Trittenheim / Moselle

  

The clouds over the Vino Noceto vineyards in Amador County yesterday were amazing!

I became interested in wine for the first time in 1964 because of my former colleague Mr. Katsumi Asada, who was the very first wine sommelier in Japan. Mr. Asada has published many wine books and is now serving as the chairman of the Japan Sommelier Association. Fortunately, he taught me many things about wine for 6 years in those days. He was extremely passionate about wine and good at teaching. My first wine tasting was a Trockenbeerenauslese - Schloss Schoenborn Riesling offered by Mr. Asada. I still remember the world's finest aromatic grape of German origin. It was jaw droppingly rich and its deep sweetness was too complex to identify like Chateau d'Yquem from Bordeaux, France. He knew how to impress any first time wine tasters. I've become a captive of wine since then.

Wine Tasting

Playing with filters, effect, a smudging.

   

The Rhino wine tasting selection was very pleasing to the taste bud and to the eyes. It was a very wonderful experience and would be happy to do it again.

Pour la petite histoire, une Américaine dégustant un verre de vin blanc sur le parapet d'un pont au coucher du soleil...

Intrigué par mes manoeuvres "circulaires" pour trouver le bon angle d'approche (reflet de l'Arno dans le verre), son mari (ou ami) m'a demandé de lui montrer la photo que j'avais prise...

Convaincu par mon "choix stratégique" il s'est immédiatement empressé de faire la même prise de vue...

Dommage que l’on n’ait pas pu comparer les résultats ! :-)

Wine Tasting and culinary class in Alentejo

We visited the "Ruca Malen" winery outside Mendoza to taste some fantastic wines, just after getting up late, since we'd had too much wine the night before... :-)

Wine and meat was the basic reason for our short Argentina trip, so we had to make most of it...
