My creme di Fagioli (cream of white bean soup). It was an absolutely splendid day and also La Festa della Donna (Women Day) here in Italy.

Italian Winestyle: January 2014

http://italianwinestyles.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html

Tuesday, January 28, 2014. What a difference a vermouth makes! Martini’s are my weakness sometimes. My first martini was with my dear friend Sue. Yes, Sue is guilty of introducing me to this classic cocktail, that sometimes just really hits the spot. Then the second one gives you the complete attitude adjustment you needed for making it in the first place. That said, let’s talk about what makes a great martini shall we? Back to the first martini’s with Sue. I asked my wine guy what it was like? I have to...

Tuesday, September 16, 2014. Vespasia, July 2014. This summer we took a mini vacation to Le Marche. On the way there Graziano said we could stop in Norcia for lunch and have fish.

Wednesday, November 19, 2014. Vini di Vignaioli, November 3, 2014. Fornovo Taro, Parma. This is a wine festival I’ve been wanting to go to for a long time. To make it happen we had to skip the Merano Wine Festival. I'm still sad about this fact, but not sad that we had this wonderful experience here at Fornovo. I have to say that the quality of wines that I tasted here were really really high end for natural uncontaminated wines. There were only 2 that I didn’t like at all, no names named here. First Sto...
