中說：“Heida 是高瓦萊州（或瓦利斯）用於 Savagnin 的名稱，我們的評委對今年瑞士 Savagnin 的範圍和表現力的獨特性印象深刻。”
They added, “This is a refreshingly aromatic yet full-flavoured wine, striking and singular: a horn sounding in the clear Alpine air.”
他們補充說：“這是一款清新芳香但味道濃郁的葡萄酒，引人注目且獨特：在清澈的阿爾卑斯山空氣中吹響號角。”
DWWA 2021 also saw a first Best in Show medal for France’s Savoie region, awarded to a 100%
Roussanne white wine from Domaine Charles Gonnet for the 2020 vintage.
來自Domaine Charles Gonnet 的2020 年份Roussanne 白葡萄酒。
Friuli in north-east Italy made its debut in the DWWA Best in Show winners’ list, thanks to Muzic winery’s Stare Brajde ‘Collio’ 2019 white wine.
得益於 Muzic 酒莊的 Stare Brajde ‘Collio’ 2019 白葡萄酒，意大利東北部的弗留利首次出現在 DWWA 最佳展示獎獲獎名單中。
There were also two Golds for Ukraine, the first time the country has struck Gold at DWWA.
烏克蘭也獲得了兩枚金牌，這是該國首次在 DWWA 上獲得金牌。
Sarah Jane Evans, Co-Chair at DWWA 2021, said of the results, “You know that this is something that's been through a really rigorous judging process. We're not playing at judging here. This is blind tasting.
DWWA 2021 聯合主席莎拉·簡·埃文斯 (Sarah Jane Evans) 談到結果時說：“你知道，這是經過非常嚴格的評審過程的事情。我們不是在這裡評判。這是盲品。
We have absolutely no idea what the wines are and we're tasting them not only in panels together where we have to each discuss and think about them deeply, but then they go up to Regional Chairs who are experts in those countries.”
我們完全不知道這些葡萄酒是什麼，我們不僅要一起在小組中品嚐它們，我們每個人都必須深入討論和思考它們，然後他們還會上到這些國家的專家區域主席那裡。”
She added, “It's a very, very rigorous process, but it highlights fabulous wines at the end of it.”
她補充說：“這是一個非常非常嚴格的過程，但它在最後突出了美妙的葡萄酒。”
Andrew Jefford, also a DWWA Co-Chair, said, “DWWA is the world's leading wine competition. I'm absolutely thrilled to take part in it every year because having tasted in a number of other competitions I know how well it's organised, how carefully everything is done. So if you get a medal from DWWA it really is worth having and everybody respects it internationally. We get entries from every corner of the wine world, so it is as it were the closest you can get to a universal benchmark.”
DWWA 聯合主席 Andrew Jefford 說：“DWWA 是世界領先的葡萄酒競賽。我非常高興每年都參加它，因為在參加過許多其他比賽后，我知道它組織得多麼好，一切都做得多麼仔細。因此，如果您從 DWWA 獲得獎牌，那確實值得擁有，而且每個人都在國際上尊重它。我們收到來自葡萄酒世界各個角落的參賽作品，因此它是您可以獲得的最接近通用基準的作品。”
More highlights from DWWA 2021
DWWA 2021 的更多亮點

