I was in Alsace a few years ago and stocked up mainly on cru Rieslings then. Andlau Barr I mainly knew from Klevener(savagnin rose, not klevner pinot blanc) but I had read that Kreydenweiss was good so I bought two cartons.
Of course, one has to be careful and check when they are about to oxidate -- and then it's a matter of taste if you let them a bit, or if you rather drink them...:-) I remember some 82 Bordeaux where I had bad luck and noticed it too late.:-(
Well, I like them fully ripened but not beyond. Some wines need to be watched very closely. I recall some burgundy from 97 and 98 that really had a very brief window of one-two years between opening up and being past it. Following up the Riesling will be very easy in comparison.
Here's to you, and a have a good glass,
Thanks, the same to you:) In this case I have an open Emrich Schonleber Mineral from 2009. I'm terribly ignorant on the subject of german wines but trying to catch up you see..
Really ? How well do they cellar? 20 years seems a bit long. Most pinot noir just doesn't age well. I've got some Kreydenweiss too but it's a bit overpriced. Wiebelsberg was in there. Many good dry Rieslings will keep 20 years I think.
The contamination covers a broad range and not everyone has the same sensitivity to it. That is why to some a wine may just not taste very good while to others it clearly has cork taint even if it still is drinkable. That is also a reason why estimates of the fraction of wines that's corked vary a lot, at least if they're based on experience. I'd put it at 5 to 10%, but then I'm sensitive to cork taint.
I've drunk my share of old wines and you want the oxidation especially when you're drinking a wine too early. But when a wine has aged and is peaking(ymmv actually), decanting easily ruins it. Then it is often enough to decant just to separate the wine from the dirt and to get the odd volatile odor out, and drink. I'd even go further and say the same about many cheaper young reds: don't let it oxidise, it detracts from the taste,
Kerry has said that. But other things have been said as well and what exactly they were planning to do was a lot more vague than that.It wasn't even clear if things were supposed to start small. The senate commission approved of a campaign of maximum 60 , with possible extension to 90 days. 'No boots on the ground' also applied to Libya and there they kept bombing for months till Qaddafi was dead.
Oh come on. Maybe insulting is commonplace on/. but I'm not into that. I'll explain. Porsche also has a horse in its logo. So let's assume you knew that. Then your comment was funny because you could follow it up with "Ah, bad luck there too!"
Oh you still can go fast in Germany. But I don't need fast nor comfy. The most fun is to be had with a small, unassuming, weak engined and quiet car with good pedals , sufficient feedback from the wheel and tyres that don't squeal to easily . That way you get to use skill often and safely(if you're smart) while not pissing off those who live near the corners where you push it. Oh, and try to get one with not too much oversteer.
Syria is not a party to the Chemical Weapons Convention, but it is a party to the Geneva (Protocol) of 1925 which prohibits the use of chemical and biological weapons. So they have a clear obligation not to use chemical weapons in any circumstances.â
That reminds me, someone should write a virus that when an antivirus detects it and displays the messagebox "virus removed", the virus shows an additional messagebox saying "Reports claiming this virus' removal have been greatly exaggerated."
I've seen an interview with an ex nsa guy (William Binney) that at the moment they went way further than the 'one or two degrees of separation rule' (his position that they should stick to that rule and that they're way out of line now). Of course they'll still prioritize.
The main thing that bothers me with an article like this is the emphasis on the really hard encryption. Most hacking happens at other, often mundane levels. With TOR for example, they'll make sure they've got access to servers.
When the leader of a country who has claimed that Assad has to be toppled, sets up a bombing action that can take from 60 to 90 days (longer will need extra approvals) , do you think this has anything to do with punishing? It's not even likely that Assad did the bombing. It would require him to become overconfident and not minding to put his russian allies in a difficult position in order to win a minor advantage. Assad was winning. That was an unacceptable outcome for some, and that ment more dramatic measures had to be taken.
It probably was a sarin attack. But it was also very likely a rebel attack. Your claim that the rebels don't have rockets is based on hearsay. What's more it ignores how easy it is to make basic rockets in Gaza. There was another attack 19 march : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khan_al-Assal_chemical_attack . The russians filed a very detailed report on that in july but it was ignored. So they returned to the issue a few days back since nobody else wants to do it. So this is not the first attempt. There have been several reports of other incidents, including precursor chemicals being found.
The thing is, Assad was winning and there was a lot of motivation on the other side to get the Americans involved military. Now that the Americans decided to get involved they intend to weaken Assad a lot. The discussion that remains is whether they should overthrow him or just break up the country and keep him in place. The US is slightly worried Al Nusra is going to fill the void. Saudi Arabia on the other hand doesn't mind, and they're the big movers.
That's part of the motivation yes. The same intent is behind the term 'Terrorism' , which in effect is used to condemn every form of asymmetric warfare, and when you're the weaker party all you have is asymmetry.

That is interesting and new to me. Of couse if it also sucks up everything else it may become less interesting.

I'm guessing you don't know much about cars , but it's a fun remark either way :)
Can you back up that number? It's a tad high. I've read numbers of max 6 g in high speed cornering,and that's exceptional.

I agree. They are the main players on the ground. I just wanted to make the distinction.
The bulk of the firepower is in the hands of extremists, but they aren't the majority.

Also interesting is the wide price range. I can get Kopi Luwak at a local shop at 200$ - retail. Should I go upstream and start a business?
A variation on the old rule 'if it moves, salute it, if it doesn't move paint it white' ?
And Shakespeare isn't boring really. People just think it probably would be.
It's an interesting argument, but what are you basing it on? It does look plausible, considering the explosive growth in the last decade.
