My summer started when another 1/c cadet, four 3/c cadets, and I reported aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Valiant, a 210-foot medium endurance cutter. Although the Valiant was home-ported out of Naval Base Mayport, Florida, I was never north of the Florida Straits during my time on her. We picked up Valiant south of Key West on a law enforcement patrol in the Florida Straits. Underway would be the operative word describing my time aboard the cutter, as 37 of the 42 days I was attached to Valiant were spent out at sea; first on patrols in the Florida Straits and later in the northern Caribbean, primarily in the Windward Passage between Cuba and Haiti. Although the copious amounts of sea time did mean a lack of reliable communication with family and friends, it did give me a plethora of operational experience that I feel some of my other classmates might have missed out on—and I still got some amazing port calls in Key West, Guantanamo Bay, and Grand Turk.
In the Coast Guard they say that District Seven (the southeastern U.S., where I was serving aboard Valiant) is the "tip of the spear" operationally, and that was unquestionably true for my time on Valiant. I certainly have to tip my hat to members of that crew, who were chiefly responsible for the interdiction and repatriation of almost 300 illegal Cuban and Haitian migrants during my month and a half on board. The hard work that went into performing at that high level certainly gave me a greater appreciation for all that the big white-hull cutters do. I was especially appreciative of the opportunities to participate in gun exercises, flight operations with a Dolphin helicopter from Air Station Borinquen, and migrant operations. I also got valuable experience breaking in as both Conning Officer and Deck Officer (the person responsible for the driving and operations on board a cutter), which gave me a chance to utilize what I had learned in my Nautical Science courses at the Academy.
As much as I enjoyed the first half of my summer aboard Valiant, I got a chance to experience a totally different side of the Coast Guard during the second half at Air Station Clearwater (Florida). As a cadet who hopes to go directly to flight school from the Academy (keeping my fingers crossed!), it was an amazing opportunity to spend five weeks with aviators and flight crews, learning how the air station operationally supports search and rescue and law enforcement operations in District Seven. I was able to not only learn more about flying and the aircraft, but also all the logistical and mechanical services that keep Coast Guard aircraft flying. I was especially grateful to all the members of the air station who were kind enough to give me experience both working on the aircraft and participating in operations with rescue swimmers and load masters.
My biggest takeaway from this summer is that no matter how much you think you know about Coast Guard operations, there is always more to learn. Participating in migrant interdictions on board Valiant and on aircraft out of Clearwater gave me a greater understanding of a Coast Guard mission that I previously had little exposure to. Additionally, my operational summer gave me a greater appreciation for the hardworking personnel across the Coast Guard. The willingness of the crews on the cutter and at the air station to include me in their day-to-day tasks only confirms what I already knew—that members of the Coast Guard l are truly top-caliber employees and people.
Well, that pretty much sums it up. The next blog I write will most likely be when I am back on the beautiful grounds of the Coast Guard Academy campus. If you have any questions for me about the Academy or Coast Guard Operations, I invite you to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Until next time, fair winds and following seas!
More about James.
From the minute we enter Swab Summer, all of us cadets are told about something called the Long Blue Line. It's a metaphor for the connection among every Coast Guardsman, past, present, and future. Honesty is revered here, and if I am to follow that virtue, I have to tell you I never really gave much thought to the concept of the Long Blue Line. Yes, it's pretty cool to remember that generations of inspiring and strong Coasties have come before me, and that generations will follow but that was usually the extent of my reflection. That visit from a past graduate made me better understand the Long Blue Line.
This man wasn't in the Coast Guard anymore and I couldn't tell you if he had even set foot on base since his commencement. Yet, he is probably a paradigm of a member of the Long Blue Line for that very reason. Being a part of the Long Blue Line is not just saying you're a temporary part of some rich history, and you had a job where you got to ride a boat or a helicopter, and went to some old school in Connecticut. It is knowing people, seeing how they impact your life, and how they've impacted the lives of everyone else in the fleet. It's acknowledging that you'll never meet anyone quite like the people you met while you sailed and flew and saved. It's taking a few minutes to detour out of your crazy life to your alma mater and say "hello" to the memory of your classmate, even after you've said "goodbye" to the service itself.
There's a reason people are quick to tell me and other cadets about the people they knew in the Coast Guard, whether they themselves were ever directly involved or if they had family and friends who joined. The thing about the Long Blue Line is you don't ever lose your place. You could make it your career, or a first job; either way, you'll touch someone in both known and unknown ways. Because you hold that place, you might very well find yourself in front of the Memorial Wall years after graduation and, because you hold that place, a quiet cadet watch-stander may be contemplating the meaning behind your seemingly simple actions.

