相遇產酒的小村莊

Oct 22

                      this blog should have been written a month ago,

 due to the said news I was not able to finish it!
It is already snowing everywhere now, 
I miss the  colourful of the autumn!
Piedmonte
這裏的村莊遠離繁喧的城市,

不食人間煙火的桃源,隱藏到十數世紀的歲月,
環顧四周也是簡樸的鄉村生活 ,
山麓葡萄盛產葡萄酒,
番茄夫婦約會在Alba,   
我與泰狄熊十一點鐘才回旅館裡,  
興高采烈地談了Alba  ,
           住了一夜那個館裡見到昆蟲,                     
這事發生在脫下衣服後,
正要shower cabinet 淋浴時候 ,
正好看到牆腳下有一蜘蛛!
jump out from the shower cabinet at once
 
一邊嚷救命 !! 老公呀!

                           ....有3蜘蛛呀!!諗起都恐怖!!
好驚怕 得叫了起來, 聲音,

 我好驚一邊由浴室狂奔出來, 冷得發抖!

           finally I open the tap and pointing towards the spiders!
 
番茄推薦  La Morra葡萄園!!

Mr Tomato recommand us to go to La Morra, 
La Morra 坐落在海拔600m ,
俯瞰附近全景, 大地就在腳下延伸,

我們住的旅館La Morra 3Km,
La MorraBarolo三大葡萄酒名村之一,
Barolo是意大利境内世界闻名的葡萄酒法定產区,
Barolo有三大葡萄酒名村,
分别是:BaroloLa MorraMontforte
位于Barolo大名村之一的拉梦罗(La Morra)。
***這裏主要生產一流的BarolosBarbaresco***


  


進入村莊的時候, 陽光將霧驅散才能一窺丘陵地形,

層次分明的山麓葡萄,把我完全吸引住了
是簡樸而豐盛,忙碌又閒適的鄉野,
隨時都可能在霧中看農人收割葡萄園收割,
很有秋意山麓葡萄園!

On the way entering the town,
the landscape of the vineyards were catching our attention;
unlike the day before,
the vineyard was clearing from fog on a sunny day.
We saw the farmers were busy working in the field.

 
 
 

                我最喜歡這個番茄介紹名酒村

       Belvedere La Morra , La Morra is like a Balcony!

 



俯瞰附近山麓葡萄全景, 眺望阿爾卑斯山脈全貌;
 
 
整個村莊一片寂靜, 向山腳向上走去

向上走,十數世紀的歲月

Torre Campanille at Piazza Castello
 







觀看著此處的葡萄種 Nebbiolo Wine
 

要一窺葡萄的真貌葡, 串串葡萄很美啊 !


Barbaresco

我與Genova blogmate有個約會在Alba,

那天Alba附近極度擁擠人山人海,

到處是從四方八面趕來松露市場的遊人,

這些遊人大多是自架人士或由乘大旅遊巴士,

我們花了個小時不進去Alba,


              大約在Alba外圍塞了一小時後決定中途放棄;

駕車向北推進向 Asti 駛去 ,

水晶晶突然改變想到 Nieve走一走 ,

可是泰狄熊卻突然轉右往 Barbaresco,

我們沿小路向村口駛進之際,

水晶晶看一輛汽車剛停在村口,

回頭一看見到一位華人在拍照,

不料正當大家互相打招乎時,

    我卻發現對方正是要相約的人!

       但誓估唔到我們不進Alba 未能在Alba相見,

          竟然在這裏 碰到他們夫婦及孩子,

          鬧市碰面不為奇, 但在鄉郊地方碰面是千載難逢,

                   真係只差一分鐘就錯過了這次偶遇,

                况且Piedmonte 有很多產酒的小村,

       偏偏在 Barbaresco遇見真係講都無人


 
Barbaresco
we were supposed to meet Herine at Alba on sunday
however, both of us were not able to entered the town
due to too many cars and visitors.
Visitors were bought by tourists bus from morning until late afternoon without any interruption, sound like all the Northern Italians were here for the tartufo!
Then we decided to go to Barbaresco and Nieve,
When I entered the town, we saw the beautiful landscape.
While I got down from the car intended to take pics.
 I saw a car stop at this post for taking pictures as well,
at this moment, I found out the person was our friend H!

 
Our original plan was to have lunch at Barbaresco
 but the entire town was packed as well!
So we move to another town Nieve!
Nieve
 

 







We could  find only seats in an outdoor restaurant,
it was so cold that day even you can see the blue sky!
