MVSA Cava Brut ReservaDit is het paradepaartje van MVSA, een cava van ongekende grootheid met een zeer verfijnde mousse. De wijnmaker van MVSA wilde een Cava maken die een concurrent moest worden voor menig Franse Champagne, nou dat is wel gelukt. Maar voordat het zo ver is moest men heel wat werk verzetten. De oudste wijngaarden te midden in Penedes zijn in top conditie en geven hele krachtige trossen. Door de diepe wortels nemen ze heel veel indrukken op uit de rijke
Dit is het paradepaartje van MVSA, een cava van ongekende grootheid met een zeer verfijnde mousse. De wijnmaker van MVSA wilde een Cava maken die een concurrent moest worden voor menig Franse Champagne, nou dat is wel gelukt. Maar voordat het zo ver is moest men heel wat werk verzetten. De oudste wijngaarden te midden in Penedes zijn in top conditie en geven hele krachtige trossen. Door de diepe wortels nemen ze heel veel indrukken op uit de rijke bodem met als doel een volle tros te weeg te brengen. Het klimaat is daarbij ook erg belangrijk want de oude stokken staan op een unieke plek. Veel zonneschijn door de zuidelijke helling geeft de druiven veel rijkdom. De frisse wind zorgt voor verkoeling tijdens de warme zomerdagen en geeft de druiven een natuurlijke frisheid. Ook deze Reserva wordt gemaakt met de druiven Macabeo, Xarel-Lo en Parellada.Lange lagering voor de MVSA Brut Reserva
Als de perfecte rijpheid is bereikt van de druiven worden ze voorzichtig en met de hoogste precisie geoogst. Vroeg in de ochtend worden ze binnen gehaald en alledrie apart vergist, dit om later de blend te maken. Een klus die we wel over kunnen laten aan de wijnmaker van MVSA want hij heeft een schat aan ervaring. De flessen worden gevuld met gist en suiker en voor minimaal twintig maanden gerijpt in de prachtige kelders van MVSA. Hij krijgt alle tijd om te ontwikkelen en zijn bubbels op te bouwen. De mousse oftewel bubbels zijn erg zacht en heel stijlvol en dat is het kenmerk van deze MVSA Brut Reserva.Vol en zeer krachtig deze MVSA Brut Reserva
Bij het open maken van de fles ruiken we direct een overweldigende geur van wit fruit, gebrande toast, amandel en iets van lentebloesem. Bij het inschenken van deze top cava zien we een diep gele kleur met een licht groene schittering. Maar wat nog meer opvalt zijn de hele lichte kleine belletjes die het glas vullen. Met onze neus aan het glas ruiken we een diepe geur van abrikozen, perziken en wat vers gebakken brood. In de smaak is hij een topper, zeer vol en romig met dikke smaken van wit fruit, vanille, toast en gebrande noten. Echt een Reserva kwaliteit, uniek!Shipping Notes

Amazing Collection!
Format: Hardcover
I've loved Crystal Wilkinson's fiction for so long, so I'm thrilled to see her new book of poems (along with some essays and gorgeous/compelling artwork by Ron Davis). So many memorable image systems work their ways through the poems: creek water, tobacco, the Black body, blood, knives, food and kitchens--symbols and themes which have always marked Wilkinson's oeuvre in one way or another. Her language is lyrical in describing the brutalities of farm life, abuse, grief, and loss. This poetry collection is just stunning!

Amazing Book...
Format: Paperback
It takes a lot nowadays for me to rate any Fiction book 5 stars. I read way more non-fiction, and usually only read highly recommended fiction, or some that's given to me.
There are plenty of other reviews here that tell you how it's not a "happy" book (why that matters i dont know), so i wont go on about that part. I dont base my reading choices on whether they have a happy fantasy story.
This story is very real. The writing is really good. I have several points that i use to rate a book: the story itself, the actual writing style, the 'entertainment' value, the emotions it brings out - laughter, sadness, etc., and if it's very memorable - either by being very different than anything i've ever read, or by something else about it being very different.
The only point out of all of those that i wouldnt give a 5 would be the writing style/prose - which i'd give a 4. It's very good, but not "amazing" to me like some authors are.
The author brought me into the characters - where i could feel what they were feeling, and i understood why they did the 'bad' things they did - totally. I felt the way they lived, the area, the poverty... As the story progressed, i stayed up one night for HOURS wanting to know what happened - until the sun rose actually.
As the finale was coming - which i had no idea would be the way it was - i was literally gripping the book with both hands and holding it up to my face. I realized this and laughed to myself since i hadnt even noticed. Then - i sobbed thru the last 20 pgs - i havent cried from ANY fiction for a long time. Yes, i get into books and really let them take me away, but this book has a special kind of writing and a special story that i never expected to effect me sooo much.
The author THEN does something so amazing at the very end - when i couldnt believe it could get any better. I KNEW what i wanted to happen - and i kept thinking to myself, "no, it wont - because it will just seem to corny if it does." (Even tho i wanted it so much.) She made it happen in a special way, without making it corny but while bringing me the hope and good feeling i needed after all the sobbing. (I dont want to give anything away just in case you dont know the story.)
This book scores an A+. If you love good, moving, American fiction you will love this.

Brava, Ms. Ward
Format: Paperback
I read this novel, along with nine others, for a college literature course. Of the ten, this was the only book to elicit a strong emotional reaction from me. There were moments when I hung my head in frustration, threw up my hands in respect (God bless Ward’s writing style), and wiped my face of tears and snot after crying my eyes out. An incredibly moving and poignant novel.
The novel opens with its narrator Esch, fourteen years old and pregnant. She often follows her brothers around, and is constantly surrounded by men as well as the gruesome society of dog-fighting. Esch’s predominant male surrounding is, perhaps, the main influence that encourages her to sleep with her brother’s friends, and to submissively pine for the one boy, Manny, who unforgivingly mistreats her. Though Esch’s character was impeccably frustrating, and borderline stereotypical and archetypal, her faults lie with a motherless young girl, who wants to be wanted and loved. Both frustrating and annoying, this characterization was, at times, unlikable, yet that is exactly what made Esch so human.
I applaud Ward’s lyrical writing style, as well her ability to write such gruesome and honest depictions that made me literally cringe when reading. Ward is able to effortlessly incorporate poetic language into her novel that, at times, made me set the book in both awe and envy, knowing I would never be able to produce such a product. I did find there to be a disconnect between the poetic language and the colloquial diction. That’s to say, I found it a bit unbelievable that Esch would speak so poorly to her family and friends, yet express herself so eloquently in her narration. Regardless, I found the poetic language to be successful and moving.
I knew before reading the book that it was centered on Hurricane Katrina. However, I was surprised that the novel was centered on the build-up to the hurricane. Katrina itself is more or less twenty pages. The chapter pertaining to the hurricane, as well as the aftermath of the hurricane, were the sections of the novel that I found most captivating. Living through the hurricane with Esch and her family was difficult to read, which is perhaps why Ward chose to limit its description. That said, I wish I had more of Katrina and its aftermath. I waited for the hurricane for 200 pages, and it seemed to end as soon as it started. Though I was unsatisfied by the ending, I appreciated that the novel was a work that was not so much about Katrina as it was about survival and family.
I was captivated by Ward’s poetic writing and honest characters. I will definitely be on the lookout for her other works, as well as an avid recommender of this novel.