5. New England is cold: For those readers hailing from southern states – New England is cold! And it's just not cold during those typical winter months, it honestly doesn't get what I would consider warm (consistent mid-60s) until May. That being said, all the snow can be fun; we missed a total of three days of classes (two back-to-back) and had a few late base openings and early closings due to the inclement weather that descended on New London this winter. Just be prepared to bundle up in the wintertime!
4. The CGA grounds are hilly: The bluffs that the Academy are situated on offer spectacular, scenic views of the Thames River. However, these views do come at a price so be prepared to feel like you're always walking uphill when on campus. On the bright side, the hills do work miracles for your calf muscles (as do the staircases in Chase Hall – don't even think about using an elevator).
3. The Academy is kinda like Hogwarts: Silly as it may sound, CGA and the fictional wizardry school do have a lot of similarities. When you arrive you are sorted into different companies (i.e., "Houses") where you dine, live and make the majority of your friends. Although there is no Slytherin Company here, there are rivalries that come out in inter-company sports (Quidditch, however, isn't offered).
2. The summers are awesome: Back on a serious track, a lot of cadets will tell you that the CGA summers really make this place stand out as special and different than civilian schools. Gaining practical knowledge in real Coast Guard units or learning leadership with your classmates are rewarding experiences that would be tough to mimic elsewhere. Not to mention, all the new and exciting places your training will take you (I've gotten to go to Bermuda, France, Canada, Maine, Boston, and Key West to name a few).
1. The friendships you make run deep: To end on an important note, because of all the rough military training you will go through with your classmates, you will develop bonds that run deeper than any friendships that you had in high school. It is no wonder that so many cadets marry each other or are the best man or maid of honor at a classmate's wedding. The connections I have made with people at the Academy are something that I honestly treasure the most.
Thanks for reading! As always, if you have any questions for me about the Coast Guard Academy, Coast Guard, or military life, feel free to shoot me an email at: email@example.com. If you are a Class of 2019er, I look forward to meeting you in the fall. Go Bears!
That's pretty much the journey from Swab Summer to the school year in a nutshell. And frankly, a lot of it is tough. Chances are you'll fall down MANY times, no matter how confident you are at the beginning, particularly during a grueling Swab Summer. It is then that your shipmates will pull you back up and that you will in turn lend them your hand when they fall. Then together, you will move on to the more advanced slopes, with even more turns and steeper hills, and even more chances to fall. The good thing about that is the increased number of opportunities to recover and learn.
As a rising 2/c, I am thrilled to be in the part of the ski story when I get to put those blasted mechanisms of gravity-related mockery on someone else's feet and guide them down the slope. I only hope they don't fall quite as often as I did over the summer! To the future cadets of the Academy, and especially to my swabs, the Class of 2019, I wish you the best of luck as you start gathering your gear for a long day in the snow.
We found out our 3/c summer assignments and I was lucky enough to be put on the first phase of Eagle, where we'll make our way down to the Bahamas and end in Staten Island, New York. And it'll only get better from there. Along with six other 4/c and two 2/c, I'll be on the Coast Guard Cutter Mellon, coming from Japan and making its way back to its home port, Seattle, Washington. Out of the nine of us going, four are bilingual. We have two Korean-speakers, a Japanese speaker and myself, speaking Mandarin. Being able to sail on completely different coasts and go overseas is something I never would have thought I'd be able to do so early on in my Coast Guard career. It's going to be a good summer.

