Mursi sworn in 370.
(photo credit:REUTERS )
Leading Egyptian women's rights activists called on newly elected President
Mohamed Mursi on Monday to appoint women to his cabinet and to increase women's
representation in government ministries.Mursi, who was sworn in as
president on Saturday, has previously pledged to include women in his new
government.Last week, Mursi told newspaper editors that he had no plans
to restrict women's rights, while his policy adviser, Ahmed Deif, told CNN that
one of the new president's first steps will be to appoint a Christian vice
president and a female vice president.Yet there are concerns among some
women's groups that a Muslim Brotherhood president could result in Egypt moving
closer to Islamist states like Iran and Afghanistan.On Monday, Dr. Azza
Kamel, the leader of Cairobased NGO Parliament of Women, told al-Watan News that
women's leaders want to arrange a meeting with Mursi to talk about women in the
new cabinet and women's role in the drafting of a new
constitution.Parliament of Women works to build the capacity of women in
local and national government, as well as raise awareness and mobilize public
opinion about women's roles in drafting Egypt's new constitution.Kamel
told al-Watan that in Mursi's four speeches as president, he had not addressed
women directly but had referred to "men of Egypt" and only later had said he was
talking about both men and women.In a pre-election speech, Mursi
declared that "the Koran is our constitution, [and] the prophet is our leader,"
raising fears that he would seek a constitution based on Shari'a (Islamic
law).Although Mursi himself has preached unity and inclusiveness, his
Freedom and Justice Party – an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood – formally
asserts that "Egypt is a civil state with an Islamic reference" According to a
statement from the party, Egypt's constitution must state that Shari'a law
should be applied "in all walks of life," because Shari'a "is the source of
wisdom and divine mercy, and as a response to the demands of the majority of the
Egyptian people who believe that the Shari'a is the best method to ensure the
reformation of the conditions of our society that will lead it to happiness and
progress."However, the new president's powers to influence the new
constitution have been reduced. On June 17, after voting closed in the runoff
elections, Egypt's military junta announced a constitutional declaration that
grants them wide powers, including the authority to draft a new
constitution.Kamel added that if Mursi adopted the political platform of
his Freedom and Justice Party, it would mean "a loss of rights for Egyptian
women who contributed greatly to the [Egyptian] revolution."Meanwhile,
Dr. Hoda Badran, the chairman of the Egyptian Women's Union, commented to
al-Watan that because of Mursi's background – including in the Muslim
Brotherhood – it would be hard for him to change his attitude toward
women.Badran said Mursi had an obligation to fulfill his promises to
appoint a woman vice president and to increase the number of women working in
government ministries.The feminist leader told al- Watan she was
concerned that there could be a decline of women's rights in Egyptian society if
the president followed the policies of his Freedom and Justice
party.More than 1,000 women's organizations cooperated to reestablish
the Egyptian Women's Union last year. On Monday, the organization began a
campaign on Facebook and Twitter to encourage women to tell Mursi what they
expected of him as president.The initiative, dubbed "I Demand from the
President," calls on women to send their demands to Mursi to be presented to him
on July 13."Did you know that Egyptian women make up 40% of Egypt's
households? Did you know that half of Egyptians live below the poverty line and
that two-thirds of them are women!!!" the campaign's mandate reads."Mr.
President, I don't want your protection, because I'm not weak, but I want my
full rights," "I demand equal citizenship," "Women's rights are human rights"
and "My voice is not awrah [an Islamic concept meaning the parts of the body
that should be covered] – my voice is revolution, revolution," were some of the
messages women posted on Monday.Meanwhile, on Sunday, prominent Egyptian
women's rights activist Nihad Abu al- Qumsan, said a third of Mursi's new
cabinet should be women.Speaking on Nile Television Network's Naharak
Saeed morning program, Qumsan, who heads the Egyptian Center for Women's Rights
(ECWR), said that women would be well suited to the health, tourism, finance,
economics, international relations and education ministries.Not all
Egyptian women's activists want a role in Mursi's government,
however.Speaking to the Aswat Masriya election news site on Monday,
activist Rabab al- Mahdi, who worked as a political counselor for expresidential
candidate Abdel Moneim Aboul Fotouh, said she would not accept a cabinet post
and preferred to stay in the opposition.Al-Mahdi, a political science
professor at the American University in Cairo, dismissed as "unfounded" women's
fears that an Islamist president may impose restrictions on
them."Egypt's problem is not the veil but there is certainly a problem
related to the status of women in Egypt," al- Mahdi told Aswat Masriya.