俄羅斯獲得了有史以來第二枚白金獎，而日本的葡萄酒則獲得了兩枚白金獎和四枚金牌。
Classic styles from well-known areas also performed extremely well at DWWA 2021, demonstrating why they enjoy such vaunted reputations among wine lovers.
知名產區的經典款式在 DWWA 2021 上也表現異常出色，證明了它們為何在葡萄酒愛好者中享有如此吹噓的聲譽。
The list of Best in Show medals includes Champagne, California Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, Barossa Valley Shiraz and Margaret River Chardonnay from Australia, Rioja Gran Reserva from the lauded 2004 vintage, South African Cabernet Sauvignon, Vinho Verde from Portugal and Malbec from Argentina.
最佳展示獎牌名單包括香檳、加州赤霞珠和黑比諾、澳大利亞的巴羅薩谷設拉子和瑪格麗特河霞多麗、來自備受讚譽的 2004 年份的里奧哈特級珍藏、南非赤霞珠、葡萄牙的維尼奧維德和阿根廷的馬爾貝克。
Excitement surrounding the Barolo 2016 vintage in Italy’s Piedmont region was given a further boost after Diego Morra’s ‘Monvigliero’ 2016 was awarded a Best in Show medal.
在迭戈·莫拉 (Diego Morra) 的 2016 年“蒙維列羅”(Monvigliero) 獲得最佳表演獎之後，圍繞意大利皮埃蒙特地區的巴羅洛 (Barolo) 2016 年份的興奮度進一步提升。
In total, Italy won seven Best in Show medals, also including Prosecco and Brunello di Montalcino DOCG wines, as well as a Timorasso dry white from Piedmont and a Vin Santo di Carmignano sweet wine from Tuscany.
意大利總共贏得了七項最佳展示獎牌，其中還包括 Prosecco 和 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 葡萄酒，以及來自 Piedmont 的 Timorasso 幹白和來自托斯卡納的 Vin Santo di Carmignano 甜酒。
Some Best in Show awards went to lesser-known styles from top producer nations. New Zealand is renowned for Sauvignon Blanc but it was Tohu’s ‘Whenua Matua’ Chardonnay 2018 that won a Best in Show medal at DWWA 2021. Chile’s La Causa, Cinsault-País-Carignan 2019 from Itata Valley also received this top accolade.
一些最佳展示獎頒給了來自頂級製作國的鮮為人知的款式。 新西蘭以長相思而聞名，但 Tohu 的“Whenua Matua”霞多麗 2018 年在 DWWA 2021 上獲得了最佳展示獎。智利的 La Causa、Itata Valley 的 Cinsault-País-Carignan 2019 也獲得了這一最高榮譽。
Elsewhere, Greece narrowly beat its strong performance at last year’s competition. A Greek Assyrtiko white wine won a Best in Show medal, and the country received six Platinum and 16 Gold medals at DWWA 2021 overall.
在其他地方，希臘在去年的比賽中以微弱優勢擊敗其強勁表現。 一款希臘 Assyrtiko 白葡萄酒獲得了最佳展示獎，該國在 2021 年 DWWA 上獲得了 6 枚白金獎和 16 枚金牌。

在6月時就已經代替全世界遊行了一波囉～
(一起來回顧今年魔法部 #全民潮台灣 競賽

活動詳情 臺灣同志遊行 Taiwan LGBT Pride

#18MakeYourOwnChoice
#我臺灣我驕傲 💪🏻
#亞洲第一

Last year at Pride, #Taiwan was celebrating the passing of #SameSexMarriage, but this year #Pride will be celebrated on behalf of all those who are unable to, due to the #COVID19 pandemic!

This happened on a smaller scale back in June, which is #PrideMonth in many other countries around the world, when participants from #Taiwan, the #US, #Canada, the #UK, #France, #Honduras and #Switzerland showed up in #Taipei's #LibertySquare to show solidarity with our #LGBT+ friends around the world! You can see them in action in the video below, which won first place in the #PandemicPrevention category of this year's Trending Taiwan潮台灣 short film competition!

The #TaiwanModel of pandemic prevention has allowed Taiwan to remain free of local cases for over 200 days, which means the parade can go ahead as planned this year! There is a lot to be grateful for here in #free #democratic Taiwan, as we continue to march towards the goals of #ReducedInequalities and #GenderEquality!

#TaiwanPrideForTheWorld #IMarchFor... #SDG10 #InThisTogether #StayStrong #SDG5

Welcome to my 2nd blog.

I guess you can say that I'm your classic Virgo - perfectionistic, idealistic, a little anal and OCD. Which to me is ironic, given my early musical alter-ego or public persona, has been mostly sunshine, beaches, ukuleles and chill acoustic music. With artistic and musical expression, sometimes you discover new facets of yourself. I love that about art and music. But as chill and as easy all of it looked, I definitely was so not chill about it behind the scenes. From how we chose to combine different instruments for each song, to keeping it fresh and creative and slightly different each time, to picking the locations, to getting the perfect takes, to video editing. I could be glued to the chair, forgetting to eat, drink or pee... all day all night until the work is done. That was my flow.

Flow is always easy, when you can catch the wave. When you feel like you know what you’re doing, when you feel like there's a clear direction. When you catch the wave, you can just ride on the momentum, and everything seems to go smoothly because you can simply function on "what feels right". But then you have those roadbumps, or even those walls. At those points, time seems to move way slower. Everyday becomes a drag, and you start to feel lost, unmotivated, and stuck. But they are necessary. They are there so you can be better. They are there to give you a better board to ride the wave on, because waves all die off eventually. And I always have to remind myself that it's called life, and it's totally normal. But before I got onto it, I had no idea what it was, or what it would look like.

