Ice Skating Skirt Pattern

Buon Compleanno Pievati...

And yes, the wine country churches, today, 8 years old ... Our project began July 5, 2001, with the opening of Enoteca Golfo Aranci.
project halfway between the ambitious and the reckless, bordering sometimes madness (normal for those who know me and my wife Claudia) ... Everything starts with our passion for wine and food, especially that of Sardinia. We wanted a shop, a shop where you could find good quality products, of course, they were loyal and respectful of the traditions of food and wine culture of our land ... Our guests could buy the products, but mainly a place to live could visit a virtual tour of Sardinia "by the most sought after wines and regional delicacies, the so-called niche food and wine .. In essence, the Enoteca churches had become a paradise for gourmets and lovers of this world ... Despite all the vicissitudes and changing market conditions, these eight years (think of what is success after the September 11, 2001), the philosophy of our project is not cambiata, ma si è arricchita e rinforzata, con la considerazione, che soltanto l'alta qualità e l'unicità dei nostri prodotti, può vincere questo momento, non facilissimo... Un doveroso ringraziamento, a tutti coloro che hanno avuto fiducia in noi, nel nostro progetto e nei nostri prodotti, che nonostante tutto, ci hanno permesso di continuare a percorrere questa "strada", non sempre facilissima... Grazie di cuore!!

Il Progetto European Country Inn: le Locande dell’Europa Rurale, compie un anno


July 18 Enoteca Parishes of Olbia will take a year since I became an official member of the Network of European Rural Inns.

This is a project funded by the European Union under the Community Initiative Leader Plus and under the name "European Country Inn" brings together some twenty partners representing major European rural reality (Sweden, Romania, Toscana, Abruzzo, Puglia , Sardinia).

The objective of the project (promotion and marketing of farm produce and handicrafts and rural tourism offer participating) is taking shape thanks to the activities that take place in Lodging, real and symbolic places of the embassies ruralità, che sono state già attivate in Bruxelles, Roma, Stoccolma, L’Aquila e Bucarest e ad altre azioni, tra le quali spiccano la partecipazione ad Expoitalia in Bruxelles nello scorso novembre, alla Fiera Gastronord in Stoccolma e presso l’Hotel Sheraton in Algeri.

La Sardegna è rappresentata da cinque Gruppi di Azione Locale: Logudoro Goceano, Sulcis, Mare e Monti, Montiferru-Barigadu-Sinis e Monte Linas.

I GAL sardi sono stati protagonisti di queste attività e, dopo il particolare successo ottenuto nelle settimane Sardinia organized in Rome, Stockholm and Brussels, now about to face a new challenge with the opening of the Inn International Olbia.

At this inn, through the valuable work of the staff Enoteca churches, there were all the activities that are planned in major European capitals schools of taste, tasting menu proposition, exposure and marketing of products, meetings dedicated to the tourism and crafts.

The formula of the school of taste - not simple tasting but real training sessions are able to activate the mechanism for identification of areas and products and lead to a recognition of individual rural areas - has been a real success, evidenced by the number of admissions recorded from October to date (over 1000 presence in Brussels, more than 1500 appearances in Rome and more than 250 in Stockholm), the quality of care (specialized, experienced restaurateurs, buyers, institutional representatives, Italians abroad, representatives of EU institutions) and the real interest from importers Sweden, the structures of large retailers and major operators in Belgium specialized national.
