Paul Draper’s forty years and the making of Ridge Monte Bello
March 9th, 2010 admin
Paul Draper is, without question, one of the world’s great winemakers. Even though he has every reason to be an egotistical blowhard, he remains humble and democratic in spirit, asking sincere questions of those around him and quick to point to his team as the reason for the winery’s success. It may sound absurd to think that a winemaker’s personality is as discernible in the glass as the terroir , but that combination of curiosity, humility, and respectful excellence comes through in the wines of Ridge Vineyards. Presiding over forty harvests at Monte Bello in the Santa Cruz Mountains, the winemaker and CEO at Ridge, has seen an almost unparalleled run of excellence. It is rare…

La enorme pelea de la Frikipedia 2...Cambiandole la letra a The ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny, he creado esta obra de arte. Narra una de nuestras peleas diarias en el chat de la Frikipedia. Espero que os guste. He recibido quejas (y con razón) de frikipedistas que no salieron en la canción. Por eso he creado algo de hueco para meterlos a todos. Letra: El gran [KrusheR] contento celebraba que de construir la Frikipedia acababa, cuando vino Frikiman y le tendió una emboscada y le tiró a los pies una frikigranada. [KrusheR] cabreado le fue a kickear, pero no esperaba encontrarse a GTA, que le fue a apuñalar con el cuchillo del jamón, hasta que de repente apareció Kirillov Que empezó a dispararle con un AK, pero con un coche vino a atropellarle Kha (KhazikeKhashondo), el cuál, antes de poder volver a Monifate, vino dar_loki y le pegó con un bate. Sus brazos y piernas de lo lindo bateó, hasta que Kirillov al bate un tiro pegó, se le acabaron las balas y decidió correr porque Nikomaru acaba de aparecer. Esta es la enorme pelea de la Frikipedia. Ciencia poder y baneos, como cada día. Frikipedistas peleando, y solo uno quedará. Esta es la enorme pelea de la Frikipedia. [KrusheR] quiso poner paz muteando a la gente, pero el lag de su PC le hacía estar como ausente. DrVino apareció más cabreado que un etarra, Y DaniMetal fue y le pegó con la guitarra. Khazike volvió a la carga pulsando un par de botones mientras una paliza daba Dar_Loki a Varotone cuando Nefertiti y Dunkel intentaban derrotar toda la <b>...</b>
EL SUEÑO DE SHIDURI -PINTAR CON VI...CARACTERISTICAS DE LA OBRA Y ANTECEDENTES JOSÉ EGORZA CRÍTICO DE ARTE Sí que han existido escarceos por parte de algún artista que ha pintado con vino , a través de manifestaciones monocromáticas muy limitadas, pero la cosa no ha pasado de una anécdota periodística . Una obra de este tipo no puede aportar consistencia suficiente en una exposición abierta al público a no ser que se juegue con matices y materiales .El 25 de octubre de 2008 me desplacé desde Barcelona hasta el Museo Würth de Agoncillo atraído por una obra El Sueño De Shiduri cuyos decorados habían sido ejecutados con vino por el propio autor . Pese a que asistí a una representación teatral pude experimentar en mí mismo el impacto causado por los decorados y su repercusión en el público. Después hable con Pablo Pereda su autor y le animé a seguir investigando en su obra .Ya en ese momento me confesó que deseaba ir mucho más lejos. Aquí está el resultado ¡sorprendente y espectacular! sin duda. El vino por sí sólo no posee fuerza para dejar el color si bien puede conseguirse utilizando la técnica adecuada ; es decir un pequeño truco que posibilita pintar con vino . Pero esa técnica , podríamos decir que parecida a la acuarela, sólo puede ser utilizada en un soporte de papel , jamás en un lienzo y mucho menos en superficies mas duras como la madera. El vino deja su color puro cuando se aplica sobre almidón y algo mas tenue cuando se aplica sobre una cuerda de cáñamo ; todos estos recursos y muchos más han sido <b>...</b>

This is an interesting wine. It’s one that will divide people, depending on their tolerance for and acceptance of Brettanomyces (the ’spoilage’ yeast that’s relatively common in red wines, and which contibutes an earthy, spicy, medicinal, animally quality).

In 1993 Englebert Prieler, an Austrian vintner, decided for the first time to bottle a single-vineyard wine from the grape variety Blaufränkisch.

However, the Blaufränkisch bottles languished unsold until a Swiss collector bought them all as a block....
