Amazon.com: Books: How To Pronounce French, German, and Italian Wine Names (#)

„Just about every wine book that comes out these days promises a fresh approach to the subject, but most are monotonously alike… Every once in a while, I come across a wine book that has something new to say, or at least a new way of saying it." -T.J. Foderaro HOUSTON CHRONICLE "Even if you know wine, do these names flow as effortlessly off your tongue as a vintage port into a decanter? Ycoden-Daute-Isora, Sforzato, Auxerrois and (gulp) Königsschaffhauser Steingrüble? Finally, a guide for the linguistically challenged (which includes me)." -Michael Lonsford MINNEAPOLIS STAR-TRIBUNE "If imported wines leave you tongue-tied, then you'll look forward to Diana Bellucci’s book How To Pronounce French, German and Italian Wine Names.“

Amazon.com: Kitchen & Housewares: WMF Easy Pour Decanter (#)

„While the most common use of a decanter is to prevent sediment in an aged red wine from spoiling the wine's clarity and brilliance, some authorities also recommend decanting young red wines to give them the opportunity to bloom. In either case, this decanter brings elegance to the dinner table. And because it has an indented well in the bottom, steady, careful pouring is possible, as fingers fit securely into the well while the thumb grips atop the decanter's flared base. Standing 9 inches high on a 9-inch-diameter base, the decanter serves beautifully as a vase when it's not being used for wine.“

BBC - Coventry and Warwickshire Features - Perfect festive wine (#)

„"It needs to be kept airtight then you can pour it off through a coffee filter - you can't make a mistake, just do it," he said.You can't keep it in a decanter for too long, just one week means it loses a lot of its flavour complexities, so you do really need to have a decent amount of people around.Even though Christmas is now dominated by cream liquers after dinner, Phil urged that whisky should not be forgotten - and there are few things better than a decent single malt.As an after dinner malt, Laphroaig is a top selection (and a nice present, if the family are reading), which starts at £22, and The Glenrothes is another excellent Scotch - the 1989 bottle is particularly recommended.“

„Brook emphasizes that: "There were no secrets, no mysteries, about wine. My questions, whether about viticulture or winemaking techniques, were readily answered." In a favorable review of the book published in "Decanter" recently, Gerald Asher emphasizes that "this willingness to share information has made it possible for Brook to track changes that amount to a U-turn in all things vinous in the state. When talking to growers elsewhere, I am often amazed to hear them make references to a California that no longer exists - they cannot imagine a place where change can be so rapid and so fundamental."“

„Made in Austria by the world's most-renowned wineglass maker (Riedel Crystal, founded in 1756), this decanter allows sediment to settle, clarifying any older red wine.

It's machine blown of brilliant 24 percent lead crystal and conforms to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin-walled. It holds 37-1/8 ounces, ample for a 750-milliliter bottle of wine, and measures 9 inches high.“

Mendel goes to the storeroom, where there are such silly things as a bike with square wheels, a crate full of imported air, and the Cantor's Decanter. In this messy jumble he finds a menorah and brings it into the main room. Following the rabbi's instructions quite literally, he sets it up by the window -- on the floor!“

„In all of these ventures, he displayed his peculiar, rapid-fire brilliance. Still, just about every episode in Holmes's vast chronicle seems to end with a similar dying fall: "Coleridge took a deep breath, opened his laudanum decanter, and collapsed." Crisis follows upon crisis, opium binge upon opium binge--and by the time the poet begins his massive Biographia Literaria in 1815, you wonder at the fact that he's still alive and kicking.“

When I was asked what I thought of the coffee, I had to be honest with them. They understood, especially because they know I'm a roaster.“