How to gain a free entrance ticket
I just happened, by chance, to visit Kilkenny Castle on the first Wednesday of the month ( March) and much to my surprise and pleasure I was told that I could get in for free on that day! This saved me 6Euros. It seems all of the historic sites owned by the Irish Heritage organisation offer this enticement to visit their properties on the first Wednesday of each month.
Anyway, bouyed up by this free access, I set off to explore the renovated Castle which is very much in the tradition of Victorian stately home filled with over the top ( to me at least) grandeur. To be honest I get quite annoyed when I think of the splendour that the succession of Butler to Ormonde families lived in when there was so much hardship all around them. I'm glad I took the time to explore and if you like stately homes then you will probably like this one but for me personally I wouldn't want to return.
- Castles and Palaces
The castle is always fascinating.
We love castles, new ones or old ones. The castle in Kilkenny has foundations dating from the thirteenth century and was built by William Marshall, Earl of Pembroke. Our youngest is a great fan of William Marshall so Kilkenny Castle was a must-see on this trip.
Unfortunately, photos are not allowed inside the castle so all my pictures are of the outside. There are quite a few photos on the web site below.
There is a tea room in the castle but I'm not going to recommend it. When we were there, they had one fellow cooking, waiting and running the cash register and he wasn't very efficient. He also wasn't really cooking; he was microwaving pre-made sandwiches and things. The tea might be okay but the food is mediocre. There are several excellent restaurants in town so better to go enjoy one of those.
Outside, there is a wonderful park and if you enjoy little tourist trains, you can catch one right outside the castle entrance.

Kilkenny Castle: The Butlers Did It
From the 17th century onward, Kilkenny Castle was owned by the Butler family, whose head was holders of the title "Marquess of Ormonde." Following Irish Independence, they were no longer able to maintain the property, and in the 1960s the family donated it to a conservation group which has done a superb job of restoring the the building and the grounds.
The public rooms of the castle are generally in very good shape - I was especially intrigued by the long and handsome picture gallery. The Butlers lived in considerable style, and were rightly proud of the heritage of their property. The Castle itself dates back to the medieval Norman occupation of this region, and it really does still remind a visitor that this was essentially an occupied fort for many centuries.
The Castle is strategically located next time to a flowing river. The Castle played a significant during the Wars of the 1640s, and following his conquest of the region, Oliver Cromwell himself supervision the partial demolition of its defensive fortifications. (Originally the courtyard was enclosed.)
I visited Kilkenny on a grayish day in early March, but I was still able to enjoy the blooming daffodils and crocuses on the grounds.

Breathtaking castle
The Kilkenny Castle is absolutly breathtaking. We were visiting the castle on a day that the tours of the castle were free and it was a self guide tour. We were a little late in the day and they were about to close so we were kind of in a rush but the entire tour was very nice and we learned alot. Afterward we walked the premises and took some pictures, as we were walking around the sky started to turn black and there was a huge rainbow. We had a great but quick time at the Kilkenny castle.

