Uria Lord Of Searing Flames Draw

What is this?


simple: a whole afternoon on the topic of food and wine, divided into two parts: the first part of round table and a second more operational kitchen with bloggers in the kitchen. And yes, for the foolhardy, even an appendix of tastings of dishes prepared by our chefs and tasting of a selection of whites' Azienda Agricola Albino Armani , running at high speed with bloggers after the good test of their rounds in the Foja Wine of the # 4 Blogger .

The themes of the Round Table, from 14 to about 16:30, will be:
  • The evolution of the kitchen in Italian history - Toni Sarcina, historian and owner of the Gourmet Cooking School Altopalato, will introduce the argument showing the main steps of this path.


  • Cooking utensils and cutting - Francesco de Francesco, bloggers passionate experimentation in the kitchen, will illustrate the importance of proper use of knives and cookware.


  • Matching food and wine - Marco Grossi, vice-delegate of ONAV and blogger Bottled origin, will introduce the debate on this aspect too often overlooked.


  • kitchen and health - Mariangela Balsamo, blogger maisazi.com, will open the issue of well at the table.


  • The network of recipes and recipe on the net - Francesca Valerio, blogger FrancescaV , will explore the relationship between prescriptions and the Internet. While
from 16.30 to 18.30 on the stove will endeavor Francesco de Francesco, Francesca Valerio, Alex Turrell and Francesca Giudici .

Champagne English?

Ah, the case. Mocking, malicious or simply ... random! Get the case (in fact) of a trip to London to work, grab a copy of the Republic just before boarding and a ride through the halls of the British headquarters of the prestigious publishing house I work for. And a cell that lacks only make coffee. Voila, the post was made. I'm not delusional, it all comes back. I open the newspaper as the plane flies over the placid French territory (another chance) and what I read? That because of global warming now, including land around Reims are not suited to the production of fine bubbles and that one must look to the north, the perfidious Albion as a new promised land for the production of this type of wine. It appears that Carol Duval-Leroy, of the same name its prestigious French fashion house is seriously interested in buying an estate of 200 hectares in the Bride Valley, Dorset, UK. Sealing (accidentally) owned by Mr. Spurrier, known English wine expert, who (accidentally) The Independent says that " My land is perfect for growing grapes that produce three types of champagne. acidity and soil quality are perfect. Its geographical position as well." Although so far the estate has been the preserve of innocent sheep. Add that London will host the Olympics in 2012, and that the first "champagne" of the channel could be ready for that very date. Since three clues are evidence, not that you are taking global warming (very serious problem, for heaven's sake) as an excuse to open up new markets of production (and consumption), even where there is no real need?

Back to my randomness, I land in London I take the train, then taxi, and I find myself in our office in Hanover Square. Lap time in the corridors in search of the bathroom and what I find myself in front? What you see in the picture above! Then there are two cases: either the journalists are doing great, big parties, or the British are really gearing up to produce their bubbles. Starting to get your palate with the French original product.

begin to fear for all these coincidences ....


For the record, as global warming and wine I have already spoken here and here.

Can You Still Conceive With Painful Ovulation

Wine bloggers # 4, Round Foja

And so came the bottles. Thanks to Lizzy who had the idea particular to monographic edition of Wine Blogger and the availability of the Albino Armani, a handful of bloggers have finally had a taste of the Foja Tonda, wine grapes Casetta in purity. Brave
company, Armani, represented on this occasion by Giampiero Sappa. Bring their own bottles at the disposal of "snakes" as bloggers means exposing themselves to great risks. But hats off to the courage, especially in a field, like wine, where the rule of "good or bad, as long as we speak" does not hold. The Foja or Casetta Tonda, we said, is one of two indigenous red grape varieties within the new DOC Terradeiforti Valdadige (the other is the Enanzio, and very curious about us. A good producer ....) and that was just discovered and developed by Albino Armani, in the wake of what is a reasonable-facciamocene the nouvelle vogue of indigenous grapes in Italy. A sort of overt reflux after years of barriconi and international grapes. The wine shows in the glass with a bright ruby \u200b\u200bcolor and truly alive. In spite of what often heard (and taught) the color is really a great and important sign of "life path" of a wine. This color tells me high acidity, fruitiness and extreme youth, in spite of the vintage '03 '04 indicated on the label. The nose and the wine 'explosive first red flowers, then cherry and plum, fresh fruit, not overripe, and a clean copy. A few minutes later they also reveal hints of tobacco and spices, but also a certain green note that, in spite of what Terry wrote , reminiscent of the Veneto merlot and cabernet. Certainly not a sin, but a careful analysis of the similarity is remarkable. In the mouth, great body and high acidity, nervous wine and fresh, certainly not trivial, perfect for pairing with food. A wine of those who are, alas, contributing to the fattening of us wine lovers: a sip a mouthful, one after another, and in less than no time you find yourself in surplus few (...) kilo. Of wine so should there be more '! I
would like to try, as he says Luk, a few years.

Old Licence Plates Ontario

I'll be back to you!

You may have noticed my absence from these screens, and how slowblog to bottle, but there is a good reason. I have already mentioned a few posts ago, I took a big project involved almost full time, particularly in the last month. A start-up of those tough, but I'm most proud of. This is Style.it the last effort of the company I work for, a project that I personally followed with regard to the coordination of all the technological part, both front end and back end. And I'm more than happy to show it in beta, just days after its official launch. There is a beautiful community and, as might have missed, including a platform blog.

If you have a feedback, impressions, suggestions and insults, you know where to find me.

Ah, I opened some of the well, called tannin Green!
