dormire

perchance da sognare,
della faccia del mio amore

in vino veritas

my cellar has been desperately
in need of an infusion after
the series of wine tastings I hosted
this fall

so shopping I went
for the early winter selection,
of course by some quirk
my vintner is no longer able
to ship to me here in Seattle
so my eight cases must make
a pit stop in Wyoming
before being forwarded on...
a pity

the seasons selections:

1999 Mas Grand Plagniol Rouge Cuvee Prestige, Costieres de Nimes, France
1999 Dom. J. Laurens Cremant de Limoux Brut Blanc de Blancs, France
1999 Swiss House Huxelrebe Beerenauslese Bermersheimer Seilgarten, Rheinhessen, Germany
1999 Nikolaihof Gruner Veltliner Federspiel im Weingebirge, Wachau, Austria
1997 Dom. Cady Coteaux du Layon Saint-Aubin Les Varennes, Loire, France
1997 Pierre Soulez Savennieres Chateau de Chamboureau, Loire Valley, France
1996 Franz Kunstler Estate Riesling, Rheingau, Germany

and the prize
of my search
a hidden beauty

1997 Rosemount Estate Syrah Balmoral, McLaren Vale, Australia

con tolleranza del dio
siamo trasformate da acqua a vino