'Carlisle isn't racist', says city's MP
The MP for Carlisle has defended the city after comments were made by a solicitor in a soldier's trial.
The MP for Carlisle has defended the city after comments were made by a solicitor in a soldier's trial.
Comments made in court by a lawyer defending a Carlisle soldier who posted offensive comments online have led to a debate over the extent of racism in the city.
19 year old Warren Butler appeared in court yesterday, after admitting improper use of a communications network.
He had posted offensive remarks on Facebook after the body of three-year-old Mikaeel Kular was found in January.
On the day the body was discovered, Butler published comments about the little body's death, which were described as 'disgusting'.
Comments by Butler's defence lawyer have raised a wider issue, though.
Fabienne Macey told the court Butler had grown up in a racist family, and that reactions to his comment about the death of three-year-old Mikaeel Kular might have been be different in Carlisle.
We asked Carlisle MP John Stevenson if he thought the city was a racist area.
It was far from a tame pre-season encounter when Carlisle United took on Preston North End. The Blues won 4-3.
A group of solicitors have launched a campaign to save Kendal Magistrates and County Court from closure.
Bosses say the site will continue to be managed safely and securely throughout the industrial action.

Lewis' ready to play his role for Gators
American import John Lee Lewis Jr is prepared to do his bit for Shepparton Gators and help take them to the next level.DAMEN FRANCIS April 3, 2014 4:10am
It's a long way from Louisiana to Shepparton, but John Lee Lewis Jr is hoping to take his game to another level with the Gators.
John Lee Lewis Jr's head may be in the clouds, but his feet are placed firmly on the ground.
While the 203
Lewis, 22, played in 95 games in three seasons at the NCAA division one outfit, before finishing up at the end of season 2012-13.
However, he started in just one game in his senior year on a roster that included the likes of highly-regarded guards Raheem Appleby and Kenyon McNeail.
His idol is Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, not because of his talent, but his work ethic.
''(At LTU) we had a lot of good scorers and guys that will go on and play at a higher level than I will,'' Lewis said.
''I was really an energy guy and a role player. You just have to do anything you can to get minutes on the floor.
''It all depends on the style of play and how you fit into certain teams, but you see guys go overseas and blow up and I'm hoping to be one of those guys.''
Shepparton is a long way from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where Lewis was born and raised.
Lewis came to Australia last year as part of a Eurobasket Summer League tour, which pitted the visiting team against various SEABL and Big V teams to showcase the players' talent.
The tour ended in Albury, where he caught the eye of coaching staff at Albury-Wodonga Bandits and it was only as a victim of circumstance he ended up in Shepparton.
''They wanted me to stick around until their import got here, I think he was having a few problems with his visa,'' Lewis said.
''I only trained with them for a day before he showed up. After that I made some phone calls and ended up getting in touch with (Greater Shepparton Basketball Administrator) Tony (Long).
''Of all the teams that showed an interest, Shepparton seemed like the one that wanted me most.''
Lewis hardly set the world alight on his Gators debut at the weekend, but the production — 14 points, seven rebounds, three assists and two steals — was respectable and is almost certain to improve.
It was his first game since the end of the tour nearly a month ago.
At more than 100
Lewis sees few differences between the level he was playing in the US and that played in Victoria, including the gap between SEABL and Big V.
While happy to do his bit for the team, he is aware his size, experience and skill set mean people are looking at him as the player that could take the Gators to the next level.
''Back home a lot of guys go and play overseas and they tell me the same thing, that there is an expectation that you bring things to the team, so I had that in mind when I came over here,'' he said.
''I'm here to fit into the puzzle and I'll play whatever spot (Gators coach) Russ (Parker) puts me in.
''I'm playing with a group that plays really hard and everyone is eager to jump up a level and that's my aim as well.''

Kate Spade Signature Spade Harmony
|By: Michelle M.
I have a serious crush on this op-art purse we featured last week. But much like that sixth grade crush I had on a football player, it simply isn't going to happen. Though the geometric print of this Kate Spade Signature Spade Harmony doesn't have that amazing tile pattern, it's reminiscent enough to help me get over the other. Plus, it's on sale for $171 at Kate Spade.

