Herpes When You Get Older And Immune System

barberadastiis1997tenutadeifioricalosso # barbera2

Also in line with the stimuli triggered by the event # barbera2 I bought a Barbera d'Asti doc "is" of 1997 Tenuta dei Fiori, Calo (AT).


I bought fifteen euro, the other night on the advice of the owner of Enoteca Parlapà C.so Eugene P. 17 to Turin.
I, I admit my ignorance of the Estate of Flowers had never tasted anything.
He (the wine shop) with the force of his ideas and choices (verifiable on the shelf, is the only house in Turin that Catherine and other rarities) convinced me to try.
We debating for an hour of good wine.
I listened, he spoke, every now and then I tried to disagree but I was not allowed.
Then I finally found out who is the son of the legendary butcher the meat of which was weaned.
emotion and hugs.
His father helps him in the kitchen.
A quick return to eat.
I came home in confused excitement, under a deluge, and resulting drift like a wreck.
Barbera d'Asti doc "is" 1997 13.5% vol. Tenuta dei Fiori Valter Bosticardo, Calo (AT).
Color exhaust, slightly orange but alive.
Perfumes evolved but understood and enjoyable.
Easy peel of citrus fruit, herbal and minty (vinegar).



Vertical, elegant would be to say "French".
opens in tones of rosemary and thyme herbs and mineral and graphite, iron-bottom chinotto.
Tobacco and light leather, whispered rather than explosives.
mouth soft and silky and earthy, soft tannins, very tasty, perhaps slightly acidic session.
When I (Henry Togni is a proponent of tasting after 24 hours) riassaggio the next day.
Day after.
very ripe fruit in brandy, cherry, herbaceous, floral and mineral, balsamic.
E 'most improved is outlined rounder, more complex, re-awakening acidity is vivid that seemed absent.
The fruit has resurfaced on a base of mineral graphite, herbaceous tones tend towards the citrus fruit with almonds has almost disappeared.
It was as refreshed, rejuvenated.


Evidently it was better to decant.
and delicious as the French say a boire.
same afternoon I also bought more and Tenuta dei Fiori is a classic method weblog moscato 1998, disgorgement of 2008.
I am a bit 'anxious about the choice that could be risky.
will taste and you'll soon know.
Two footnotes.
Calo is in the province of Asti, Barbera d'Asti in the appropriate sub-area "Tinella" and also in the area of \u200b\u200belection of Muscat.
Calo is on the border with the province of Alba Barbera but not here nebbioleggiano, rather they tend to lash with a rustic acidity and a bet that makes the recognizable features and Barbera del Monferrato.
Bonne degustation.

Rent Japanese Wedding Kimono

Congratulations Thomas!


E 'was the birthday of our tiny little man!
"Now I have 3 years I've got real big, well drive your car mami?"

In fact, these years seem to me to be flown, or rather a strange thing happens to me: childbirth, pregnancy and the months that followed, I think of them lived 15 years ago, not even remember them well, since the first embrace Thomas, his scent, his tiny hand clutching my finger, my husband who keeps him, afraid for the first time in her arms seem a thing of the past week.

However a few days ago .. to celebrate I made two cakes, one for the party at school and another for us at home, what do you think?

Castle Agazzano source of wine live duemilaundici
La nouvelle vague advancing.
No Country for Old Men.



Agazzano Dragged to the advice of young men I met on the internet, along with a Peter Pan of the wine with new age tendencies (aka Victor Rusin Tirebouchon) .
I went.
Savoy left the capital at dawn.
arrive indecent hour, nine and a half (opened at ten o'clock).

Francesco Guccione and Victor Rusin akaTirebouchon


Then we eat bread with crackling in the company of elders of the land organizing the game of bowls in the afternoon.
After that we enter.
chill, is the first time in my life that I access for free at a show.
accreditation.
menate And for that I write here, and go!

Cà de Noci

A total immersion in the pulse of the crowd was quick to form in the castle rooms.
very good wines, good, average and bad.
The usual view of the fairs (it's a matter of statistics).
However, they were the tension, the merry swarm, the chatter between producers, friends, friends of friends of friends, people who had never seen before and never rincontrerò most, the leitmotif of the day.

