Classe 64 in degustazione

Domenica sera (28/12/14) ho partecipato alla degustazione dei Bordeaux, ormai diventata un classico appuntamento di fine anno che Angelo Peretti organizza per solo pochi fortunati amici presso la Taverna Kus di San Zeno di Montagna. Secondo me è il miglior modo per festeggiare la fine di un anno e l’arrivo di quello nuovo. Di scena quest’anno 12 vini dell’annata 1964 (hanno cinquant’anni, avete capito bene) ed è sempre molto esaltante approcciarsi a questi vini e scoprire che spesso il fascino è un’emozione che non conosce età…
In Nuremburg with K&U Hausmesse 2014 – Wein radikal anders
posted on 27 November 2014
Gorgeous, wonderful tasting organised by K&U, by Martin Kossler, Dunja Ulbricht and their team. They’re a modest-sized importer in Nuremburg, very special persons, all of them, and they simply exude that spirit, in their remarkably-warm hospitality and generosity, and in every perfect organizational detail of this event that runs for two days every year.
Cows, horses, and nothing but green. Account of a tasting in a de-consacrated church.

And here I am back from Belgium. The only Italian producer among a group of French, I participated for the second time in three days of tastings organised by my small importer, Michel Wijnen in Dilbeek. Just a few tables, with 8 selected producers, all taking part personally. Next to the bottles were the wine-bar prices, as well as promotional prices in case an order was placed right then. The tasters each received a glass and list of the wines, and they had the opportunity of placing an order immediately as they exited–very efficient! Everyone was very interested and tasted every wine by every producer.
