Life Expectancy With Throat Cancer

Piedmont and Tuscany

I'll be back a month later, the development of things-situations- I always make time in my own time, but I get back.
Said, a month spent a month in which the heat is broke with all his energy, where the vines begin to swell smaller than in the case of Merlot grapes are also those slowly, a month when the leaves born green and you see so much on those older and less green.
A month that led to good things, including our first order for England, a place that I love and which are linked to many things including a good drink bottle in an equally good company, and the birth of a friendship that I hope will last for a long time.

This month I had the opportunity to go on picnics in we, going to visit friends in Piedmont producers first and then to Tuscany. In Piedmont
I had the opportunity to move from good Beppe Rinaldi was a moment that "lying" because an accident, and who allowed the honor to his daughter Martha of us sightseeing in her beautiful store. Among the other we also have a chat fatto uno scambio tra un Barolo 2006 ed un Prosecco 2008 sur lie (quanto mi piace scambiare le bottiglie!!!).
Poi da Barolo si è proseguito per Serralunga, dove abbiamo avuto la possibilità di condividere nozioni di cantina e vigneto con Augusto Cappellano , tra un assaggio di Barbera e uno di Barolo chinato. Augusto è proprio una bella persona, l’avevo già capito a Vini Veri, e l’ho confermato in questa visita. Anche con lui scambio, o meglio io 3 bottiglie lui 2, per il semplice fatto che lui ne avanzava una dalla fiera . Per la cronaca mentre scrivo mi ha già detto che si sono bevuti 2 bottiglie di Prosecco in 2…
Da Serralunga we were guests of Mr. Bucci and his wife Princess ,

or who dispenses our wine throughout Italy them and there was the jubilation : 13 wines open true friendship so much meat a day more sultry or fresh. HERE the detailed report made by Christian, because it makes the day very well spent.
one note: I drank our Raboso served at 12 ° and I struggled to recognize it because instead of the usual cherry, this ride had a strawberry so strong that I thought was a Frenchman ... .. and ero ubriaca!!

Questo we invece siamo partiti per la Toscana, dopo una tappa in notturna a Firenze assieme ad un amico la domenica ci siamo ritrovati da Mattia e Cassandra al Caggio

per un mix esplosivo: Vernaccia Pool Party a base di Vernaccia Cocktail , produttori e distributori vari, un ristoratore e tanta bella gente. A servire i cocktail davvero insoliti e molto freschi c’era Andrea Balleri campione del mondo barman, che ci ha deliziato con idee e gusti buoni.
Mattia e Cassandra sono stati organizzatissimi e tutti noi presenti siamo stati in un clima rilassato e conviviale, un perfetto we really organized in every detail with his friend Simone .
Of course there was also a chance to sample wine producers that we brought all of us friends, knowing that there would be people like us thirsty!
What to say? I leave room for photos that sum up the day, hoping to move in the company of other beautiful people!

Bustle Style Mermaid Dress

peppercorn


Torno , hard. How
fatigue lately I try to live again, because it's my turn.
This month has been hard, very hard. I have lost a loved one, a friend who had a brother, with whom he was preparing the harvest, with whom I spoke of our wines of the company, whether bottled or wait, the "feel good that it is this ...." I'm in a stupid, so stupid that they are angry, but maybe I'm more angry by the speed of the incident, or perhaps because they see him more or maybe I do not know why.
is yet to come, but I think this will be one of the ugliest ever harvests, bad because I will not have a comparison with Henry.
It seems as if the vineyard as I move forward by inertia: the grapes are at the stage "peppercorn" , there is a bit 'of downy mildew, botrytis at some point, moreover, the rainy weather damp climate is a boon for them and for us to despair. Tap to be vigilant, not communal, but in order to monitor, observe. We
Descalzi screws Raboso, those of Prosecco, Tocai and Cabernet, then we have spent with the shovel around the collar. I come every year as the blisters shovel, but I do have almost realized. I thought of nothing else. This week we also
sheared , scissors in hand, and strides straight and up and down, up and down between the vines and a sprinkle of rain boots full of "Paltan" swamp-mud; I felt tired legs, I even "inortigada" or tip with the nettles and then realizing it in the shower, when really a little 'feel the burn.
the evening is cold, the tv says that the heat is over ... I hope it does not, because otherwise I do not ripe grapes.
Sono anche andata al convegno sui Lieviti organizzato a Bologna da Vinnatur, dove mi sono trovata anche con Claudia ed Elisa che mi hanno scaldato un po’ il cuore, dove ci siamo confrontate tra fermentazioni, tubi da tirare, pied de cuve. Bello il convegno, molto intimo quasi, con dei relatori che erano dei miei ex compagni di classe: Federico , Andrea e Maurizio. Si è cercato il confronto tra fermentazioni spontanee, controllo della temperatura e non, pied de cuve, ossigeno si e ossigeno no. Certo è che urge il confronto con Angiolino , sia da persona a persona, sia come visioni di azienda da condurre per ottenere vino.

Nel mentre è passanto anche Henk in the company, a Dutch lady who I met in Ceredigion. It was welcomed by them with my Italian, a language which he understands, but says little by little, seems to have understood. I am almost glad to have found them, the genuine soul of the company in the true sense of the word, rather than me who know a bit 'of English, but very little.
Then we decided to roll the labels for the Prosecco DOC 2009, which if all goes well tagged within 15 days (Printing permitting) and then rest a while 'before being sold. Also because there is the third game dell'igt 2008 which is nearing completion of stop before the sale.
If all goes as it should then start on Monday finally Caves first order for 15 days ... I'm lying there, ready, maybe this time stand it ....
course in downtime I continue to label Raboso , I still have 720 bottles to do double-sided hand. Once labeled with taste, between 15 days and is partly not, because then the head and ends up thinking that I always think of him.
I wrote in bulk, I know, but if I did not write so maybe I did not write their own ... in this moment is the best way by which I can express emotions that are not tears.
I hope that in the next post we are happy things to report.

excuse the absence

scusate l'assenza ma sono giorni umanamente duri, a cui si aggiunge il lavoro in vigna e cantina...
vorrei ogni giorno della mia vita così duro, di badile e sudore...pur di riaverlo con noi
baratterei ogni giorno col badile per cancellare quell'ora di domenica....
tornerò, lo prometto... ci vuole solo tempo, un pò di tempo
