Book excerpt: The epitome of effervescence and centerpiece of celebration, Champagne has become a universal emblem of good fortune, and few can resist its sparkle In Champagne, Uncorked, Alan Tardi journeys into the heartland of the world's most beloved wine. Anchored by the year he spent inside the prestigious and secretive Krug winery in Reims, the story follows the creation of the superlative Krug Grande Cuv'e. Tardi also investigates the evocative history, quirky origins, and cultural significance of Champagne. He reveals how it became the essential celebratory toast (merci Napoleon Bonaparte!), and introduces a cast of colorful characters, including Eugè Mercier, who in 1889 transported his "Cathedral of Champagne," the largest wine cask in the world, to Paris by a team of white horses and oxen, and Joseph Krug, the reserved son of a German butcher who wound up in France, fell head over heels for Champagne, and risked everything to start up his own eponymous house. In the vineyards of Champagne, Tardi discovers how finicky grapes in an unstable climate can lead to a nerve-racking season for growers and winemakers alike. And he ventures deep into the caves, where the delicate and painstaking alchemy of blending takes place -- all of which culminates in the glass we raise to toast life's finer moments.

Download or read book The Dream Assassin Volume 1 written by Roman Harambura and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2019-02-20 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Humanity’s Greatest Gift Imagination” Roman expresses that we as humans have the ability to think by thought power, as humans on this most precious Earth we each have the power within us to create through manifestation anything we choose simply by the power of our own thoughts. Roman believes we are all thinking beings that every thought we each have has the possibilities of becoming our own reality be it negative thoughts or positive thoughts which in turn creates our personal existence either in a negative way or a positive way, he says we are not in reality physical it only appears to be that way because we are so highly conditioned by our own beliefs systems, we are in fact “Living Energy” in the making of becoming “Living Consciousness”. The main reason he wrote and created his new book: “The Dream Assassin” was to show all of humanity that “Imagination” is real, and at the same time create magnificent imaginative magic that would not only bring awareness but ignite the true inner passion of every individual that reads this book, but also to see the movie when it is created in the future to come. As “Albert Einstein the great Theoretical Physicist” said on many occasions: “Reality is merely an Illusion all be it a very persistent one”. It’s like saying just because you cannot touch something doesn’t mean it is not real, because it may be vibrating simply at another level of consciousness.

Download or read book But First Champagne written by David White and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both the region of Champagne and its wines have always been associated with prestige and luxury. Knowledgeable wine enthusiasts have long discussed top Champagnes with the same reverence they reserve for the finest wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But everyday Americans usually keep Champagne way back on the high shelf. It’s for big celebrations, send-offs, and wedding toasts and, more often than not, is bought by the case. The good stuff costs plenty—and frankly, rarely seems worth the price. Today, though, Champagne is in the midst of a renaissance—no longer to be unjustly neglected. Over the past decade, an increasing number of wine enthusiasts have discovered the joys of grower Champagne—wines made by the farmers who grow the grapes. Thanks to a few key wine importers and America’s newfound obsession with knowing where food comes from, these shipments have been climbing steadily. In But First, Champagne, author David White details Champagne’s history along with that of its wines, explains how and why the market is changing, and profiles the region’s leading producers. This book is essential reading for wine enthusiasts, adventurous drinkers, foodies, sommeliers, and drinks professionals. With a comprehensive yet accessible overview of the region, its history, and its leading producers, But First, Champagne will demystify Champagne for all. From the foreword: "Smart, entertaining, and valuable . . . one of those rare wine books that should appeal to people just getting into Champagne and longtime Champagne obsessives." —Ray Isle, Executive Wine Editor, Food & Wine
