Park Square Tower
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Park Square Tower was a 666-metre (2,185 foot) supertall skyscraper that was approved for construction in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It was supposed to be located in the district of Park Square. When it was originally stated to be completed in 2010 it would have 150 floors and would have been the tallest hotel in the world, overtaking the Burj Al Arab in the same city. The total cost of the project was expected to be $1.97 billion. The architect of the building was Artec Consultants.
According to SkyscraperPage, the project apparently has been canceled.[when?][why?]

The present invention relates generally to a medication recordkeeping apparatus adapted for use in administering medication, and, in particular, to a medication recordkeeping apparatus, used with a medication-containing vessel, to visually record and indicate whether or not a dose of medication has been consumed and to precisely indicate when the dose was consumed. The present invention is an improvement over my invention disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,752,087 (the '087 patent) issued to me on Jun. 21, 1988, herein incorporated by reference, and further discloses a novel holder for such an invention.
This invention relates to a device for accurately recording and visually indicating in a convenient and inexpensive manner the consumption of doses of a medication and the precise time the dose was consumed. Many patients, while ill, have difficulty remembering whether or not they have taken their medication and many times where the patient is unconscious, a health care professional must have some accurate means of identifying whether or not a particular medication has been consumed and if so when.
The '087 patent discloses a recordkeeping indicia which allowed recordation of a consumed dosage medication by removal of a friable coating associated with that dosage. However, problems are presented when the indicia of the '087 patent are employed on a container which is kept in a patient's pocket or purse, or when the container is kept with other medications in a drawer in that the friable coatings are often inadvertently removed by contact with objects or containers there adjacent. The integrity of the recordkeeping indicia is thereby jeopardized.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a simple, inexpensive and accurate visual method and apparatus for recording a patient's consumption of a medication in direct or close proximity to the medication containing vessel while being connected to the vessel.
It is a further object of this invention to assist a patient who is consuming more than one medication by providing a physical recordkeeping device to prevent confusion as to which medications they have consumed and when. Additionally, for nurses and other health care providers caring for a large number of patients, the present invention provides an accurate and easy method of medication recordkeeping administered to each patient.
A further object of this invention is to provide a medication recordkeeping device which protects the integrity of the recordkeeping data.
A further object of this invention is to provide a medication recordkeeping device of inexpensive manufacture adaptable to many forms of medications as well as consumption occurrences and dosages as desired.
Numerous other advantages and features of the invention will become readily apparent from the detailed description of the preferred embodiment of the invention, from the claims, and from the accompanying drawings, in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same.
The present invention comprises an inexpensive and accurate method and apparatus for recording the consumption of a medication and being associated with the vessel containing the medication. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the invention consists of an adhesively backed label embossed or printed with characters which are coated with a friably removable coating. The characters may be symbols referring to either numerals or letters which may represent dates, dosage amounts or occurrences of consumption. The friable coating is removed from the label exposing the character or symbol beneath providing a permanent visual record of the medication consumed. Such a label may be placed upon the medication-containing vessel preferably on the side of the container opposite the prescription label. The label preferably contains a space for the patient's name, as well as important medical information, and/or a bar code for recording and/or providing important information. In an alternative embodiment the label may be provided with an indicia protective sheet which covers the label and the friable coatings so that said coatings are not inadvertently removed. The cover is preferably clear to allow viewing of the recordkeeping indicia and is easily removed from and replaced onto the label for ease of recording consumption of a dosage.
In another alternative embodiment, the invention consists of a sheet instead of a label which is utilized in close proximity to the medication and patient. The sheet, like the label is comprised of characters and numerals masked by a friable removable coating which is removed upon consumption of medication. The sheet is preferably connected to the medication container via a housing apparatus, so that the sheet cannot readily be separated from the medication container. The housing apparatus may be provided with a displacable sheet cover to prevent unintended removal of the friable coatings while allowing easy recordation of consumed dosages.
The invention affords ready adaptability to any number of dosages to be administered to a patient. The invention is generally tamper proof, because once the coating is removed from the label or sheet exposing a character it may not be recoated. Additionally, manufacture is intended to be of an inexpensive nature such that the label may be readily applied to the medication containing vessel, or readily slipped into the housing container and attaching the medication container thereto.
