“Halloween ... in the ancient barrel room of the winery Pietrasanta”

Written by CinziaTosini

Halloween festa stregata! It scares the night! All out late at night with festeggiam chaos. Witches, wizards and ghosts… Confectionery, pancakes, chocolates! What a great recipe! What a night deadly! Many haunted masks; many frightened faces; many sweets in the tummies; tante zucche in lumicini. It’ a party a po’ scary, with ghosts and witches galore! And with wizards and monsters in droves spend this night!

E 'already ... is it true that for me every excuse is good to be with friends! And when a few days ago and Lucilla Carlo's Cellar Pietrasanta they invited me to their event in the ancient barrel, I did not hesitate a moment.

I arranged immediately choosing dress to wear. As I say at every opportunity is the right outfit, and a 'well I'm around… the parrucca! But the opportunity was tempting not only to celebrate Halloween “in our own way”,  but to taste their wines and specialties that they had taken steps to prepare.

Several were the stars of the day…

We started with wine tasting… the wines of Saint Columban, l’unica Doc della provincia di Milano. The Farm Pietrasanta is its location in the old family mansion dating back to the mid-700. The six hectares of vineyards rise on a hill in the middle of the Po Valley, and include nine varieties (barbera, croatina, merlot, cabernet, sauvignon, pinot nero, Verdea, sauvignon blanc e riesling renano). In combination was served the "Raspadura",   Parmesan cheese said "Typical Lodigiano", served in puff read scraped from the surface of the shape young man with a special knife.

There were some typical cold cuts, cream of pumpkin soup, polenta with cheese Lodi, i ceci con porcini e chicchi d’uva e la crostata con marmellata di noci e cioccolato. A degna cornice ci venne presentato the book by Alessandra Sprouts "The Treasure of Count Notary",  and precious ceramics that have shaped the history of the house Pietrasanta.

At the end of a beautiful day,  removed “the costumes” concludemmo con la promessa di rivederci presto. Si perché Carlo e Lucilla sono rispettivamente Coordinatrice e Presidente del Movement of Lombardo Wine Tourism (MTV). This Regional Association nonprofit currently meets 89 cellars united by the desire to promote the wine tourism with the promotion of dedicated reception and refreshments initiatives.
