Deze Torre del Falasco Valpolicella Ripasso wordt ook wel de baby Amarone genoemd omdat deze wijn een tweede vergisting krijgt met de most van de Amarone. Maar laten we beginnen met de lange geschiedenis van dit wijnhuis, het starte namelijk in 1958 in het noorden van Veneto. De grote naam achter de wijnen van Torre del Falasco is Cantina Valpantena, en coöperatie van 270 producenten met 750 hectare wijngaarden. Er is dus een schat aan ervaring en samen maken ze allermooiste wijnen. De naam van Torre del Falasco is afkomstig uit de geschiednis die terug gaat tot aan het jaar 1600. Toen was er armlijk een bandiet genaamd Falasco die door de vallei raasde en zich vestigde in de plaats Stallavena. Hij was bepalend voor de geschiednis en daarvoor heeft men plaats gemaakt voor de wijngaarden van Torre del Falasco. Want die zijn vandaag de dag wereld beroemd.Uniek wijn deze Valpolicella Ripasso
Voor deze rod wijn gebruikt men de druiven soorten Corvina, Corvinone en Rondinella. Deze groeien op in de beste percelen van Torre del Falasco. De oude dikke stammen geven de wijnmaker een uniek oogst en daarvoor wordt er hard gewerkt. De trossen krijgen alle aandacht en groeien op in geweldig klimaat. De veel zon uren laat de trossen rijpen en de wind vanaf het Garda meer geeft ruim voldoende verkoeling. Na oogst wordt de wijn geperst en vergist, hij rijpt in de kelders van Torre del Falasco. Hierop volgend komt het vakwerk, men vocht de most van de Amarone wijn toe aan het Sap en de Valpolicella Ripasso een tweede vergisting. Het sap wordt vol en romig en erg zacht van smaak.Vol en zeer krachtig deze Torre del Falasco Valpolicella Ripasso
Zodra de kurk van de fles gaat ruiken we de mooiste indrukken van zwart fruit met daarbij vanille en pruimen. In het glas kleurt hij prachtig diep rood paars van kleur. Met onze neus aan het glas ruiken we indrukken van zwart fruit, vanille, ceder en kruidigheid. De rijpe geur laat onze mond glimlachen van mondhoek tot mondhoek. We nemen een slok en deze rode Torre del Falasco Valpolicella Ripasso betoverd onze zintuigen, veel rijkdom van het zwarte fruit met daarbij wat tonen van toffee, chocolade en gestoofde kersen.Shipping Notes

This first part of this book was great for learning about Gandhi's life
Format: Kindle
This first part of this book was great for learning about Gandhi's life. The pictures were enjoyable as well. Near the end of the first part of the book, the main ideas were being repeated. I didn't enjoy the second part of the book which focused on analyzing Gandhi's philosophy and also repeated many of the ideas made in the first part of the book.

A Rich and Wonderful Pictorial Biography
Format: Paperback
This is a beautiful book that tells Ghandi's story through wonderful photographs and a simple and elucidating text. Ghandi appears os a struggling human being who changes himself through hard work. It really is a story of transformation, and it's very well told here. I liked it so well, I used it as part of our study on world revolutions when I was teaching ninth grade last year, and the students also liked it very much.

A Tool for Study
Format: Kindle
Though this book feels like it has been cobbled together from different sources it provides a sense of Gandhi's spiritual growth and the sources for it. His ideas and principles are clearly and often repeatedly stated offering the student the benefit of repetition in varied words. I'll be reading it again and again to extract a summary of those. Recommended for beginning Gandhi explorers.

Off the couch and on the road
Format: Kindle
Even those who are happy in their circumstance may find themselves discontented with the sameness of their days. An adventure will relieve this, and perhaps we can make the adventure happen, and yet the sameness of our days is the very thing that holds us back. But then we read how someone actually did it, had a true adventure to match the best of our daydreams, and we think, I could do that, too!
Beth Jusino’s Camino memoir is for everyone who has ever considered doing something extraordinary, something beyond everyday life. She freely admits her life was sedentary — as couch-bound as you or I — but then the notion of the Camino grew from daydream to impulse, and then became irresistible, and she was fortunate to have a husband who gladly came along.
It’s a book of astonishing quality, the words well-chosen, each page proof of her craft. She engages us not only with her physical ordeal (which is considerable, until she finds better shoes along the way), but also with her wonderment at the things she sees, the people she meets on the way, and we are compelled along, turning each page to see what happens next. Her story is not only rich in anecdote but also in the wealth of reflection on what she sees and hears along the way. Some particular scenes that stay fixed in memory are her encounters with a flock of sheep she meets at just the point when she needs them — a Camino miracle! — and also her descriptions of the great storks in their huge nests on all the church steeples and other high points along the way. Again and again I marked passages in the text so that I may come back and enjoy them once more.
It’s also a love story, and the measure of this is the way we begin to anticipate her moments of particular challenge when her husband will do whatever needs doing or say whatever she needs to hear. It’s his story as well as hers, and she knows this and sets it down, and in so doing, tells us that perhaps she could not have finished her journey without him.
Those who have walked any part of the road to Santiago will relive moments in familiar places and perhaps see what they missed the first time along the way and gain a new insight, a fresh view of what they overlooked before. And they may think, yes, I’ll go again!
But if you’ve never had an adventure and Santiago is no more than the stuff of your daydreams, if you have so far only imagined such an undertaking, if the sameness of your days holds you back, then read this book.
Then go out and do it. But make sure you buy the right shoes.

Walking from La Puy to Finisterre...a well written memoir
Format: Paperback
The key to writing a Camino book--at least from this reader's perspective--it to have a well-written, well-edited, and unique personal account of the adventure. I've read many Camino books that lack these three elements. WTTEOTW has all three elements and is a great addition to anyone's Camino library.
The book is paced nicely and makes for an easy read. I was amused that the author had spent considerable time preparing for this trip yet seemed not to have absorbed some important information prior to the trip--e.g. appropriate footwear, the scramble for nightly accommodations, the frustrations that commonly occur while traveling in unfamiliar cultures. Her adjustments along the way provide humor and insight into preparing for things we've not yet experienced in our own lives.