Kilkenny castle II.
It is from the rear of the castle you have another splendid view of the castle and its turrets, towers and battlements across the parkland. The entrance to the castle is from this side. Take a good look in the trees, there are plenty of squirrels to amuse you.
Kilkenny castle.
Built on a superb site along the River Nore from 1192 to 1207 to replace an earlier wood and stone one, by the first Earl of Pembroke, and then Guillaume de Clare,three of the original corner towers are still standing. The French influence can be seen in the main garden in front of the building. Sold on to the Butler family in 1381, it remained their property until 1967, although they had already moved out and sold the contents in the '30's. Although extensions had been added and restoration done the castle gradually deteriorated. Sold for a token £50 it is now maintained by the State, and holds regular exhibitions. The gardens and park behind are open to the public freely. Opening times etc can be found on the official site below.
Kilkenny Castle
Kilkenny Castle - home to an ancient aristocratic Irish-Norman family who were Butlers of Ormond. THE thing to see in Kilkenny. The grounds are lovely to stroll around in too. We did the tour and it was good, but nothing a leaflet couldn't already tell you.
However the Castle is stunning, it is amazing how well it looks on the riverside after hundreds of years.
Without a Tour
We arrived in Kilkenny for lunch but we did not have time to do a tour of the castle which was first occupied when Richard de Clare, 2nd Earl of Pembroke, commonly known as Strongbow constructed the first castle, probably a wooden structure, in the 12th century. The original Anglo-Norman stone castle was built for William Marshal, 4th Earl of Pembroke (c.1146-1219) during the first decade of the thirteenth century.
The best we could do was to walk around outside and a little bit inside. There are ornamental gardens on the city side of the castle, and extensive land and gardens to the front. We didn't get to see much of the interior - I understand the restored area in the central block includes a library, drawing room, and bedrooms decorated in 1830's style, as well as the Long Gallery. A suite of former servant's rooms is the Butler Art Gallery

Kilkenny Castle
Although built in 1195 by the first Earl of Pembroke, the Kilkenny Castle experience is dominated by the influence of the Butler family. The Butlers of Ormonde bought the castle in the late fourteenth century. They governed over the area around Kilkenny for 5 centuries and members of the family lived there up until 1935.
The portrait gallery is a beautiful room on the upper floor featuring portraits of the Butler family through the ages. A great view of the grounds can also be seen from the upper floor of the castle.

Kilkenny Castle
Kilkenny Castle was the first castle of many that we visited on our trip, at the time we did not realize that most of the sights included on the Heritage Card were supposed to have guided tours, they discontinued them here which sent an Italian tour guide near us into a tizzy. The Italian students she was with, however, didn't seem to care at all, most of them rushing through like there was a competition to see who could get done first.
They did give us a photocopied sheet containing information on each room, in some ways I prefer that to a guided tour as I get to take the information home with me and I can go at my own pace and didn't have to wait until an official tour started. The attached website goes into even greater detail if you want to read up before you go. No interior photos are allowed which is why I don't have any. Except that one I took before I saw the no photo sign...
Kilkenny Castle was built in the 12th century for William Marshal, 4th Earl of Pembroke and later became the principal residence for the Butler family for almost 600 years until 1971 when it was given to the people of Kilkenny for a token sum of £50.
Most of the castle was renovated in the 19th century and the room that impressed me most in the castle only dates back to the 19th century, the Picture Gallery Wing. The walls are covered in paintings but what is really striking is the painted ceiling and the cross beams with gilded animal heads.
I understand that there are gardens behind the castle but when I went to look around the backside of the castle the rain changed from a vertical to a horizontal position and we decided to look for a drier place to hang out for a bit.
Admission to the castle was included on the Heritage Card.
Kilkenny Castle, An Easy walk From Town
We walked up to the castle, it is only 10 minutes from the town centre and a fine example of how life was hundreds of years ago.
For those who wish to tour the castle there is an entry charge. We enjoyed walking through the extensive gardens and woodlands and enjoying the magnificent view over the River Nore and town.

Great Castle Tour, right in Town!
Much of this castle is beautifully restored, with original furnishings. Before it was restored, it had fallen into a bad state. They show that on the tour. I enjoyed the largest room,which has the tallest ceiling and old, old tapestries and oil paintings of former residents hanging. When the weather was too foul to walk outside, they would stroll in this room! The guide said that once a year they would invite the common townspeople into this room, to walk and gawk. The tour is very good & was worth the 5 Euro price.
You may walk around the large grounds without charge.
In the lower level of the castle there was a small art gallery, with modern art! The small gift shop is pretty good, too., the theme being Irish castles, of course.