Storchi

There was sharing, hovered a feeling of being under track a community gleefully antagonistic, integrated but not approved.
I am a utopian dreamer affected by trends.
tell Francesco Guccione feel that the time spent penned the labels and paste them manually is time for a rethink, he needs to reconnect with the range, what I moved.
almost cried to see the labels pantone Alberto and Giovanni di Cà de Noci they designed and executed.
Utopia in the air.
Alessandro Dettori and Fabrizio Iuli

And if I remember correctly ou-topos means no place.
The opposite of land that is rooting.
Fabrizio Iuli Also, perhaps as a result of too many samples of cannonau Alessandro Dettori, repeated like a mantra: "The earth is the vigneron" (you know that the Piedmont often drifts francophone).
may be right.
wines Francesco Guccione and 'A Life are more French in Sicily and Calabria.


Francesco De Franco and Laura's' A Life

Those of Cà de Noci are philological research of agro-sensory memories.
Those of Fabrizio Iuli is divided between the persistent exploitation of Barbera, Nebbiolo recovery of the now vanished from its territory, all seasoned with a fascination Francophile (Pinot Noir).
Those of Nino Barraco are intended to reinvent "Marsala wine (if it ever existed).
Those of Sara Carbone chasing the myth of Aglianico Columella.
Those of Alessandro Dettori wines are pre-Phoenician.
Those of Mark Sferrazza brain are an abstraction.
Those of an extreme Casa Caterina cultural-craft of the concept of evolution.

Delbono Aurelio Casa Caterina

They all work to achieve a non-place that is indeed justified by history and tradition, but history and tradition are the reasons to rebel against this.
are traveling to the island of Utopia because of this world do not feel young.
And utopia is also eu-topos that is perfect kingdom of happiness.
They are not fools, dreamers and maybe yes, the management does not know her, but the street are so many to support them.

Blueprints To A Dune Buggie

parigi16arrondissementpalaisdetokyoeatsavenniéres2007

Paris, 16th Arrondissement, Palais de Tokyo .
And also a bit 'of the 7th arrondissement, Eiffel Tower, the Musée du Quai Branly .


Both are facing each other in half with the Seine.
Like the city digest a scene.
It makes this emblem.
The Trocadero for the accuracy of the Palais de Chaillot, its gardens, the Palais de Tokyo today, the Eiffel Tower and other pavilions were ephemeral scenes here and there for the world fairs of the early twentieth century.

E 'as if he felt the vacuum pump of the nationalist rhetoric and the absurd waste of space and resources.
It 's a place like this place to become non-significant, is so bad that it transcends even the category and stands above any possible aesthetic consideration.
There's all.
And people, myself, go there attracted by the charms of horror and fake.
amplified by the flags of the kiosks, souvenir-sellers of relics, from music and incessant cacophony.
Tentatively, the symbiont as a museum Quai Branly , hiding the facade of plant sought a possible inclusion in a difficult environment.

curry de poulet aux fruits fermier en feuille de BANANIER, riz au épices

At the Palais de Tokyo museum director and designers have tried, I do not understand that with success, to create a museum of contemporary art, militant, alive and productive.
The Palais de Tokyo is as bad as the Trocadero.
are imbued with this aesthetic reminiscent of the twenties and Piacentini Speer and I find it hard to separate them from fascism and its disasters.
Within the Palais de Tokyo seems an abandoned building site just before the completion of work (and thus the je adore).
I designers, two Bordeaux-hard and brutality, have taken to the extreme of their vision.

I there I dragged his wife and daughter to eat at "Tokyo Eat "Because who knows when, where and how I had read that Ristò was worthy of that name, despite its location near tourist hunting.
environment with massive and hard areas, nice tables, nice people, very bright, kitchen with a view to such a self-service but there is nothing pre-cooked, waiters, fast and informal.
began his fashion week, which also involves the Palais de Tokyo is so creative and wandered stangone anorexic pretty good.
In a little room Caracalla some tourists' baffled that maybe he just escape from the cold Atlantic wind flying non-stop the quai.
Eat a well-oriental menu with creative tendencies, but as the blame, nomen omen, all in an environment suited to my architectural delusions.
Sweets memorable and very artistic mise en place.


Excellent coffee.
Wines unfortunately very far from enough.
counting on € 20.00 without wine.
So you gonna give me and then I drank wine in the evening at home, in the middle of the Chinese spring festival.
The change of continent every night to return me a bit stunned '.
You know they are provincial.
Savennieres 2007 Clos des Perrières 12.5% \u200b\u200bvol, of Chateau Soucherie in Beaulieu-sur-Layon.
These wines of the Loire amaze me every time, are in the north, the edge of survival of the screw.
Despite This Chenin forcefully explains what can make a well set in her native vine pedoclima.
Intense straw yellow, bright.

