Viticcio Vin Santo del Chianti Classico Occhio di Pernice DOC 2011 Vin Santo del Chianti Classico, Italië

Viticcio Vin Santo del Chianti Classico Occhio di Pernice DOC 2011 is een zeldzame Toscaanse dessertwijn van 100% Sangiovese, gemaakt van ingedroogde druiven en jarenlang gerijpt in kleine eikenhouten vaten. Dit is een intense, amberkleurige Vin Santo met gedroogd fruit, noten, vanille en frisse zuren die de zoetheid prachtig in balans houden.

Wijngaarden en regio

Deze Vin Santo komt uit Chianti Classico, met Greve in Chianti als historische kern van het domein.

Ligging / Herkomst: Viticcio ligt in Greve in Chianti, tussen Florence en Siena. Dit dorp behoort tot het hart van Chianti Classico, waar Sangiovese al generaties lang de belangrijkste blauwe druif is.

Wijngaardbeheer: Sinds 2003 worden 8 hectare wijngaarden volgens biodynamische methoden verzorgd en sinds 2013 is de volledige productie biologisch. Dat past bij de werkwijze van Viticcio, waarin bodemgezondheid en natuurlijk evenwicht in de wijngaard centraal staan.

Wijngaardareaal: Het landgoed omvat in totaal 58 hectare wijngaarden. Daarvan ligt 28 hectare in het historische kerngebied van Chianti Classico en 30 hectare in Maremma, binnen de appellatie Bolgheri.

Klimaat & Invloeden: De heuvels rond Greve in Chianti zorgen voor hoogteverschillen, ventilatie en duidelijke temperatuurverschillen tussen dag en nacht. Dat helpt Sangiovese om rijpheid op te bouwen terwijl de frisse zuren behouden blijven, belangrijk voor een zoete wijn als Vin Santo.

Vinificatie en rijping

De kracht van deze Vin Santo zit in de concentratie van ingedroogde druiven en de extreem lange rijping in kleine eikenhouten vaten.

Oogst & Selectie: De druiven worden vroeg geoogst om hun natuurlijke zuren te bewaren en daarna 3 maanden gedroogd. Dit indrogen concentreert de suikers, aroma’s en structuur, terwijl de frisheid behouden blijft.

Vergisting: Na het drogen worden de druiven geperst en vergisten ze langzaam in geselecteerde eikenhouten vaten van 70 liter. Wat is Vin Santo? Vin Santo is een Toscaanse zoete wijn van ingedroogde druiven, bekend om zijn diepe kleur, notige aroma’s en lange rijping.

Rijping / Houtopvoeding: De wijn blijft 6 jaar in kleine eikenhouten vaten. Die lange rijping zorgt voor oxidatieve complexiteit, met tonen van gedroogde abrikoos, vijg, gebrande noten, vanille en een gelaagde, filmende textuur.

Alcoholpercentage: Met 19% alcohol heeft deze Vin Santo veel kracht en intensiteit, waardoor de zoetheid, zuren en notige rijping stevig genoeg worden gedragen.

Druivensamenstelling

Deze Vin Santo wordt volledig gemaakt van Sangiovese, maar in een totaal andere stijl dan de droge rode wijnen uit Chianti Classico.

100% Sangiovese – Chianti Classico: Sangiovese geeft deze wijn zijn amberkleurige diepte, frisse zuurlijn en kruidige structuur. Door het indrogen krijgt de druif een geconcentreerde expressie van vijg, abrikoos, noten en zoete specerijen.

Proefnotities en serveertips

Diep amberkleurig in het glas, met aroma’s van gedroogde abrikoos, vijg, vanille en gebrande noten. De smaak is rijk en zoet, met een filmende structuur en frisse zuren die de wijn levendig houden. De afdronk is lang, warm en notig, met een prachtige balans tussen zoetheid en spanning.

Serveertemperatuur: Serveer op 8–10 °C, zodat de zoetheid fris blijft en de tonen van gedroogd fruit, vanille en noten mooi helder naar voren komen.

Gerechten: Klassiek bij cantuccini, maar ook heerlijk bij zachte kazen met noten, vijgen, amandeltaart, crème brûlée of andere rijke zoete desserts.