Kilkenny Castle
Not exactly the medieval fortress visitors may hope to see, Kilkenny Castle is largely a reconstruction of how it looked in much later times (17th-19th centuries) before falling almost to ruins. Still, it's quite impressive and the guided tour shows how the aristocracy lived. Please note cameras aren't permitted on the tours, no exceptions. They have to be handed in to a kiosk before the tour starts and picked up again once it's over. Don't worry, it will be in safe hands.

Kilkenny Castle
This site of this castle has been occupied for over 1000 years. It is best known as the home of the Butlers, who owned it from the 1300's until 1967, when it was sold to the city of Kilkenny for 50 pounds. Most of the castle has been restored to what it was like in the 17th centry. The castle is pretty impressive, especially the long room which contains paintings of the Butler family and their friends. The castle has a pretty informative tour.
The tour lasts about 45 min and costs 5.40 (2.10 w/ student ID).

Laurie Penny: Decoys in boardrooms and pulpits won't fool the women of Britain
Feminism is the new tweed.
It's the latest Tory must-have accessory: just a little coy nod towards gender and equality can sex up even the dowdiest of political outfits and draw attention away from your worst features, like not having any actual plans to prevent a double-dip recession. David Cameron is desperate for the women's vote. Women in his parliamentary party like Anne Milton and Louise Mensch supposedly represent the new "faces of Tory Feminism", but their ideology seems to boil down to defending austerity and challenging abortion rights while wearing designer skirt-suits.
At a summit in Sweden this week, the Prime Minister claimed that the lack of women in British boardrooms is holding back the country's economic recovery, and pledged to do something vaguely about it. There are, of course, many types of feminism, and some of them are powerfully transformative – and some of them, like "Tory Feminism", tread the fine line between farcical and dangerous, on pretty kitten heels.
The notion that getting more women into boardrooms will somehow improve the economy airbrushes the fact that the boardrooms are still the problem. Talking about inviting more women into the FTSE 100 as a way of mitigating financial recklessness is patronising on two counts, suggesting both that women's naturally fluffy personalities will somehow soothe the testosterone-soaked trading floor, and that women who happen not to work in investment banks are stupid enough to swallow this nonsense as a substitute for actual intervention in the financial sector. Conservative women like Mensch, Milton and Theresa May have been open about the fact that "the Tories have never won without women", in other words "Tory Feminism" is primarily a vote-winning strategy. The point of feminism, however, is not to win women's votes, but to improve women's lives, and this Government is not unique in confusing the two.
Let's look at the numbers. There are approximately 1,100 people sitting on the boards of FTSE 100 companies, of which 15 per cent are women; the Government's desire is to see this increase to a whole 30 per cent. So we are discussing the careers of a maximum of 367 women. That's about enough women to fill the car park of a small branch of Waitrose. Meanwhile, there are over a million women out of work, the highest number since records began. Almost four million women work in the public sector, where pay cuts and pension cuts are due to hit the hardest.
Millions more women are being immiserated by the speed and savagery of austerity measures. The Fawcett Society describes the effect of cuts as a "triple jeopardy", whereby women will pay threefold for the Government's programme of wealth redistribution from poor to rich, women to men: once because of job losses, twice because of cuts in benefits and public spending, and three times because of care gap. Women will be forced to pick up the tab for the Government's cuts to basic care services. There will be elderly relatives to nurse, sick and homeless friends to care for, children to raise on tighter and tighter budgets as youth services vanish. Part of the reason the Government feels secure in making these cuts is that it expects women to do the work it no longer deigns to pay for, thanklessly, quietly and for free.
David Cameron still wants the women's vote. Of course, the Conservatives don't actually advocate equality on its own merits – the business case for feminism has to be made, hence Cameron's claim that "companies are run better if we have men and women alongside each other ... it's about quality, not just equality". The only women the Government seems truly to care about are those 367 women in that Waitrose car park. They're not the 1 per cent. They're not even the 0.001 per cent. They are a proportion of the working population so small as to be utterly irrelevant to any political body that did not want us to believe that improving life for people in the financial sector will somehow magically improve life for the rest of us.
Exactly the same trick is being played when men in positions of power talk about possibly allowing more women to become bishops, or possibly allowing a few more older women to retain their roles as BBC newsreaders once they are no longer universally alluring. These notional women are decoys – tokenistic appointments to put a female-friendly face on traditional structures. You can have as many lady bishops and lady bankers as you like, but that won't stop the church and the City from keeping women down. It's the difference between social mobility and social justice. Rather than raising up all women along with what Shulamith Firestone called our "sex class", we are supposed to be satisfied if a handful of women is allowed to scramble over the backs of others to stand alongside the men at the top.
Like most people who care about equality and sexual freedom, I am not half as worried about the lack of women bishops as I am about church groups being invited to set sexual health policy at the heart of government. Like most people who believe women's rights are about more than cheap political capital, I am not half as concerned about the number of women in the City of London as I am about the fact that the banking sector continues to be permitted to privatise its profit and socialise its risk-taking, leaving millions of low-paid working women and mothers to shoulder the burden of their financial recklessness.
Bear in mind that we have not actually seen any of these cosmetic changes yet. There are no concrete policies to invite more women into the pulpits or the boardrooms of top companies, and we have not been informed about any new appointments of older women to top roles at the BBC. So far, all we have is empty rhetoric about cosmetic changes.
A truly useful feminist movement within Westminster would need to be radical enough to talk to and about women earning less than £100,000 a year. That sort of movement is not unfeasible: all it requires is a sustained programme to recognise women's paid and unpaid labour at every level of society, understands women's liberation as inextricable from class struggle and values women's politics on more than a merely decorative level. Instead, we are offered "Tory Feminism" as window dressing – a venial attempt to divert our attention from the worst outrages of the most anti-woman British government in living memory.
For a party that claims to be feminist, the Tories seem to think women are stupid. They seem to believe they can enact policies to plunge millions of women into poverty while shoving a few ladies forward to pose and pout and smile for the cameras and mouth the party line, and women everywhere will gasp and squeal and vote Conservative. The women of Britain, however, can tell when politicians are faking it. We are not stupid, and we are not fooled by decoy feminism.

