Thinking about wine has always seen France, the Tuscan sun, vineyards in the Mendoza region the foot Aconcagui, sometimes Australia. Never think - Canada. And yet. In the small town of Niagara-On-The-Lake, Niagara Ecarpment coated, clay-rich soil and proximity to Lake Ontario, has created a unique microclimate conducive to grape cultivation, and the local farmers developed their own method of production, which quickly glorified among Ontario wine sommeliers throughout world.
Producers of wines from over Lake Ontario profess the principle that the suit is not like buying without so the wine should not buy without tasting. 21 vineyards stretching along the Niagara River Parkway, the main street of Niagara-On-The-Lake (Winston Churchill once declared it as one of Canada's most beautiful streets) open year-round, offering not only tasting of the wines produced at a low cost, but often waive seam secrecy by opening its wine cellars and production halls for visitors. The specialty of the region is ice-wine, ice wine, which to Canada came with German immigrants in the early 80s and today Canada is the only one in Germany, an important producer of this species. Ice wine, dense, very sweet, served mainly as a dessert, is produced in a manner quite different than other wines, surprisingly - through the frosty, reliable Canadian. Grapes for ice-wine production to meet hand, long after the first frost, when the temperature for several days remained between -10 and -13 st C, often sprinkled with snow, and always at night (the temperature was the lowest). Fruits, yellowed and shriveled from the cold more like raisins than grapes and it is in this, very beautiful and appetizing as lies the secret sweetness. After collecting frozen grapes are immediately crushed in a special press and all the water drained to obtain the juice . Productivity is much lower than normal wine, consumes a lot more grapes and hence the price of ice-wine is relatively high, average about $ 45 per bottle with a volume of 375 ml. The most famous ice wine is produced in the largest winery Inniskillin, sponsor the Olympic Games 2010, while the most expensive made in the vineyard of the Royal DeMaria twelve different varieties of grapes in 2002 - a bottle costing $ 5000. May in the vineyards of Niagara-On-The-Lake is a time to celebrate. Great Dionysia, in five years, starting in the first weekend and lasts through the next four. Available in a pretty decent price (40 $) a ticket, not only opens the gates of all 21 wineries, but their doors, cool cellar. Wine & Herb Festival is a time when each of the wineries offers its best wine, composed of pre-selected herbal crowns an elegant, tiny bed - tempts lavender, rosemary, chervil, Cabernet Sauvignon, cream brulee with bergamot and Riesling Ice-wine, pear wine, cookies from tarragon and walnuts. Tasting, sun, smiles, until regret that ends in May. Next in wine festival in Niagara-On-The-Lake in the autumn, after the vintage, then the next tasting, when the harvest rise ice-wine, and in February, the crackling frost - Wine and Chocolate Festival.

China - Shaolin Temple, Xian
China capable of surprise. After sterile clean Beijing - Luoyang which is to put it mildly a bit neglected. About hotels not even mention. Another surprise is the Shaolin monastery - we expected to see the temples and monks practicing - and also delighted us fantastic mountains where we spend the whole day. Oh, those beautiful china. But not Luoyang! I think I can safely go go clubs krakow cars.moto-hobby.co.uk motorization.great-auto.co.uk say that the city is less than 1.5 million people is a terrible hole and there's not interesting! Upon arrival to the metropolis willy-nilly first station we visited. Longer remember how it works - as soon as you arrive you need necessarily to buy tickets as soon as possible and making good conditions to then get out of this place ... No such charm - nothing can not help it. So happy we have tickets to Xian (109Y) - was a bit of the obstacles because it's already the next day's departure - was, therefore, only tickets for the train at midnight.
