  • “I Have Two Infallible Friends Who Always Tell When a Wine Is Done: My Moustache!”
    TORLASCO ITALIA “I have two infallible friends who always tell when a wine is done: my moustache!”. At the end of the 17th century, Augusto Canelli held the keys and the secrets of the most noble and ancient wine cellars in the castles in the province of Asti. The most important wine producers always consulted with Augusto because he was well-known for his knowledge and insight of wine and his advice always guaranteed outstanding results. Augusto always knew of the best grapes to be harvested, he carefully supervised the whole wine-making process and was an expert in the ideal conditions for aging wine. It was said, that when a wine was aged and was ready for drinking, that he had two infallible friends right in front of the bottle - his long moustache which would begin to vibrate and bend upwards. Augusto Canelli, a great connoisseur of all Piedmontese wines, was a master in understanding the qualities of his beloved Barbera d’Asti and always knew which bottle to choose from the cellar. Whoever was lucky enough to meet him at a reception in a castle in the hills of Asti would taste one of his memorable bottles and could not forget him. Everything about the experience was amazing. From the history to the garnet red hue and the intense and fruity aroma with hints of plum, ripe cherry, blackberry and raspberry. And most extraordinary, was the taste of Augusto’s Barbera which was always unforgettable! Thus Augusto Canelli became known as “Monsù Gust”, the lord of barbera, known throughout the Kingdom of Piedmont as “Monsù Gust” which in Piedmontese dialect means “Mr.

Agostino Raso,1 Giulia Maestoso2 1Maresciallo of Carabinieri, serving as a Maresciallo Chief in the Carabinieri, serving as Judicial Police Officer at the Nepi Carabinieri Station Command (VT). Doctor of Science in Administration and Security, Security Curriculum and Investigations, title obtained at the University of Rome Unitelma Sapienza.

Unsolved homicides are typical examples of “cold case”. Many crime news’ cases (either recent or past) have undergone new examinations, with the support of forensic science. In some cases, these new activities have led to crimes’ solution. To face this new need, both “Carabinieri” and “Polizia di Stato” have established recently specific units as part of their own Criminal Investigation Department. RIASSUNTO Per “cold case”, si intendono i c.d. “casi freddi” o “piste fredde”, con riferimento ai delitti più gravi, irrisolti, che anche a distanza di numerosi anni possono essere oggetto di nuove indagini eseguite in particolare attraverso l’utilizzo delle moderne tecniche investigative.

(2020/C 32/10) This communication is published in accordance with Article 17(5) of Commission (1) Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 COMMUNICATING THE APPROVAL OF A STANDARD AMENDMENT ‘Brachetto d’Acqui / ACQUI’ Reference number: PDO-IT-A1382-AM04 Date of communication: 25 September 2019 DESCRIPTION OF AND REASONS FOR THE APPROVED AMENDMENT 1. Description of the wines Description and reasons For ‘Brachetto d’Acqui’ or ‘Acqui’ still and sparkling wines, the minimum total acidity has been changed from 5 g/l to 4.5 g/l. For the sparkling wine (Spumante), the minimum sugar-free extract has been reduced from 18 g/l to 17 g/l. Reasons: Changes in climate conditions have affected the phenological stages and grape ripening which often occurs early, in addition to which the acidity of the must and therefore of the wines obtained from it, is reduced. It was thus considered appropriate to reduce the minimum total acidity by 0.5 g/l. The reduction of the sugar-free extract by one gram per litre constitutes a formal amendment, in relation to the official method, to the previous value for the minimum net dry extract. This amendment concerns section 1.4 of the Single Document and Article 6 of the Product Specification.

    True Italian Taste Piemonte EDUCATIONAL TOUR Discovering typical Italian food & wine June 11 - 16, 2018 True Italian Taste Educational tour to Piemonte THE PRODUCTS Raschera PDO A unique choice: whether you go for the round or square Raschera, its unmistakable qualities are concealed within a treasure chest of thin reddish-grey crust, sometimes with yellowish reflections or reddish markings on the sides, which are often accentuated by ageing. Sink your teeth into its ivory-white, supple texture featuring tiny irregular holes, and discover its fine, delicately scented flavour with a hint of spiciness and savouriness when aged for at least one month. The native area of the one and only Raschera PDO includes the entire territory of the province of Cuneo. Production and ageing must take place at an altitude of more than 900 metres, which is why this is known as an "Alpeggio" cheese (i.e. made from the milk of cows bred on mountain pastures). The signature detail? The Raschera logo, consisting of a stylised "R" stamped at the centre of each wheel. Toma PDO Rather elegant at first sight, Toma PDO is cylindrical in shape, with flat surfaces, slightly convex sides, and rather precise dimensions: its diameter ranges between 15 and 35 cm, its height between 6 and 12 cm depending on the seasoning and production, and its weight can vary from 1.8 to 9 kg. "Toma Piemontese" PDO is made exclusively from full-fat or semi-skimmed cow's milk (and in any case, the fat content of the dry part is never less than 40%).