IBISWorld publishes the largest collection of industry reports so you can see an industry's supply chain, economic drivers and key buyers and markets.
The Landscaping Services industry has had to cope with slumping demand from each of its major markets over the past five years. However, the five years to 2019 are forecast to experience a rapid construction sector recovery. Steady per capita disposable income growth is projected to encourage households to return to outsourcing yard care. General economic recovery will likely boost commercial expansion, driving the need for industry operators that can maintain large corporate and resort campuses... purchase to read more

polyelectrolyteSyllabification: pol·y·e·lec·tro·lyte
Pronunciation: /ˌpälēəˈlektrəˌlīt /
Definition of polyelectrolyte in English:
A polymer that has several ionizable groups along the molecule, especially any of those used for coagulating and flocculating particles during water treatment or for making electrophoretic gels.
Example sentences
- Biochemists have known for many years that to get large charged molecules called polyelectrolytes to snuggle up, ions in the solution are essential.
- Even so, this apparent complexity would allow benefit from progresses in statistical physics, and scaling theories applied to polymers, polyelectrolytes, and polyampholytes.
- Transport of polyelectrolytes, in particular of nucleic acid fragments, through proteinaceous pores in membranes has also been reported.

|Churchill, Gordo, Robusto, Toro, Torpedo
|Ecuador Habano
Who is one of the largest tobacco growers in the world for over 80 years? The original grower and creator of Habano Ecuador wrappers? The tobacco supplier for ultra-premium handmades like Davidoff, Ashton VSG, Fuente, Montecristo, and many more? The answer to this riddle is probably one you don't yet know, but one you should, and one you soon will. The answer: Oliva Tobacco Company. At hand is an impressive new boutique brand, crafted only with the top 1% of all their tobaccos. These tobaccos were secured exclusively by one of Nicaragua's top factories, and Latitude Zero was born.
Latitude Zero takes its name from Ecuador, an homage to their supplier Oliva Tobacco Company's major growing area and the origin of the gorgeous wrapper leaf gracing their new premium brand. A R13E grade (Angel's Cut) Habano Ecuador wrapper from 2011 that's easily the finest I've ever seen. Inside, a bold cocktail of vintage 2010, Nicaraguan long-fillers all from a farm in Esteli dubbed 'The Jewel.' This combination promotes a powerful, heady smoke that's layered with complex nuances of nuts, pepper, oak, cream, and caramel. Elegant, extremely well-balanced, and brimming with flavor, Latitude Zero showcases the difference that truly premium tobacco makes.
"A nice cigar with an interesting combination of taste."EW of Virginia Beach, VA
"Just received my first box of torpedoes. After smoking several these new cigars over the course of the weekend, I'll say one thing, WOW! This cigar is well constructed and packed with all the characteristics and flavors of fine, well aged tobaccos. Great burn and consistency. This cigar may just be my next go to stick. Thanks CI."JD of TAMPA, FL
"Beautiful packaging, great draw, great taste! The freebie experimentals may be even better."DS of ROANOKE, VA
