The weather forecasts promise lower temps and a chance forsome much needed rain the remainder of the week. Now if only I could get thissame reassurance from my mechanic. Last week his response was the Fourth ofJuly holiday backed everything up. On Monday he and I discovered after a fullweek the machine shop hadn’t even started work on my part. Now being told carmay be ready the day before I’m scheduled to drive up to North Carolina. Oh and the topper, we don’treally know if this is the fix. Ugh, wine take me away!

There was one bright spot to my sketchy Monday, a wonderfulInsolia produced by Feudo Principi di Butera, a sample from Zonin.
The color of golden straw evokes images of sunny summer daysand warm breezy evenings. Aromas of mango and almond intermingle with flavorsof pineapple, peach and more mango. A slight effervescence hits mid palate, thefinish is well balanced and delectable. Would make a great pairing to barbecuepork sandwiches, ribs or grilled chicken. A truly wonderful summer wine. SRP$13.99
Feudo Principi di Butera is located in the heart of Sicily and once belongedto noble dynasties. The Insolia/Inzolia grape is grown primarily in Sicily although it can also be found in Tuscany under the synonym Ansonica. Insoliamay sound unfamiliar to you but if you’ve tasted Chicken Marsala or Marsala wines, you havebeen introduced to and hopefully enjoyed the Insolia varietal. The grape alongwith Grillo and Cartarratto are the three varietals used to produce the fortifiedwine known as Marsala wine.
Looks like we may finally get some much needed rain, skiesare darkening, rumble of thunder in the distance and the wind is blowingthrough the trees. I sure hope it does make it here so all the vegetation canlet out a collective sigh of aaahhh.