Annie Leibovitz 'downsizes' to
1.25M New York apartment five months after selling her8.5M compound to get out of debt
Celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz has purchased a $11.25million apartment in Manhattan's Upper West Side, downsizing from her prior residence - a West Village townhouse which she sold in January for $28.5million.
The three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath duplex is located in a pre-war building on Central Park West.
The co-op building, which has 48 units, is also home to Robert DeNiro and was the previous residence for Sting and his wife Trudie Styler.
Exterior view: Annie Leibovitz's new Central Park West apartment is in the same building as Robert De Niro's home
Downsizing: Ms Leibovitz purchased the three-bedroom duplex for $11.25 million - far less than the townhouse she just sold for more than $28million
Ms Leibovitz, 63, bargained the property down from its original listing price of $14.5million, and officially purchased it approximately three weeks ago after the property had been on the market for nearly six months
Her new home includes sweeping views of Central Park, and an overall classic pre-war feel.
Icon: Ms Leibovitz is best known for her portraits of celebrities such as a Nicole Kidman, Brad Pitt, a pregnant Demi Moore
The apartment boasts a formal dining room, a large living room, and an eat-in kitchen.
Its top floor is accessible by a spiral staircase which leads to a master bedroom and two smaller chambers.
High-ceilings, hardwood floors, and crown moldings adorn the entire residence.
Ms Leibovitz's move uptown from her previous West Village address represents a turning leaf in her troubled finances, reports the New York Post.
The famous photographer, who frequently shoots for Vanity Fair and Vogue, was reported to be $24million in debt in 2009. She eventually reached a long-term agreement with a California-based private investment firm, which helped manage her debt and market her vast portfolio.
A source told the paper: 'She's made great progress on reducing her debt. Moving from a $30 million home to an $11million home is called downsizing. She is being responsible — and she continues to do great work at the highest levels.'
In January this year, Ms Leibovitz finally sold her 10,200-square-foot townhouse to Lauren Bush and David Lauren for $28.5million.
The home is actually three townhouses that Ms Leibovitz had conjoined together - the construction costs of which reportedly tucked her even deeper into debt.
She had used one townhouse for living, one for office space and one as guest quarters. The trio of properties all surround a slate patio and private courtyard garden.
The brick buildings, which Ms Leibovitz began assembling in 2002, date back to the 1830s, and include a total of seven bedrooms, five-and-a-half bathrooms, and 13 fireplaces in all.
Million dollar mansion: Ms Leibovitz's old compound, which she sold for $28.5million in January 2014, is composed of three separate townhouses - one for living, one for office space and one as guest quarters
Touching upon Ms Leibovitz's recent financial troubles that almost laded her in bankruptcy, a source told Page Six at the time of the sale: 'This deal is another step toward her financial recovery. It is another step in the right direction.'
Leibovitz is best known for her portraits of celebrities such as a Nicole
Kidman, Brad Pitt, a pregnant Demi Moore, and even the Queen.
However in 2009, she was sued over a dispute over the terms of a loan repayment that involved her townhouses and photo archives, which creditors claimed she had put up as collateral, and saw her narrowly miss having to file for bankruptcy.
A breach of contract lawsuit was filed against Ms Leibovitz by Art Capital Group for $24 million regarding the repayment of a $15.5million loan that she took after experiencing multiple financial challenges.
In a short matter of time Ms Leibovitz lost her father, mother, and her long-time partner, Susan Sontag, while simultaneously welcoming twins into her family, and bankrolling the renovation of her three West Village properties.
Art Capital Group withdrew its lawsuit against Ms Leibovitz a few
months later in 2009 and extended the due date for repayment of the $24
million loan.
The compound's sale is said to have likely covered a majority of what Ms Leibovitz had to still repay.

A retail theft call led Wauwatosa police to arrest a drunken driver in possession of stolen meat from area Pick 'n Save stores.
According to police:
A man tried to run out of the grocery store on Mayfair Road with four rib eye steaks. Store staff were able to get the meat back and the man ran across the railroad tracks to the city's public works yard.
Employees had noticed the man gesturing to a vehicle that was creeping along behind him. Officers pulled over the driver, a 23-year-old Wauwatosa woman, and saw numerous packages of meat stolen from West Allis and Wauwatosa stores in the back seat.
She was slurring her words and said she had smoked crack cocaine earlier in the day. A crack pipe was found in the vehicle. She had a blood-alcohol content of 0.09, above the 0.08 legal limit for drivers.
When police called her parents to let them know she had been arrested, they said the Oak Creek Police Department had called looking for her because her vehicle was involved in a retail theft at a Pick 'n Save in that city.

