Een stevige Chardonnay met een prachtige textuur. Een witte wijn bomvol fruitige aroma’s en volle smaken. Esk Valley staat bekend om zijn hoge kwaliteit, waarmee ze ook regelmatig in de prijzen zijn gevallen. Om dit te kunnen bereiken wordt het gehele vinificatieproces nauwlettend gevolgd. Het resultaat is verbluffend en absoluut een aanrader.Toonaangevend wijnhuis in Nieuw-Zeeland
Een van de meest toonaangevende wijnhuizen van Hawke’s Bay is Esk Valley. In de jaren dertig van de vorige eeuw was dit al een succesvol wijnbedrijf. De zaken gingen na een aantal jaren echter wat minder goed en 20 jaar geleden werd het wijnhuis overgenomen door George Fistonisch, de oprichter van Villa Maria. Hiermee begon een nieuw succesverhaal. Het is een bijzonder wijnhuis, dat met grote zorg en oog voor kwaliteit haar wijnen produceert. Onder leiding van hoofdwijnmaker Gordon Russell komen de mooiste wijnen op de markt. Hij gelooft dat textuur in een wijn even belangrijk is als een mooie geur en een elegante smaak.Het vinificatieproces van Esk Valley Chardonnay
De druiven voor deze Esk Valley Chardonnay zijn afkomstig van wijngaarden rond de Hawkes Bay. De wijngaarden in het noorden zorgen voor de afgewerkte wijn met aroma’s van tropisch fruit, terwijl de druiven op de terrassen boven de Tutaekuri-rivier in Puketapu een grapefruittoon toevoegen aan deze witte wijn. Ook een natuurlijke zuurgraad vinden we terug in de gemengde wijn. Alles wordt gedaan om tot de beste kwaliteit te komen. De druiven van verschillende wijngaarden worden apart gevinificeerd en ondergaan een rijping op eikenhouten vaten. De helft van de wijn ondergaat een malolactische gisting om de uiteindelijke wijn iets zachter en ronder te maken. Het resultaat is een elegante Chardonnay uit Nieuw-Zeeland. We merken in de geur aroma’s van perzik en meloen op die vermengd worden door hints van boter, grapefruit en Frans eikenkruid. Een mooie elegante en bovenal zuivere witte wijn met een aangename finale.Shipping Notes

Fine Contemporary Poetry--Just Happens to Be Appalachian
Format: Paperback
The poems in Jesse Graves' TENNESSEE LANDSCAPE WITH BLIGHTED PINE express an indebtedness to a way of life that we contemporary Appalachians have watched transform at an accelerated pace over the past few decades, as we see the beloved old ways of our culture adapt to the demands of a society marked with the pervasiveness of media, the incursion of corporate demands, and the poignant recognition that as much as family prepares us to face the world outside our community, the impact of that world can blur the impressions our homes have made on us. Graves' work approaches these themes from various directions, as a son looking to the legacy of his family, as a youth and young man balancing education--both formal and that gleaned from personal experience--and as a family man weighing what he shares and offers in embodying those values.
In this consistently fine volume, it is difficult to select favorites, but there are "River Gods," where an inebriated student and his companion cross the high railway trestle over the Tennessee River in Knoxville, Tennessee, "Deep Corner," where the speaker contemplates how his life has turned out differently than his brother's, "Mother's Milk," where the speaker weighs how much his mother has contributed to his life (including, sweetly, "an ear for slightly off-pitch singing"), and "Digging the Pond," where the speaker and his father silently acknowledge that the son will not preserve all his father's values:
. . . I stood off to the side too often
to learn what he was born knowing.
The doing and the undoing.
I can find in his face what he reads
about the future in the tea-colored water,
his eyes and mine trying to avoid it.
Graves' love for these gifts, those accepted and those only acknowledged, resonates throughout TENNESSEE LANDSCAPE WITH BLIGHTED PINE.
Graves' appreciation for lyric poetry, his talent for finding the expressiveness of everyday language, and his offering scenes with great depth of meaning and feeling make this collection memorable, worthy of high recommendation.

Extraordinary Journey
Format: Paperback
Jesse Graves conducts the reader on an intimate journey from childhood to manhood. Rooted deep in the rich red clay of East Tennessee, the narrative provides fresh insights about the ties of land and family. "Johnson's Ground" describes an annual homecoming at the family cemetery: "they never let us go, even the ones/Laid under before our births continue to make their claims." The poems express both nostalgia for the past as well as forward-looking hopes for a fresh life in the future. Daughter, Chloe often becomes a bridge from present to past as in "Water Washing Away": "A fair price for the vision of a girl/ who has warped the ancient spell of time,/ who has turned back my eyes." Tennessee Landscape with Blighted Pine is an enchanting read for poet and non-poet alike.

Go Read Art Smith or Charles Wright
Format: Paperback
This book is clearly the case of someone steeped in a lyric tradition, but, rather than engaging in the self-reflexive structure of the tradition, is interested in describing ad nauseum, his southern experience. While there are moments in the book that tend toward the sublime, it rests largely as self-indulgent in a way antithetical to the form it chooses.

Dr. G.
Format: Paperback
Jesse Graves (a.k.a. "Dr. G.") is one of my professors at East Tennessee State University. Not only is he a great teacher, he is a very talented poet. I would recommend his work to anyone! Anyone that does not like his work probably just failed his class. :p

Incredibly Prescient -- Touches On The Major Trends Of Our Times
Format: Hardcover
I was blown away by the fact that the author started writing this book a couple of years ago, before artificial intelligence was in the news, and before the topic and trend of loneliness became so prevalent. The clairvoyance is uncanny and the storyline, while fictional, is totally believable given what's going on in our world today. This is why the novel almost reads like nonfiction, but the plotline carries you forward like a fictional thriller. I audibly gasped, "Holy crap" during the plot twist at the end of the book. Truly a work of art, there is no doubt that this will be adapted for either a movie or a series.
