A taste of Piemonte
Description
The wine is a piece of past sealed with a cork. Open a bottle, have "a taste of Piemonte" and remember your own story. Everyone who has lived abroad has experienced it: the occasional longing for home that comes unexpectedly, like a cold or headache, and can only be cured by the warmth and comfort of a familiar fragrance or flavour.
As an Italian in the Netherlands, it is no different for me, and whenever it happens, I always cook one of my mother’s recipes (yes, la mamma!) and open a bottle of wine from my home region, Piemonte.
I don’t believe in the common idea of drinking to forget. It’s just the other way around: I drink to remember, because the wine is for me a piece of the past enclosed in a bottle. A familiar, comforting story written several years ago that I can open, taste and savour.
Wine is made of the stories of people, families with their passions, knowledge and traditions, stories of hard work, dreams, pain, love, hope. In one word: life.
Life sealed with a cork and left to mature, allowing time to blend men and nature.
These are the stories I want to tell, so you can open a bottle, have a taste of Piemonte and remember your own story.

For the coming S. Valentine’s Day, I played a bit with words and I wrote for Chefs & Co. Traiteur (Helen & Martine), few lines to present the Spumante extra Dry rosé byCARLINdePAOLO. It works even if you’re alone, but better to take two bottles... ❤️
Supermarktwijn: 'Hoe meer opsmuk, hoe minder de wijn'
An interesting article (In Dutch) about quality and price of the wines in the supermarkets. A pleasant taste doesn’t mean a good wine. I personally select my wines from small family producers with the biggest attention for the quality of the grapes, working according with tradition and with a lot of passion. And now I got thirsty... 🍷 https://www.nu.nl/eten-en-drinken/5705736/supermarktwijn-hoe-meer-opsmuk-hoe-minder-de-wijn.html

Arneis is a white grape variety originating from Piedmont, and has been grown for centuries in the region. Arneis (literally: little rascal, in dialect) is so called because it is a somewhat difficult variety to grow. The white wines made from the Arneis grape are dry and full bodied with notes of pears and apricots. The Arneis Briccodoro by Dante Rivetti (winemakers from mid '800) it's an amazing wine with an expansive bouquet, very fresh and persistent on the tongue. It's the most sold wine by A taste of Piemonte for a reason... it's simply fabulous! Come to taste it on Friday the 8th of June at the Aperitivo Italiano. 5:30pm at Cucina-Italiana Vershal het Veem Stay tuned to discover the other 3 wines! :) Cin Cin, Eros