Duni Vacations
Sofia, the national capital, is located about 220 miles (354 kilometers) to the west of Duni.
The area around Duni is wonderfully endowed with fabulous things to see and do, from perennial tourist favourites to hidden gems that still await discovery. For more things to see and do, try the Burgas Beach and Sea Gardens in the vicinity of Bourgas, which is roughly 15 miles (24 kilometers) to the southeast of Duni.
Around 60 miles (97 kilometers) to the north of Duni is Varna, a regional city which is home to Varna Aquarium, Aladzha Monastery and Varna Archaelogical Museum. Sea Garden, Dormition of the Theotokos Cathedral and Ticha Stadium are more attractions in Varna that should be included on every visitor's list.
For a glimpse into the spiritual side of Duni, be sure to visit the region's many monasteries. Visitors with an interest in history will adore Bulgaria's fortresses, old towns and ruins.
Don't forget to check out Bulgaria's trademark waterways. Canoeing and swimming are both popular ways to get active here. Follow your passions and book one of the winery tours and city walking tours. There are plenty on offer in and around the Bulgaria area.
At the end of your time in Duni, put the lens cap back on your camera, spend your last of your levs, and bid a fond Doviždane (farewell) to this wonderful spot.

EPA to Review Flame Retardants
The EPA says it will assess 23 commonly used chemicals, with a specific focus on flame retardant chemicals, to ascertain any potential risks to people's health and the environment.
This effort is part of the Toxic Substances Control Act Work Plan that identifies commonly used chemicals for risk assessment.
Americans are often exposed to flame retardant chemicals in their daily lives; flame retardants are widely used in products such as household furniture, textiles and electronic equipment. Some flame retardant chemicals can persist in the environment, bioaccumulate in people and animals, and have been shown to cause neurological developmental effects in animals.
The agency will begin evaluating 20 flame retardant chemicals, conducting full risk assessments for four of the flame retardants: TBB, TBPH, TCEP and HBCD.
In addition, it will assess eight other flame retardants by grouping those with similar characteristics together with the chemicals targeted for full assessment. The EPA will use the information from these assessments to better understand the other chemicals in the group, which currently lack sufficient data for a full risk assessment.
The EPA will also conduct an analysis of how eight of the 20 flame retardant chemicals transform and move in the environment. These chemicals were selected because they are likely to persist in the environment, bioaccumulate in people and/or have high exposure potential, but there is no adequate information to conduct full risk assessments.
A full list of the chemicals announced for further assessment is available here.
During its review of data on flame retardant chemicals in commerce, the agency also identified approximately 50 flame retardant chemicals that are unlikely to pose a risk to human health, making them possible substitutes for more toxic flame retardant chemicals.
The EPA will use information that is available through a wide range of public sources. It is also seeking submission of additional relevant information on these chemicals, such as unpublished studies and information on uses and potential exposures. The deadline to submit such information is May 30.
To submit relevant information on these chemicals or find more information on the TSCA Work Plan and flame retardant chemicals for risk assessment, click here.
In February, California officials proposed changes that would eliminate the use of toxic flame-retardant chemicals and change the way it conducts flammability tests. The measures are aiming to overturn a 1975 law, known as Technical Bulletin 117, that requires polyurethane foam in upholstered furniture and children's products to withstand a small open flame for 12 seconds. Under the new law, testing would be done with a lighted cigarette, rather than an open flame.

Fire departments struggle with Ohio part-time work law
State law says that part-time township employees without health and pension benefits aren't supposed to work more than 1,500 hours a year
By Elizabeth Gibson
The Columbus Dispatch
COLUMBUS — Township fire departments have long struggled with a state law that caps the number of hours part-time firefighters can work.
Ohio law says that part-time township employees who don't receive health and pension benefits aren't supposed to work more than 1,500 hours a year. At least, the law appears to say that.

