videoMoscato Di Scanzo Italy an Introduction Reel
Moscato di Scanzo DOCG Italy We were off on our first trip into Italian wine country before the Wine Media Conference in Lombardia. On the road, our little bus heading from Milan to Bergamo was filled with wine writers chattering excitedly. As we approached Bergamo, the little bus left the freeway traffic and began surfing the serpentine two-lane roads of the region’s hills. The hills are lush and green, and trees are sweeping in a blur as we take turns. Expansive views of the landscape to the south fan out before us one moment, followed by peeks into tiny valleys tucked in between the hills as the road hairpins back on itself. At last, we turn down a steep driveway into a property called Martinì Col di Paste. As we pull down the driveway, a magnificent little valley opens in front of us. It was picture postcard perfect. This was our destination, the valley of the Moscato di Scanzo DOCG. Francesca Pagnoncelli Folcieri First to greet us was a petite woman casually dressed in
videoDr. Homebrew | Episode #276: Back to the '90's
We had this idea: what if we had a few adventurous homebrewers brew beers according to some old set of BJCP style guidelines? Could they do it? What would that judging be like? How much has beer changed over the last 20 years or so? Turns out, there were other people who wanted to know the answers to those questions, too! So on today's show, we have on three homebrewers who each brewed some throwback beers for us, according to the 1999 BJCP style guidelines. Fun!

Lucas Krzikalla - ich schenk mir grad nach
In dieser Folge von Halbtrocken ist Lucas Krzikalla zu Gast. Profihandballer beim SC DHfK Leipzig, Junge vom Dorf. Handball spielt er, seit er fünf Jahre alt ist – und trotzdem ist sein Leben weit mehr als nur Sport. Wir sprechen über seinen Weg in den Profihandball, über frühe Leidenschaft, Disziplin und darüber, wie sich aus Spaß ein Beruf entwickelt. Lucas gibt einen ehrlichen Einblick in den Alltag als Profisportler, in enge Zeitpläne, Verzicht und das Gefühl, kaum selbst bestimmen zu können, wann Pause möglich ist. Ein Thema ist auch die aktuelle Saison in Leipzig: Spiele, Ergebnisse, Teamdynamik und der Blick auf die kommenden Monate. Lucas ist der erste noch aktive, geoutete schwule Profisportler im deutschen Männer-Teamsport. Auch darüber sprechen wir – differenziert und ohne Schlagzeilenlogik. Warum seine Sexualität für ihn nur einen Teil seiner Persönlichkeit ausmacht, wie er das Leben in der Kabine erlebt und wo sich im Profisport langsam etwas verändert. Es geht um Rollenbi

If you have ever dealt with heartbreak in recovery, this episode is for you. I had the opportunity to interview my long time friend, Ivey, who got sober at 18 years old. We go through her childhood and early drug use in the first hour, and in the second hour, we delve into her marriage and motherhood at just 22 years old with a few years sober, and her subsequent divorce by 27. Ivey is so incredibly vulnerable and honest in sharing her experience with heartbreak and then dating in sobriety, and I am so proud of her. Ivey and I also talk about our recent separation in our friendship...if you have been listening to the show for a while, you have probably heard me mention a friend that I have missed and have often expressed deep regret about losing - this is who I was talking about. Ivey and I had the opportunity to make amends to each other and I while I hate that we had a disagreement in the first place, I love that in real time you all were able to walk with me through a crushing frien

podcast· 59:19· Ep 496Wine Talks with Paul Mabray: Navigating the Digital Evolution of the Wine Industry
Next week, I am in Paris. And I have the privledge to document the session on "Rethinking The WIne Business." Two of the prominent panel members are Paul Mabray and Priscilla Hennekam. There is a movement in the trade to mix things up a bit; make some changes, move the needle a bit. Paul Mabray is considered the pre-eminent authority of all things digital wine. Platforms, logistics, user-experience and more, all play into the realm of Paul's knowledge base. I have to tell you, having Paul Mabray on the show was a breath of fresh air—no other way to describe it. He's got this knack for slicing through the clutter and getting to the heart of what's happening in the wine world today. You know me, I love a good anecdote and an insightful thought, and he delivered plenty. Right out of the gate, Paul Mabray hit us with a beautiful metaphor: a glass of wine is a time capsule, a space-time machine connecting you to France ten years ago, or some other corner of the world and moment in history.

podcast· 9:51O PAPEL DOS MONGES NA HISTÓRIA DO VINHO
Durante a Idade Média, foram as ordens monásticas que preservaram, organizaram e aprimoraram o conhecimento vitivinícola herdado da Antiguidade. Em um período de instabilidade política e cultural, monges católicos transformaram o cultivo da vinha em parte essencial da vida monástica, seja por necessidade alimentar, medicinal, econômica ou religiosa. Neste vídeo, você vai entender como beneditinos, cistercienses, franciscanos e jesuítas tiveram papel decisivo na identificação de grandes terroirs europeus, na organização dos vinhedos e na difusão da vitivinicultura pelo Novo Mundo. Da Borgonha à Península Ibérica, e das missões da América do Sul à Califórnia, o vinho evoluiu lado a lado com a história da Igreja. NESTE VÍDEO, VOCÊ VAI VER 🍷 ⛪ Como as ordens monásticas preservaram o vinho na Idade Média 📜 A Regra de São Bento e o princípio do “Ora et Labora” 🍇 A influência dos monges na Borgonha, Champagne, Loire e Bordeaux 🧱 O surgimento dos clos e a identificação dos melhores vinhedo

A Balanced Ecosystem for all There are many ways to keep the ecosystem Balanced…here are a few Kelp has been found to be a terrific fertilizer, building immunity and helping with any nutrient deficiencies, and it can help defend plants from insects and build resistance to disease. But you might be wondering about the sustainability of growing kelp for this purpose. I was! In my research, I discovered that Kelp is sustainable. Like bamboo, it grows quickly! It does not require fertilizer to grow, and best of all, it sequesters carbon. Let me put an exclamation point on that: per acre, it can sequester up to 20 times more carbon than a forest!

Healing Through Hidden Trauma: A Personal Journey To Transformation
Terra Holbrook is the founder of TerraVista Retreats in Idaho, a unique healing space dedicated to helping individuals recover from trauma, addiction, and other life challenges. With over two decades of experience as a therapist, Terra specializes in trauma-informed care, focusing on guiding people through the often hidden layers of trauma that can affect every aspect of their lives.

Then, we dive into the topic of trauma. Trauma is something everyone experiences, and it's really about how we respond afterward when we can't fully resolve the events or experiences we've endured. In today's episode, we'll explore the concept of hidden trauma—what it is, how it manifests, and how it can be addressed and healed. Terra brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this topic, and I'm excited for h
