The world is a round ball slightly flattened at the poles. And being ball doing ? Rolls. ( Giorgio Gaber )
We’ll have to be in perfect balance, no imbalance, no hesitation. To be happy it needs balance. A studied balance, years of trials, months to fix the shot. Finding the right axis. The balance, the long-awaited happiness. You fall, we got up, we fall back again and we got up and taking steps to make us less harm any more time. Yet it is always a pain, continuous injuries . You care, they take the basins from those who have more experience than you, and it goes on. Until aware of what the balance, with a memory of the past you smile and understand. This is life and this is the Frascati wine DOC GOLD LABEL 2014 Cantina Pietra Porzia.
Frascati a load, intense colors, a straw yellow with turns to gold. Smart moves in the glass leaving traces of themselves on the crystal, to remind you not to forget it’s there or it warm and then try again to 14 degrees of temperature as recommended. Because it is a wine that you remember with pleasure, remember the cold and icy as an independent woman or warm as a lover delicate. Shines its light. You look at him and say, “you have conquered stop looking at me like that.” A nose full of intense aromas of fruit, pear, peach, banana, then the mineral light as a feather, delicate never intrusive. Yellow flowers and grassy notes. To mind a field of wheat at sunset. The palate comes strong you do not expect. 12.5 degrees WINE. Fruity, mineral, kindly asking you to love him. A lover of yesteryear. You begin to appreciate every taste, more and more. Delightfully he leaves you then return. How to convince you that he is there for you. It’s not a pimp, because if it was the pimp don’t forget it instead is softly present.
I never write the producers, i always try to give space to the wine. Today I make an exception, because the winemaker and producer Michele Russo has done a great job, he was able to be interpreted and interpret through this wine himself. I invite you to meet him and drink with him a glass of his Frascati. Is he, kind and gentle, sincere as the land will forge. Elegant and at the same time decided, as the months of March in bloom. As precise as the sunrise and the arrival of the moon. Balanced as a glass of wine should be. Rough as a vine. Charismatic as the first berry during the “invaiatura”. Shy as the bud in the spring. I like this Frascati and i like who told me about it. It is no small thin. Normally i like it more than i drink that people who talk about it. I am safe, I talk about it a little but i write a lot.
Technical information: 20000 bottles are produced, the cost of bottle of wine is between 10 and 12 € .

Sommelier Ais, a life in alcohol. I keep so young . Ex editorial director of a newspaper of food and wine, collaborator of online newspapers for wine and food. I have a Supper Club in Rome ” Appartamento9 ” a project in which I strongly believe . Because sharing is the greatest thing in the world, especially in the company of a good meal and a great wine . The passion for cocktails. I do the most good mojito in Rome.
A sudden change of lif, where I left behind me 23 chilos, many enemies, and lots of knowledge I held tight to me, everything that I did become a better woman.
I was the “EX PERFECT”: ex teenager, ex fashion designer, a ex professional dancer, ex tennis player, ex girlfriend,ex -smoker, ex too good .
I became a balanced over the top, a single not by choice, a sommelier who loves infinitely wine. She loves him in his endless features, always looking for new producers. A runner, but above all, i’m back to being happy. Here begins my project of private tastings . Made in my apartment , in summer on the terrace of the house, in winter they moved inside the four walls. A ” Supper Club ” where taste is the watchword . I like taking care of people, and i discovered that through the wine and good food I can fully.
Tastings made for max 6 people, where you can eat drink and talk about what you want. Because wine is conviviality, friendship , old and new.
The house is habited by two cats, if you do not like animals , We can’t became friends.
For everyone else , this is my apartment and you are welcome.
P.S. The photos are taken by an I-phone 4. If Apple were to one day read me and gift me an I -phone of last generation , I would be more than happy .
