Description

Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo CastelleroVijf generaties Fenocchio's produceren sinds 1894 wijn uit hun bezit in Monforte d'Alba. Het grootste deel van de productie werd lokaal verkocht tot 1964, toen de ambitieuze en energieke Giacomo Fenocchio het landgoed overnam. In zijn zoektocht om de beste wijnen in heel Barolo te maken, kocht hij eersteklas percelen in Cannubi en het nabijgelegen Castellero, maar zijn focus lag altijd op wat hij graag het hart van het Barolo gebied noemde, Bussia.

Vijf generaties Fenocchio's produceren sinds 1894 wijn uit hun bezit in Monforte d'Alba. Het grootste deel van de productie werd lokaal verkocht tot 1964, toen de ambitieuze en energieke Giacomo Fenocchio het landgoed overnam. In zijn zoektocht om de beste wijnen in heel Barolo te maken, kocht hij eersteklas percelen in Cannubi en het nabijgelegen Castellero, maar zijn focus lag altijd op wat hij graag het hart van het Barolo-gebied noemde, Bussia.

Het succes van Fenocchio

In april 1989 stierf Giacomo en liet zijn jonge zoon Claudio alle landbouw- en wijnbereidingstaken voor het landgoed over. Zoals Claudio het uitlegt, was het een uitdagende tijd voor Barolo. Veel producenten probeerden een "nieuwe manier" te vinden om Barolo te maken en hadden groot commercieel succes; maar Claudio is nooit van het pad van de traditie afgedwaald. Hij bleef zijn wijnen produceren met de aloude technieken van de klassieke stijl: biologische landbouw, met lange fermentaties op de huid en alleen rijping in grote Slavische eikenhouten vaten. De Nebbiolo druiven voor deze Barolo zijn afkomstig uit de cru Castellero. De wijngaarden hebben een westelijke ligging op een hoogte van 280 meter boven zeeniveau. De bodem bestaat uit mergel met tufsteen en vooral veel zand. De 30 jaar oude wijnstokken profiteren van deze bodem en ontwikkelen daardoor bijzondere eigenschappen. De druiven worden volledig met de hand geoogst waarna een traditionele lange maceratie volgt. De fermentatie met natuurlijke gisten vindt plaats voor 40 dagen in roestvrijstalen tanks. Daarna volgt een rijping van zes maanden in roestvrijstalen tanks gevolgd door 30 maanden houtlagering in Slavonisch eikenhouten vaten. Na de botteling blijven de flessen nog enkele maanden in de wijnkelders.

Geniet van de fluweelzachte Barolo Castellero

De kleur is klassiek intens granaatrood, schoon en van goede substantie in de neus met bloemige en fruitige tonen met tonen van zoethout en wortels. Karaktervolle wijn met uitgesproken tannines. Fluweelzacht en harmonieus met tonen van zoete kruiden en jam. De Barolo Castellero past erg goed bij rood vlees, wild en oude kaas.

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character. *****SPOILERS***** Pros: The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits. Cons: Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks. The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back. ***** As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short. Hence, 3 stars.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!