"I was smoking the 'zero latitude' last night and I thought this cigar is okay but this is not like any Oliva cigar that I have had, which is a brand I enjoy. So I was curious. There is the "Oliva Cigar Company" which is apparently different from Oliva Tobacco Co. The family-owned Tabacalera Oliva Tabolisa, known in the United States as the "Oliva Cigar Co.", traces its roots back to Melanio Oliva, who first began to produce tobacco in Pinar del Rio, Cuba in 1886. They make the cigars I like. The Oliva Tobacco Company is run by John E. Oliva, out of Tampa, FL. They are tobacco growers founded in Cuba during the 1920s. Not the same guys."CB of Murfreesboro, TN
"I like this cigar, it is well balanced. You get the same flavor from beginning to end with nice tones, particularly in the fine Nicaraguan tobaccos, spice and wood tones. It had a nice burn most of the time which show good aging of the tobaccos as well as the cigar after it was made. Professional construction, definitely not the overrated bundle cigars with fancy labels. The label was to big for me but the overall cigar was a great smoke. I will recommend it to my friends."YM of Tampa, FL
"I smoked the robusto vitola last night. It was an enjoyable cigar. The wrapper is so incredibly silky that I couldn't stop fondling the cigar. I'm not a guy that can pick out each individual flavor that comes across my palate but I did catch some nice flavors throughout the stick. I would say that this is a mild-medium bodied cigar with a mild-medium flavor profile. There is some black pepper around the half way point but definitely not a pepper bomb. I can't say that I was blown away by this stick but I can see keeping some in the humi. It's well worth the price of a 5-pack. I bought the sampler and got one of the experimental sticks as well but have not smoked it yet."BD of Tomball, TX
"I was given one of these Latitude Zero cigars for my birthday and I must say that I was surprised at its quality. Many times, when you get a "gift" of a cigar that you don't recognize, it's not much, but this one is an exception. The nutty, creamy, caramel flavors were there, as advertised, the construction was dead on and the burn was perfect. The wrapper is a thing of beauty. For a cigar in its price range, it is remarkably good. I'm pretty sure that I'll get some for myself. Then, I'll be able to give a gift to someone that won't sit in their humidor for years on end."DC of GAINESVILLE, FL
"Got a 5er of the Toro Gordo Latitude Zeros and let one acclimate in the humi for a week or so before I smoked it. Started out medium with a creamy texture and a nice sweet but not too sweet finish. Wonderful flavors of Nicaraguan tobacco reminding me of a good Fuente. Cigar took all of 2 hours to get to the nub and I still didn't want it to end. Pepper came in midway through the 2nd third and built to a tangy ending. The next few will rest for a few months to see how they age but I'll definitely be getting a box."WB of Hillsboro, OR
"I bought a box of these because I like Habano wrapped and Nicaragua filler cigars and because of C.I.'s description of them. Also, they are pretty reasonably priced. I smoked a couple shortly after receiving them and thought they were ok but nothing really special. Another cigar with a fancy box and over-the-top band, right? However, after resting in one of my humidors for more than three months these once "ok" cigars have transformed into a very flavorful, smooth, and complex smoking experience. Huh, everything C.I.'s description said they are! I guess it just goes to show you that you shouldn't be too quick to judge something. I'm looking forward to enjoying Latitude Zero as long as they make them. Thanks, C.I. for turning me on to them. You're the best!!!"TS of Elkhart, IN