It will only take one visit to the city of Charleston to fully fall in love with its warm Southern charm, riveting history, and decadent culture before you decide to return with the prospect of buying a home. Located in a geographically beautiful region referred to as the Lowcountry, Charleston truly has it all. With a list of awards as long as my arm, Charleston has been recognized as "America's Most Friendly," "Second Best-Dressed," and "America's Sexiest City". Awards like that can make a city sound flashy, but you'll soon find that the things you love the most about Charleston are often the simple things like watching a sunset against the backdrop of the unique Charleston skyline or enjoying a stroll through the historic streets of downtown.
People travel from all over to experience what local chefs call "sophistication in southern cuisine." It's not only sophisticated, but it's international and unique with restaurants experimenting with traditional Southern dishes while adding a pinch of Thai zest or perhaps a dash of Japanese essence. The Gullah is a group of African Americans who make their home within the Lowcountry, and within this culture you can find some great food with dishes like Cream Da Crab Soup and Shrimp & Grits.
Named the #1 Tourist City in America by Conde Nast for a reason, you won't run out of activities for the family to enjoy. The golf courses in South Carolina are plentiful as well as beautiful, and there is always live music to be found on any day of the week. From Tanger Outlets to mom-and-pop antique shops, Charleston is without a doubt one of the best shopping destinations in the nation.
Begin your love affair with Charleston as you search through the lovely homes on New Home Source to find the one for you.

One of the ways to increase scalability of services – and applications – is to go "stateless." The reasons for this are many, but in general by eliminating the mapping between a single client and a single app or service instance you eliminate the need for resources to manage state in the app (overhead) and improve the distributability (I can make up words if I want) of requests across a pool of instances. The latter occurs because sessions don't need to hang out and consume resources that could ...

What's New in the World of Application Analytics By @MikeAnand | @DevOpsSummit #DevOps #API #APM #Microservices
Software is eating the world. The more it eats, the bigger the mountain of data and wealth of valuable insights to digest and act on. Forward facing customer-centric IT organizations, leaders and professionals are looking to answer questions like how much revenue was lost today from platinum users not converting because they experienced poor mobile app performance. This requires a single, real-time pane of glass for end-to-end analytics covering business, customer, and IT operational data.

Approved this February by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), HTTP/2 is the first major update to HTTP since 1999, when HTTP/1.1 was standardized. Designed with performance in mind, one of the biggest goals of HTTP/2 implementation is to decrease latency while maintaining a high-level compatibility with HTTP/1.1. Though not all testing activities will be impacted by the new protocol, it's important for testers to be aware of any changes moving forward.

You often hear the two titles of "DevOps" and "Immutable Infrastructure" used independently. In his session at DevOps Summit, John Willis, Technical Evangelist for Docker, covered the union between the two topics and why this is important. He provided an overview of Immutable Infrastructure then showed how an Immutable Continuous Delivery pipeline can be applied as a best practice for "DevOps." He ended the session with some interesting case study examples.

The Internet of Things. Cloud. Big Data. Real-Time Analytics. To those who do not quite understand what these phrases mean (and let's be honest, that's likely to be a large portion of the world), words like "IoT" and "Big Data" are just buzzwords. The truth is, the Internet of Things encompasses much more than jargon and predictions of connected devices.

Modern DevOps Tool Kit By @Logentries and @NewRelic | @DevOpsSummit #DevOps #Containers #Microservices
Auto-scaling environments, micro-service architectures and globally-distributed teams are just three common examples of why organizations today need automation and interoperability more than ever. But is interoperability something we simply start doing, or does it require a reexamination of our processes? And can we really improve our processes without first making interoperability a requirement for how we choose our tools?

I really enjoy teaching and hope that comes across with those of you that have taken some of the photography courses I have taught. And now I just wanted to let you all know about some new teaching I'll be doing and another meetup group I just started (because I had so much free time I had to do something else, lol)
Anyway, I am now a certified NRA instructor and have started a meetup group for gun owners and would be gun owners. If you know how to shoot, great! Please join we'll have Range Days and hopefully other events. If you are looking to learn about guns, pistols, CHL, etc, then I'll be instructing those things as well. It will be great for newbies that want to learn but aren't sure where to start. I hope to also be offering "Personal Protection Inside the Home" and "Personal Protection Outside the Home" classes very soon.
Don't worry, I still like photography and motorcycles, It is just that I had classroom space and have been teaching my son about firearms and hunting so I thought this might also interest some of you as well.
It's free to join the meetup group and the web address is http://www.meetup.com/North-Texas-Gun-Shooters/
Check it out and let me know what you think or just sign up!

