  • The Grand Duchess Wine Menu Template
    GRAND WINES aboard The Grand Duchess Sea Fever I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by; And the wheel’s kick and the wind’s song and the white sail’s shaking, And a grey mist on the sea’s face, and a grey dawn breaking. I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying. I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life, To the gull’s way and the whale’s way where the wind’s like a whetted knife; And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover, And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick’s over. John Masefield, 1902 2 THE GRAND DUCHESS The wines on this list are organised by style and categorised by fish. We’re mad about wine and nuts about fish. Bringing the two together for this wine list has been really enjoyable.

  • Equipi Navazos Fino
    SHERRY & FORTIFIED WINE 60ml Equipi Navazos Fino ‘Saca of October 2014’ Jerez SPA 11 The Palomino grapes are sourced from outstanding vineyards, allowed to age for an average of 5 years, then bottled without filtration resulting in a wine of great depth and personality. Highly recommended! Equipo Navazos ‘I Think’ Manzanilla Sherry Jerez SPA 11 Produced in limited quantities by a group of passionate sherry makers, this is a complex manzanilla with notes of salty almonds, white flowers and green apple. A delicious example of the dry sherry style. Henriques and Henriques Sercial Madiera 10 year old Madeira POR 15.5 Extraodinary fortified wine from the tiny island of Madiera, 1000km south west of Portugal. The driest of the Madiera wine styles, it exhibits mouth-watering acidity with notes of spices, citrus peel and nuts. Fantastic with cheese, or as an aperitif. Williams & Humbert ‘Dos Cortados’ Palo Cortado Jerez SPA 14 Palo Cortado as a style occupies a sort of off-to-the-side, way-up-the-back and far-out spot in the sherry heirarchy. Somewhere between amontillado and oloroso this wine balances fine old spirit with citrus cut, date richness and lots of grilled nuts- walnuts and almonds. Kopke White Port Oporto POR 10 Perhaps not the first choice for an aperitif, but Kopke’s white port is deliciously refreshing with vibrant fruity and floral notes and a hint of honey. VERMO UTH & FRIENDS Noilly Prat FRA 11 Made in Marseillan, Southern France, since 1813, Noilly prat is certainly the famous of all dry Vermouth. Lovely over ice, its most commonly used as the vermouth of choice in the Classic Martini.

    IV° E Sezione Liceo Scientifico “La Biodiversità e le colture Campane” ABSTRACT DEL PROGETTO Promotore : IIS “Genovesi - da Vinci” Ideatore e Tutor : Prof. Silvestro Caputo OBIETTIVI FORMATIVI: Il progetto mira a formare competenze che consentano di operare nel campo della ricerca scientifica, portando a conoscenza dei settori produttivi nazionali e internazionali, le ricchezze della biodiversità campana quale valore aggiunto delle risorse paesaggistiche ed ambientali. Allo stesso modo il progetto mira ad informare delle alternative relative alle professionalità attuali aprendo l’ampia area della Green Economy nell’ottica della organizzazione di nuove figure in grado di essere protagoniste del sistema economico italiano basato sul turismo, l’ambiente, la difesa del territorio, la tutela della biodiversità e sull’enogastronomia. Queste sono le premesse di una formazione culturale in grado di utilizzare le tradizionali conoscenze scientifiche con quelle innovative offerte dall’osservazione e dalle nuove tecnologie.Questo punto di partenza deve aprire la mente degli allievi per porsi domande circa la soluzione di problematiche analizzando i processi della sperimentazione, la gestione delle risorse e la promozione economica delle stesse. Il CRAA - Centro per la Ricerca Applicata in Agricoltura (ex Consorzio) – rappresenta tutte le Istituzioni Universitarie Pubbliche Campane oltre la Regione Campania e gli ex ricercatori della “Cirio ricerche”, struttura che gestisce l’Azienda Agricola Sperimentale “Improsta” di proprietà della Regione Campania, estesa per circa 1.400.000 mq. L’attuale Giunta Regionale della Campania con il CRAA sta promuovendo attività di ricerca e formazione tra cui anche i percorsi di “SCUOLA-LAVORO” con obiettivi formativi attinenti ad un nuovo progetto di sviluppo economico del territorio.

  • Aglianico from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Aglianico From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Aglianico (pronounced [aʎˈʎaːniko], roughly "ahl-YAH-nee- koe") is a black grape grown in the Basilicata and Campania Aglianico regions of Italy. The vine originated in Greece and was Grape (Vitis) brought to the south of Italy by Greek settlers. The name may be a corruption of vitis hellenica, Latin for "Greek vine."[1] Another etymology posits a corruption of Apulianicum, the Latin name for the whole of southern Italy in the time of ancient Rome. During this period, it was the principal grape of the famous Falernian wine, the Roman equivalent of a first-growth wine today.

From Greece it was brought to Italy by settlers to Cumae near modern-day Pozzuoli, and from there spread to various points in the regions of Campania and Basilicata. While still grown in Italy, the original Greek plantings seem to have disappeared.[2] In ancient Rome, the grape was the principal component of the world's earliest first-growth wine, Falernian.[1] Ruins from the Greek Along with a white grape known as Greco (today grown as Greco di Tufo), the grape settlement of Cumae.

    WINE LIST The Vinoteca Wine List Once again we’ve been on the long, thirsty hunt for great wines, and it’s taken us everywhere. We’ve got new bottles from Crete, Morocco, France and Australia. We’ve got Barbera from Argentina, Vermentino from the Clare Valley and Grecanico from Sicily – in a keg. Hell, we’ve even got dry-hopped sparkling wine from Bethnal Green, proving there’s nowhere too near or too far on our search for the best juice to put in your glass. After all our tasting, we thought you should get as much out of trying wines as we do, so we invented our Wine Paddles – an easy way to taste three wines at the same time, with a theme and some bite-size information alongside, and there’s a new one every month. Once you’ve tasted and found your favourite, why not celebrate? Call Elisabetta, our Private Room Co-ordinator, on 020 3544 7406 or drop her a line at [email protected] to book one of our private spaces. Maybe the party’s at yours and you need us to fill your fridge with a delivery from our online wine shop. Or you want to make sure your wine rack is never empty by joining the Vinoteca Wine Club with six bottles delivered to your door every month from just £80. Either way, check out our website and we’ll make sure that your wine supply is a lot more reliable than the Summer weather. And whatever you do, don’t forget – if you like what you’re drinking, TAKE IT HOME TODAY! Every Vinoteca is also a Wine Shop, with the full range of wines, beers and artisan spirits available to take away at proper retail prices.