Nicole Richie's Harlow Says Hi
Nicole Richie was spotted in the valley running errands the other day in Toluca Lake. The proud mommy has been talking about how much she loves motherhood and Grandma Richie is dishing on how advanced baby Harlow is already. Apparently she is saying words like "hi" and wanting to crawl. Pretty impressive for a three month old — no wonder Nicole looks so happy these days.

Steel Authority of India Ltd (SAIL) Chairman C. S. Verma on, Saturday, exhorted his sales force to focus on customers in rural areas, where incomes and aspirations were rising. "With per capita consumption of steel at only 15 kg in rural India, a vast potential exists for steel marketers to enhance sales in the segment," he said while reviewing the performance of the eastern region sales force at the company's central marketing organisation (CMO). The national average for per capita steel consumption is 57 kg. He said that an array of new products would come into the market on completion of SAIL's massive modernisation and expansion programme, now under implementation, and the sales team could help consolidate the company's market leadership through provision of more value-added products and services.

Saint-Hilaire Blanquette De Limoux Brut
Saint-hilaire - Languedoc Roussillon - France
There are few wine regions of the world with as much influence or fame as that of Champagne in France. The sparkling wines from this special area have long been associated with excellence and magnificent flavors, and much of their success has been down to the careful blending of fine grape varietals in order to achieve spectacular results. Most commonly, Champagne wines use both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir varietal grapes in more or less equal measures, often boosted by a small quantity of Pinot Meunier for extra bite. The Chardonnay varietal grapes offer their acidity and flavor to the bottle, and help with the dryness associated with quality in this type of wine. The Pinot Noir, on the other hand, gives strength to the wine, and gives Champagne its distinctive 'length' of character.
The southern French region of Languedoc Roussillon is one of the most important wine regions on earth, being responsible for over a third of France's annual output a vast quantity of wine which exceeds even the annual output of the United States. Despite the fact that Languedoc Roussillon produces such enormous quantities of wine, the quality of the region's output remains a priority for the wineries which operate there. Languedoc Roussillon takes great pride in the fact that could be considered one of the oldest wine regions in the world, with a history which stretches back thousands of years to the ancient Greeks, and remains highly important to this day. Vintners in Languedoc Roussillon work with a wide range of grape varietals, and the region produces a wide variety of wines, from still red and white table wines, to blended and aged wines, dessert and sparkling wines.
Year in, year out, France enjoys its prestigious reputation as the producer of the finest wines in the world. With a wine making history which spans several thousand years and owes its expertise to the Romans, it comes as little surprise that this most highly esteemed of the Old World wine countries continues to impress and enchant both novices and experts to this day. Despite the rise in quality of wines from neighboring European countries, not to mention the New World, the French wine industry continues to boom, with up to eight billion bottles being produced in recent years. However, France prides itself on always putting quality before quantity, and the wide range in fine produce is a testament to the dedication and knowledge of the wineries across the country. Indeed, from rich and complex reds to light and aromatic white wines, French wines are as varied and interesting as they are enjoyable to drink, making this country a firm favorite for wine lovers across the globe.
