Deze Verdejo wijn is een bijzondere witte wijn. Een Spaans genoegen, waar je verrassend veel complexiteit in aantreft. Juist daarom is deze Val de Vid Rueda Verdejo al jarenlang een vaste waarde in ons assortiment. Onmisbaar voor tijdens een uitgebreide lunch. Het aromatisch doch elegante karakter gaat goed samen zowel met diverse soorten salades als met witte vlees. Ongetwijfeld dat de zon direct begint te schijnen zodra de fles Val de Vid Rueda Verdejo open wordt gemaakt.De Verdejo wijnen uit Spanje
Wanneer we het over de Verdejo druiven hebben, kunnen we haast niet om de Rueda heen. Dit gebied, ten noord-westen van de Spaanse hoofdstad Madrid, heeft zich in amper veertig jaar ontwikkeld tot een echte grootmacht binnen de Spaanse wijnbouw. Het is vooral de Verdejo druif die hieraan een grote rol toebedeeld kan worden. De Verdejo heeft namelijk een aandeel van 90% op de wijngaarden van Rueda. Dit is vooral te danken aan de Nederlandse wijndrinker, die de Verdejo wijnen volledig heeft omarmd.Waarom Val de Vid Rueda Verdejo kopen?
De Verdejo druiven voelen zich uitermate goed in het Rueda gebied. Een gebied welke nog niet zo een lange geschiedenis heeft als bijvoorbeeld de Rioja. Het was pas halverwege de jaren tachtig dat de wijnranken in Rueda volop werden aangeplant. Mede dankzij goede innovaties en investeringen van toonaangevende wijnhuizen, kunnen wij vandaag de dag genieten van de gulheid die de Verdejo te bieden heeft. Nou, gulheid zit er genoeg in deze Val de Vid Rueda Verdejo. Een complexe jongen, waar je smaakpapillen bijzonder vrolijk van zullen worden. In eerste instantie ontdek je ontzettend veel fruit in deze witte wijn van Val de Vid. Granny smith en rijpe, witte peer. Maar ook het verfrissende van grapefruit is zeker goed te onderscheiden in deze wijn. De smaak is haast legendarisch te noemen, met uitgesproken nuances van appel, kruisbessen en venkel. Een lichte zweem kamperfoelie maakt Val de Vid Rueda Verdejo compleet.Shipping Notes

Spectacular Albeit Unknown History of Race Relations
Format: Hardcover
This is a great piece of historiography about something few know about at all --- slavery in New York City in the 18th century. How about a slave "rebellion" in New York City, how about more people burned at the stake than in the Salem witchcraft trials, how about dark byways and highways of old New York, barely transformed from its days as New Amsterdam, dark plots in dank places, shrill frightened tyrants overreacting with bloody retribution, burned ruins of an early African American village in Central Park?
One cannot make up this stuff, it is too real so it must be history at its best.
And written by one of our premier authors of history, a woman who makes our history live in The New Yorker to the acclaim of many, and yet whose best book, this one, is still too little known.
If you appreciate Harry Truman's remark that the only new thing under the Sun is the history you haven't read, then this is one to curl up with and marvel at; a great way to spend a rainy day or a dark night.

Good, but not great.
Format: Paperback
Kudos to Lepore for delving into an important, little known subject, which she does better than most historians. At times, however, I think she felt the need to put every little piece of information she got into the book. It was way too long. Some good research, but she has done better. Still, worth checking out. I like to think I know American history, but I know nothing about this awful chapter.

DAMN, this is a great book!
Format: Hardcover
All history books should be this detailed, this readable, this humane. Lepore knows how to write about a horrible, nearly forgotten episode in NYC history. Unlike many historians, she steps away from overt politics or raw emotion. She knows that this subject is too serious to be shouted. It is the rare history book that is packed with facts as well as knowledge.
I felt like Lepore was taking my hand and leading me through the smelly streets of lower Manhattan in 1741, like I could almost see the faces of...what were they, anyway? The victims of a horrible hoax? The demented planners of a plot to burn the city? Or something in between, where thieves can also be the keepers of ancient rites from a distant homeland, where the world is turned upside down?
I could go on and on, but just buy the book!

New York Burning
Format: Paperback
.
This is an important book that explores in depth what is usually only found in textbooks as a one-sentence summation:
"In 1741 there was a slave uprising in New York City."
Scholars will probably be happier starting with the Appendix and bibliography and then reading the book. The text is disorganized and uneven, and although this is non-fiction, the characters could have been more finely drawn. Peter Zenger's trail keeps popping up in unexpected places, often disconnected from the action the author is working on. Some sections are heavy on primary documents and period writings, others are more poetic.
Yes, I do understand the parallels with the Salem Witch Trials. The Salem Witch Trials get more press today because of Arthur Miller's "Crucible." Color and religion of the participants aside, both events are stories of group think and mass hysteria, fear and anger. There is plenty of room here for a first-class film or play to be written.
Read this book, learn from it. Expect to complain about it.

What You Didn't Know
Format: Paperback
Did you know that if you were a Catholic Priest on the streets of New York in 1747 that you'd be arrested and hung! Great book if you're interested in the times during which our founding Fathers were growing up. It'll give you a different concept on how slavery was different in NYC as opposed to in the South, and how many of the streets in NYC got there names from English magistrates. If you like history, especially of NYC, you'll love this book.