Nicolas Joly - Loire Valley - France - Anjou-Saumur - Savennieres
Professional Wine Reviews for Nicolas Joly Coulee De Serrant Aoc Coulee De Serrant 2011
Rated 90 by Robert Parker
Nicolas Joly's golden-yellow colored 2011 Clos de la Coulée de Serrant shows a very deep and clear, mineral bouquet of ripe fruits, hot stones and herbs, followed by a rich, round and profund, very mineral palate. The wine is far from being developed, and the finish is still slightly bitter and astringent. The potential, however, should be good. When I retested the wine from the same bottle three weeks later it had a very elegant mid-palate with a very nice fruit expression, though the finish was still slightly bitter. Finally, I was not fully convinced.

Vintage: 2011
The year 2011 was an interesting year for many northern and central European countries, as the weather was more than unpredictable in the spring and summer. However, in most countries, the climatic conditions thankfully settled down in the late summer and fall. The result of this slightly difficult year of weather in France was a set of surprisingly small yields, but overall, these yields were of a higher quality than those harvested in certain previous years. A fantastic set of wines was also made in Italy and Spain, and the Rioja wines - when released - are set to be very good indeed. Austria also had superb year in 2011, with almost fifty percent more grapes being grown and used for their distinctive Gruner Veltliner wines than in the year before. Possibly the European country which had the finest 2011, though, was Portugal, with wineries in the Douro region claiming this year to be one of the best in decades for the production of Port wine, and the bright, young Vinho Verdes wines. In the New World, the Pacific Northwest saw some of the best weather of 2011, and Washington State and Oregon reportedly had a highly successful year, especially for the cultivation of high quality red wine grapes. Chile and Argentina had a relatively cool year, which certainly helped retain the character of many of their key grape varietals, and should make for some exciting drinking. South Africa had especially good weather for their white wine grape varietals, particularly Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, and many South African wineries are reporting 2011 as one of their best years in recent memory.
Varietal: Chenin Blanc
For centuries, the Chenin Blanc grape has been grown in its native France, and in many other countries around the world (most notably in South Africa). These green skinned grapes are revered for the fact that their high acidity makes them extremely versatile, and Chenin Blanc wines can range from the fascinating, sweet and viscous dessert wines made by allowing noble rot to develop on the fruit, to dry and crisp sparkling crémants, or simple, elegant still white wines. Their key feature is that they are considered to be a highly 'transparent' grape, allowing the features of their terroir to come through in the glass, and the fact that they can carry a beautiful range of tropical fruit flavors such as pineapple, guava and banana.
Region: Loire Valley
Within France, the one region most closely associated with fine white and rosé wines is surely the Loire Valley. With over eight controlled appellations, and a relatively large expanse of land covering this wide valley, the Loire Valley is an ideal location for wineries wishing to produce large quantities of excellent quality vines for their wine production. Indeed, this region has been associated with excellent white wines for over a thousand years, with it once being the favorite wine region for the crowned heads of England, France and beyond. Today, it produces a wide range of white wines, and several rosé and red varieties also. It is also widely celebrated for being home to some of France's most lively and fruity sparkling crémant wines, which more than match those produced in nearby Champagne.
Country: France
French winemakers are subjected to several laws and regulations regarding the wines they produce, and how they can be labeled and sold. Such procedures are designed to increase the overall quality of the country's produce, and also to ensure that wines made in each particular region or appellation are of a character and type which is representative of the area. Thankfully for consumers of wine world-wide, the French have a particularly high reputation to uphold, and seem to do so flawlessly. Every year, wineries from all over France produce millions upon millions of bottles of fine wine, making the most of their native grape varieties and the excellent terrain which covers most of the country. From the expensive and exquisite red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy, to the white wines and cremants of central France, the French are dedicated to providing the world with wines of the highest quality and most distinctive character.
