Wood business Links Marche, Valtellina, Steiermark, Burgenland
some subpages german - I like to make some links to special wine estates I visited on instruction travels with the winegrowers association I work for. First Umbria / Marche in March 2005 where I liked especially Fattoria la Monacesca, Fattoria San Lorenzo, Az. Agr. Malacari, Ristorante Rocco, Az. Agr. Luca Lanari & Az. Agr. Alessandro Moroder. Then Valtellina / Franciacorta / Valpolicella in March 2007 where my favorites where Az. Agr. Giorgio Gianatti, Az. Agr. Gian Paolo e Giovanni Cavalleri & Osteria della Villetta. Other region was Südsteiermark & Neusiedler See in March 2007 where i was impressed by Weingut Manfred Tement, Weingut Alois Gross, Weingut Josef Lentsch & Gasthof Zur Dankbarkeit. And the fabulous France trip to Loire: Chablis, Sancerre, Chinon, Savennieres, Burgundy in May 2007, look also to the report of Erwin (in german) ; there I was impressed especially by Didier Dagueneau, Le Laurier, Charles Joguet, Château de Marcay, Domaine aux Moines, Hotel de la Paix. Santé!

June 2005 - In the last winter my good doin Minolta S404 was stolen. After waitin a couple of detailed reviews on the Casio EX Z750 I decided to buy it mainly because has a long battery duration and a interesting movie mode. New pics will come mainly from this cam.

Vinitaly 2004 & RondoVino Merlot by Tony
subpages in german - Die Vinitaly in Verona und das letzte Treffen bei Armentarola unserer Weinrunde
Apr 2004 - One of the biggest wine fairs is again over. For every winelover the trip to Verona is a must.
A week later we have the possibility to taste in Armentarola (Val Badia) some of the finest Merlots of the Worlds (blind degustation). Tony "smuggled" a very "interesting" wine under the mainly 1995 Merlots: a bottle famed 1985 Chateau Petrus Pomerol (actual value on weinart.at : 1050 Euro). Until the exposure of the label the wine was not particularly outstanding. I wanted to empty my glass of it, when Tony asked me to pour everything into its glass ;-)

My new Asus M6800N Centrino Notebook
subpage in german - mit diesem neuen Laptop bin ich nun noch mobiler
Feb 2004 - with this Wireless LAN notebook I'm now much more mobile. In addition I can use the good Centrino & ATI Mobility features. Some good links about this piece: encke.net-Forum (german) , ASUS-TeK M6N

Enjoy Wine from South Tyrol (especially Lagrein)
subpages in german - Wein aus Südtirol geniessen, besonders Lagrein
May, Aug, Nov & Dez 2003 - One of my passions is to enjoy fine red wine, but like Andreas März I don't like "beaver wines" (excessive oak concentrated wines like "Super Tuscans" & Co). My favorites goes from tipical flavoured elegant to deep intensly but good to drink strong wines. Now 2 of my degustation notes are online: Bozner Weinkost 2003, JLF Lagrein Test, RondoVino Sauvignon/Lagrein, RondoVino Barolo/Brunello

English certificate level 6
Aug. 2002 - My 3-weeks intensive English education in Vancouver / Canada. For me a profitable experience, that no purely theoretical course can bring, especially linguistically and communicative.