Very intense lemon with mint and anise almost balmy, a deep mineral and hydrocarbon with echoes of fruit.
Wine alcohol levels in spite of the powerful, round, tasty, fruity, sour, salty, very long and satisfying.
good, certainly very young.
Aridity the cellar:
parcel has 1.8, wine-growing eco-friendly, mixed sandy soils, volcanic rocks, schist and granite.
Vinification and aging in wood for 9 months and then 4 months in cuve (steel, I assumed) on the lees.
Bought Enoteca Bacchus et Ariane to 16.00 euro on Caviste is helpful and friendly.
I've brought a bottle home to wrap up in nappies for my daughter and praying to Bacchus / Dionysus, which Louboutin spotting not break my wife's.
The gods have heard me.
I recommend you go pres de la tour Eiffel at night after sunset, at any time previously, a five-minute turns on a spectacular lighting Swarovski (a few years ago was still in operation, then to hold consumption ...) is worth the trip to Pari.
Ah do not play the snob, go up the Eiffel Tower from the top you will see the Bois de Boulogne that sneaks into the city, the zinc roofs that shine in the sun, the Tuileries, the glass roofs of the Grand Palais and feel button and the infernal noise of a metropolis.

Nh Media Online Audition

parigistgermaindespresmaraisborgognachardonnaymacon

Paris, the Marais, the 3rd arrondissement.
echoes in the ears of the song Negresses Verte "l'homme des Marais" although the text has nothing to do with the neighborhood but so much so that my ignorance is justified by continuing to hum.


District of immigration now in the hands of Chinese who have turned it into an annex in Shanghai.
Cuisine Familiale and Chinese food to go go.
Vegetables ever seen, pack choi, noodles, fragrant rice, soups, tofu, dumplings, buns, duck, chicken feet, pig snouts.
A paradise to me that the second lunch of Parmentier de Boeuf and Maigret de canard was in the list gastoenterologo.

Maybe now the city are not what they were but what will be.
less and less inertia preserves them from change and at the same time makes them true.
It 's more Paris Rue du Maire risto with its Chinese stores and wholesale jewelry Maroquinerie and sad that the esplanade of the Champs Elysées looted from shops cheap, tourists and bored eye bulimic and bartenders and criminal predators.
Vive la France.
Viva immigrants that injects life into the bodies of the dying capital European and revive and continue the traditional businesses of the city.
eating steamed vegetables, marinades, spaghetti and fried ravioli Sautee we drank:
Pierrette et Marc Guillemot-Michel Macon-Villages AOC 2008, 13% vol, Burgundy.
certified biodynamic wine made from grapes.
wine produced in Burgundy, daughter of Bacchus, though less noble than the same soil and climate.
Another exegete hard and pure biodynamic more abandon traditional winemaking techniques.
straw yellow color and lively.
impressive minerality and acidity, flavor and disruptive and that if they play with echoes of ripe fruit and vanilla, and the ever present hint of fraud blanche.
In mouth has a strong degreasing agent and two parallel feelings of fatness and moderate dry tangy-sour liquid an oxymoron.


Excellent.
long.
Serve t ° not too low.
fresh, sharp, pure expression of chardonnay in its perfect terroir winemaking without artifice.
vignoble wine terroir and wine.
White wine blend in cement / steel no wood.


Burgundy to Strano inscidibilmente linked to the piece and the soft white with drifts.
cost around 20.00 to Derniere Goutte in St Germain des Pres, beautiful wine district from which it will leave happy and never robbed.
Do not look for power in the wines of Burgundy, but fine, thin vertical lines, but unstoppable penetration nice wines upbeat words of a dear friend.
Oh I forgot, the French have the cult of the land but also the vigneron who is inseparable from the terroir.
Bonne degustation

Fake Community Service Hours For High School

collinedellastellafranciacortasanondosatoandreaarici

As mentioned in the post on Vidur, I was censored by Millebolleblog , the theme was Franciacorta.
A nice article by John Arcari.



I extracted from the many comments received three or four names of small growers and Franciacorta
overcome the disappointment of exclusion from the debate I started looking for wines.
The first were the brothers FACCOLI .
The second Andrea Arici az. agr. Hills Star .
Hard to find in Turin like Casa Caterina, the slope, Camossi.
Contact the manufacturer directly, which puts me in touch with John Arcari.
Acc ...
I had written a lot 'of shit in the comments of his post
It always ends up by keyboard sucks again.
According to remember me by myself and wanted to make me pay.
did not do wrong.
Maybe I would have done the same.