I still remember when "flow" didn't exist for me. I still remember the time when I had my first ever professionally produced and published solo song, before the whole R&K phase, when I worked with the first producer I had ever worked with. I remember winning a certain competition hosted by a certain label, thinking all of it was so exciting and so cool, before the scary reality struck. And then after all the congratulations, he sat me down, and told me the harshest things, but also the most real and genuine words that I still remember today.

I remember going through hours and hours worth of meetings with him, and feeling very discouraged after all of them, thinking that I suck. But I know all he wanted was to try to fire me up. I still see it as tough love till this day, but I guess I was too soft and meek back then to take it like a pro. It definitely took me a while. I remember typing out something he said to me, as a status on my personal private facebook account, and I posted it only really to have it serve as a personal reminder. Essentially, the point was that I had to step up my game. But it wasn't just "step up your game". It was a creative metaphor. Amongst a lot of other things, he said, “Ok, so you won the competition, you’re just the fittest kid in a fat camp. Now you have to go run the olympics. It’s a different playing field completely." I remember posting something like “fit kid in a fat camp”, just because I found it very tongue-in-cheek, and was a good reminder. I was fired up, determined, inspired, motivated, I had an imaginary bandana around my forehead, and I’m like, heck yeah, let’s do this. And then… One day later, with his index finger pointed towards my direction, and with a firm, but calm kind of assertion, he said “Hey, don't quote me on facebook." Ohhhh-kay. Ooops. *Delete.* (I guess all these years later, I just quoted him again. Oops.)

But I can say that whether or not you agree with his mentoring methods, he was, kind of, my first music industry mentor. I remember a lot of the comments he had on a lot of the songs I had. I remember him finally liking ONE particular song that I had, that he ended up arranging and producing for.

I remember sitting on his producer chair, listening to the finished arrangement of my song on the large speakers he had, and being moved to tears. I remember internally freaking out about the crazy makeup on my face for the music video, but was too chicken to say a word about how much of a freak it made me feel like. I remembered from the first time I walked into the studio to record the song. I showed up with a large mug of tea and honey. He told me immediately I should not have had tea, because if it’s caffeinated my voice will drain and die sooner. Darn. Lesson learned. I then found myself in the recording room, and I was so nervous my voice was shaking. My vocal muscles did not listen to me, at all. I didn't realize a professional microphone can pick up so much of my vocal imperfections... But I stuck it out anyway; I only had one session, I had no choice. Walking out of the studio at the end of it, I really thought he was gonna be so harsh with his words. I mentally prepped for it. But he actually was nice for a change. “Hey, not bad for a first time. You should be proud of yourself.” Phew. okay.

And there it was. My first song ever published.

My stories and memories will always be something I can look back on with a smile, no matter what they are. I’m proud to look back and realize how much I’ve grown, thanks to this producer of harsh words, and many other mentors of mine, I hustled hard and was unapologetic about it when I caught my first wave, in the early stages of R&K. It maybe one of many road bumps right now, but when the 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th wave comes, I’ll have new experiences, new stories to share, and new waves to ride on yet again, musical or not, and I’ll enjoy them and cherish them with new perspectives in place. I guess my point is this - Enjoy the ride, enjoy the flow, and be chill with your road bumps or walls. Even if there are no waves to ride on at the moment - still know and have faith that new ones are coming your way. To me, “hope” and “faith” are different. Hope can sometimes produce false expectations, and leave us in despair and disappointment; but faith, on the other hand, keeps us going against all odds. Know the difference. At least, it’s what I know I can always hold on to, and it’s still keeping me going.


Till next time. Choose love, and bring light.

Love,
R

Reppin' my hometown, Calgary, Monogram Coffee has put Canada's coffee scene on the map. The masterminds behind Monogram Coffee, Ben Put, Jeremy Ho and Justin Eyford, deviated from conventional careers in medical sciences to pursue their passion in coffee. The trio worked at numerous cafes in Calgary including Phil & Sebastian prior to opening their own business. They combined their experiences in sourcing, roasting, brewing and education in sciences, developing the perfect formulas for creating some of Canada's best coffee.