A well-lively account of a recent and unsavory period of American history, roughly 1946-1955.
Format: Hardcover
Red Scare is a well researched and a very readable account of a significant moment in post-World War II American politics. The author situates the rise of the Red Scare in a right-wing reaction to the New Deal, the labor unions, and any forward progress towards civil rights for black and other non-white Americans. The Red Scare gathers force in the Republican Party following a long frustrating period in which the Democratic Party coalition led by FDR remained in power and reshaped the federal government to counter the Great Depression and then mobilize the nation for total war on multiple fronts in Europe and the Pacific. At the beginning of the Cold War, politicians like the young ambitious Richard Nixon find Red-baiting the Democratic Party opposition leads to electoral success in post-war Congressional races. The Republican Party secures a majority in the Senate and the House following the midterm election of 1950. Risen shows a reactionary movement gathering momentum from the Cold War geopolitics that shattered expectations for the peace and security that Americans had hoped for when the war ended in victory. In the wake of the defeat of the Axis powers, Americans felt threatened by the spread of Communist-backed and Communist-inspired regimes, first in Eastern Europe and then in China, then the Korean peninsula. Although the US and Russia were ideologically distinct, they cooperated during the War to defeat their common enemy, namely Hitler and Nazi Germany. But the conclusion of the war brought a decisive end to that cooperation. Instead, there was a series of confrontations in Greece, a divided Germany, and the Eastern European bloc of nations that the Red Army occupied and kept tightly controlled. Roosevelt’s coalition had embraced progressive and socialist proposals like Social Security and the Wagner Act that protected workers’s right to organize and collective bargaining. The Red Scare marked the beginning of a reactionary response to roll back those policies. Meanwhile, the elaborate security apparatus of the Federal government that was empowered during World War II was re-directed against left-wing groups that FBI Director Hoover targeted as “unAmerican.” There was also justifiable alarm that people like Klaus Fuchs spied for the Soviets and passed them much of the secret sauce in the technology developed at considerable expense around the atomic bomb. Risen’s book plays all the hits from that ignominious period: the House Committee on UnAmerican Activities (HUAC), the Hollywood 10, the Alger Hiss affair, the China Lobby, the Smith Act prosecutions against the American Communist Party leaders, the trial and execution of the Rosenbergs, loyalty oaths and blacklists, the persecution of J. Robert Oppenheimer. They are all here. The book chronicles the rise and fall of Senator Joseph McCarthy, and the colorful personalities around his political career including the attorney Joseph Welch that the Army hired to confront him, the TV personality Edward R. Murrow, and his ruthless and feckless henchman Roy Cohn. He sees McCarthy more as a symptom than a cause. Risen shows how Eisenhower, elected President in 1952 on the Republican ticket, co-opted and ultimately blunted the anti-Communist crusade in favor of a less confrontational, more moderate approach. Eisenhower also had a visceral reaction to personal attacks carried out on the integrity of George Marshall for “losing China,” having served under Marshall during the height of his military career. The book also highlights the Supreme Court’s decisive change of heart, under newly appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren, that reasserted 1st Amendment and 4th Amendment rights against guilty by association prosecutions. In many places of the book, the author empathizes the many continuities between the rabid anti-Communist rhetoric and tactics of the early 50s with the right wing politics of the present day, particularly in the area of Public Education.

The American Legion
Format: Hardcover
This is a great book, well researched and excellently written. It is a follow up to the Broadway show I attended, "Good Night and Good Luck." A most excellent show and also filmed by CNN. What is most disturbing about the book, as an American Legionnaire, is how far right and violent the American Legion was during this period.

Well Written and Readable. Highly Recommend
Format: Kindle
I am working on my longest “Days In A Row” reading streak. Finished my last book early with nothing setup to read. Couldn’t find anything that interested me. The 1950’s Red Scare is mentioned often and I only had a high level, general knowledge of that period in history. AND… the Kindle book was on sale for $2. Thought it was worth a shot? The book immediately shot to the top of both my “Best Books” and “Most Informative Books” lists. Highly researched, well organized, incredibly well written and most importantly, readable. If you like history, this is an excellent book on the late 40’s and 50’s. Highly recommend.

Must-read history to understand the current moment
Format: Hardcover
A fast read, and a fun one (given the topic) Clay Risen's RED SCARE is a major accomplishment. If you don't know much about the Red Scare and McCarthyism, this is a great place to start. If you think you do, you'll learn something and enjoy Risen's meticulously researched account. RED SCARE is also a timely book, providing context for today's MAGA-fueled distrust of DEI and "woke" culture, and the rearguard, "White is right," 1950s mindset that informs it. A must-read book.

McCarthy and his reach into the modern day
Format: Hardcover
Reasonably even-handed history of McCarthy's rise and fall, the movement he founded, and the people and institutions affected by his influence. A difficult period to read about, though Risen's prose is accessible. A good overview for anyone interested in the period.