Then we understood.
But the wine made me have to provide a pusher Bresciano who is a lawyer on me.
John Arcari with Nico Danes and others have founded a consulting firm for small / medium growers good but little recognized by the market and their shared a project on you anyway leggetevelo TerraUomoCielo .
Arcari follows John Henry Togni my pen pal and also Camossi.
few days ago comes the wine, I do not pop chained for input.
cellar fridge then the minimum necessary, they say on the label 6 / 8 ° C.
Cascina della Stella, Andrea Arici Franciacorta DOCG uncontrolled sa 12.5% \u200b\u200bvol.


abundant mousse and fine.
Perlage thick, pale yellow alive.
A little 'fresh yeast, fruity / citrus, almond ever becomes bitterness.
Perfumes captivating, deep and fresh but with echoes creamy chard from the north.
I expected a sharp and uncontrolled vertical instead is balanced, round the just the right tangy, just the acid, the mineral right, fizzing the right, even in its own way, round.
Good and drinkable.
Ready but may reserve some surprises later.
If you put two in three bottles in the fridge, minimum.
Henry was right (Togni).
I started with a pizza and then smoked trout, excellent.
The next day, yes I drank two, a piece of Gouda and goat cheese pizza escarole and then a hoax, perhaps treason.

vineyards on the hills of the Star Photo G. Arcari
To be honest we also drank Vintage 2006 great too, perhaps a bit 'more rounder and more elegant, I was now in confusion.
So if I do not regard bad drinking three.
not determined, commentators say his mean-wine territory, maintain that comes out of the closet and tricks without the potential of the grape, the vineyard of pedoclima and anyway, in my opinion, even those Chef Caviste.
If you find it in wine shops do not miss it.
Aridity the cellar:
Andrea Arici cultivates its ten acres of vineyard in Gussago (BS), on the southern edge of the area east of Franciacorta DOCG, the vineyards are on steep slopes and are terraced density of 6,500 vines per hectare run as natural as possible.
wines are drunk Blanc de Blanc, 100% Chardonnay cuvée vinified in white steel, remain on the lees for six months (no malolactic perventua) and then make a second fermentation of 18/22 months, reducing sugars than 1.5 g / l.

My Kidde Carbon Monoxide Detector Reading

barberadalbacascinafrancia07giacomoconternoserralunga

As I said to Henry Vidur Togni and Marguitto Martina launch event # barbera2 twitter made me want to taste some.



I wanted to tell you about the Ferdinand Principiano Romualdo 2006 but I was so surprised and fascinated that I was caught by Stendhal Syndrome so I gave up.
work, the weeks passed, I was a bit 'crushed to release tension and my sweet ½ hosted a dinner at restaurant.


the Casa del Barolo (via Perugia 26 / a) , place very cool and very New Yorker with a nice guy, hardworking and a cook as good as late humorist.
the evening, almost always closed, call first.
The place is located, please remember the Meat packing or Tribeca in New York proche banlieu a wedge of industrial relics.
Cool! does not seem to Turin.
And for a Turin obsessed provincialism is a bonus.
The food was excellent: tartare fassone artichokes and parmesan cheese, artichoke ravioli with butter, knuckle of pork with red cabbage and potatoes with orange Bavarian chocolate chips, but the really cool thing was to choose the enoteca wine from the shelves.
dragged me dazzled between Barolo, Barbaresco, Chianti, the Montepulciano, Super Tuscans, beards.
Barbie!
One look and I see Barbera d'Alba Cascina Francia of G. Conterno and can not resist.
Chosen.
Or she chose me.
than brothers Baroli She is the daughter of a minor bacco.


will not have quarters of nobility but I love children.
For the first time at my table a bottle license plate Giacomo Conterno.
emotion just visual.
For my portfolio, however, a relief that was not a Barolo of equal birth.
I read that comes from a vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba 10 years of age.
will be early but it did not seem to have flaws of youth.
Were it not for a certain muscularity and self-confidence.
Nebbioleggiava like to say how the Langhe or their commentators.
Barbera d'Alba DOC 2007 Cascina Francia G. Conterno.
vivid colors impenetrable.
Nose china, mineral aromas with cherry and thyme and mint impressive.
very concentrated.
Balsamic.
Actually I did not expect this Terrigno and horizontal.
sleek but solid body of graphite and earth.
Hot and tasty.
-bred colt Great shots with muscles and nerves.
Bonne degustation