Putting their skills to the test, Jeremy competed in his first barista competition in 2012 and took home the award of Best Barista in Canada. Ben killed it in subsequent years holding the title for three consecutive years from 2013 to 2015. The team won global recognition during the 2015 World Barista Championship with Ben winning 3rd place against over 50 competitors from across the world.

During a trip home, we caught up with Monogram Coffee at their new brick and mortar location in Altadore. We talked coffee, life after the University of Calgary, starting a business, competitions and one of the keys to success (in terms of espresso), tampers. Barista champ Ben schooled us on tampers and what led him to create a customized version of the all-important barista tool. Check out the video above and learn a thing or two about coffee!

Eden Kai (16 years old) won the Grand Champion Overall Winner of the 2015 Brown Bags to Stardom talent competition and was also awarded 1st place Instrumental. Eden made history by becoming the first ever instrumentalist to be awarded the grand champion. He performed his amazing acoustic guitar fingerstyle instrumental song “Beautiful Stars” in the biggest talent competition in Hawaii involving all high schools on April 25, 2015 at the Neal Blaisdell Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. This popular event has been a household word in Hawaii since the 1970’s before American Idol or America’s Got Talent giving students an opportunity for stardom.

Eden joins the legacy of famous stars who got their start at this statewide high school competition like Bruno Mars, Jake Shimabukuro, Tia Carrere, Glenn Medeiros, Yuna Ito and others.

Special thanks to Johnny Kai, executive producer of Brown Bags to Stardom, helping to give kids growing up in Hawaii an opportunity to share their talents and gifts, and give them hope that their dreams of stardom can come true.

Much gratitude goes to Kaiser High School students, families, and faculty for their fantastic support and cheering! All the banners, cheering, and love you gave really means so much! Memories that will be cherished forever. In the past two years since moving from Japan, Eden’s creativity and talent have blossomed phenomenally thanks to everyone’s encouragement and school support! The amazing beauty of Hawaii, nature, and people really nurtures the creative artist soul!

We hope you enjoy this video that launches the beginning of Eden Kai’s music career and new YouTube channel. Really appreciate your likes, comments, and subscribe to this new channel, and hope you share it. Lots of awesome videos coming soon, and it really helps Eden out! He loves sharing his music for you to enjoy!

About EDEN KAI:
With millions of fans around the world, Eden Kai has earned his reputation as being a ukulele and guitar virtuoso, a Pop/R&B vocalist, and an accomplished actor. While many were first introduced to Eden when he joined the cast of Netflix and Fuji Television’s Terrace House: Aloha State, the young star’s success had already been years in the making. He has since gone on to make additional appearances on Terrace House: Tokyo 2019-2020, appeared on Shiro to Kiiro on Amazon Prime and has performed at the Fuji Rock Festival (the largest outdoor music festival in Japan), Nisei Week Festival in Little Tokyo, OC Japan Fair and ANA Honolulu Music Week in Waikiki. Eden’s accomplishments have earned him interviews by NBC News and The Yomiuri Shinbun (the world’s most circulated newspaper).

His most recent album, Home Sweet Home, released in 2018 and was recorded in Tokyo, Japan, produced by his music label in Japan Victor Entertainment. Three tracks from that album were featured in episodes of Netflix Japan’s Terrace House during the show’s Opening New Doors and Tokyo 2019-2020 seasons. The series also featured Eden’s instrumental compositions of “Touch the Sky” and “Feel the Earth.” “Monogatari” was his debut pop vocal single, which he wrote and performed on the show. That music, as well as Eden’s past album releases, can be heard on all major streaming services and is available for purchase on Eden’s official website, www.EdenKai.com.

In addition to working on his own music, Eden has collaborated with some of the world’s top artists and producers, including EXILE and Dream. One of his compositions was used to create “Anuenue,” a hit J-Pop single recorded and released by Dance Earth Party, which landed at #11 on the Oricon Music Charts in Japan.

Eden also recognizes the importance of using his music to help others. He has hosted several ukulele workshops in Honolulu and Japan, been the featured performer at the Waikiki Spam Jam, benefiting the largest non-profit in Hawaii that feeds the needy, and the Hawaii Food and Wine Festival from which proceeds helped local children in the community. Eden has donated proceeds from some of his songs to assist humanitarian causes, including the support of a health center in Haiti and the purchase of educational materials for children in Bangladesh.