Further understanding of the foregoing may be had by reference to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a prior art medication recordkeeping apparatus;
FIG. 2 is a front view of the prior art apparatus of FIG. 1, characters imprinted and without the friable removable coating;
FIG. 3 is a front view of the prior art apparatus of FIG. 1 with the characters imprinted on a sheet and coated with a friable removable coating in which the first two characters are exposed and a third is about to be removed;
FIG. 4 is a front view of the prior art apparatus of FIG. 1 with the characters fully masked by the friable removable coating, in which the label is in the process of being removed from the protective backing to reveal the adhesive backside;
FIG. 5 is a front view of one embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 6 is a front view of another embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 7 is a side perspective view of the housing apparatus of the present invention;
FIG. 8 is a front perspective view of the housing apparatus of the present invention, with the sheet of FIGS. 5 or 6 positioned for insertion therein;
FIG. 9 is a side view of the housing apparatus with medication container attached; and
FIG. 10 is a top view of the housing apparatus of the present invention.
FIG. 11 is a front view of an alternative embodiment of the present invention having a protective cover over the label.
While this invention is susceptible of embodiment in many different forms there is shown in the drawings and will be described herein in detail, a preferred embodiment of the invention. It should be understood, however, that the present disclosure is to be considered an exemplication of the principles of the invention and is not intended to limit the spirit and scope of the invention and/or claims of the embodiment illustrated.
Referring now to FIG. 1, a perspective view of a prior art medication recordkeeping apparatus is shown wherein a label 10 a is adhesively affixed to a medicine bottle 60 in which four dosages have been consumed as indicated by the removal of the friable removable coating from the first four characters 30 a.
FIG. 2 is a front view of the prior art apparatus with characters imprinted or embossed onto label 10 a without the friable removable coating. This label or sheet may be coated in a conventional manner with a friable removable coating so that it may be readily applied to a medication containing vessel.
FIG. 3 is a front view of the prior art apparatus with characters imprinted or embossed upon sheet 10 a coated with a friable removable coating in which a user is attempting to expose a third character signifying a consumption of a third dosage of medication. The conventional friable removable coating may be removed through the use of a coin, writing instrument or a dull edge of a fingernail.
FIG. 4 is a front view of the prior art apparatus with characters 30 a fully masked by the friable removable coating 40 a on label 10 a in which a user is preparing the label for application to a medication containing vessel such as a bottle as shown in FIG. 1 in which the label is peeled up and away from its backing to reveal adhesive backside for application to a vial.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the prior art medical recordkeeping indicia label 10 a applied to a medication containing vessel 60 in which characters 30 a, shown generally, are exposed on label 10 a. A friable removable coating 40 a is shown coating the majority of characters 30 a on label 10 a.
FIG. 2 is a front view of the prior art label 10 a disposed on sheet 20 a in which characters 30 a shown generally are embossed or printed upon said label 10 a. The friable removable coating as shown in the accompanying figures is not shown in FIG. 2.
FIG. 3 is a front view of the prior art label 10 a and sheet 20 a in which characters 30 a are embossed or printed on label 10 a. A friable removable coating 40 a is shown generally covering the majority of the characters 30 a. A fingertip or fingernail 50 is shown removing the friable removable coating 40 a from character 30 a. The friable removable coating 30 a is removed from the first two characters identifying the numerals 1 and 2 in which a third character is in the process of having the coating removed by fingertip 50. The remaining characters 30 a are coated with a friable removable coating 40 a. When label 10 a is not removed from sheet 20 a, it can be used in proximity to a medication-containing vessel although not attached thereto. However, in such an instance, the sheet 20 a can easily be lost or separated from the vessel with potentially dire consequences.
FIG. 4 is a front view of prior art label 10 a fixedly adhered to sheet or backing 20 a in which characters 30 a are entirely masked by friable removable coating 40 a. Fingertips 50 are in the process of removing label 10 a from backing sheet 20 a in order that label 10 a be removed from sheet 20 a to be placed and adhered to on a medication containing vessel 60 as shown in FIG. 1.
FIG. 5 illustrates one embodiment of the present invention wherein label 10 b includes area 70 for printing a patient's name. Similarly, label 10 b includes area 80 for printing important information of the patient, for example important medical history, allergies, or warnings not to administer certain medication which may be harmful or incompatible with other medications. Accordingly, label 10 b can be personalized to an individual patient, thus preventing confusion or mix-ups as to which label goes with whose medication. Further, label 10 b of FIG. 5 is also provided with data recording lines 90 wherein important data can be inscribed in addition to characters 30 b. For example, the exact time when a dosage was administered can be written down, as well as the initials of the person who administered the dosage. This information can be useful in preventing hourly dosages from being administered in too short of time. Further, if a nurse on one shift had an important question for the person who administered a dosage on an earlier shift, that person could be readily identified and contacted.
FIG. 6 illustrates an alternate embodiment of FIG. 5 wherein area 80 includes a bar code 85. Bar code 85 could contain the patient's important information such that when bar code 85 is scanned, the patient's important information is provided on a display. Additionally, each time a dosage is provided, the bar code 85 can be scanned to automatically record the date and time of the dosage.
FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the housing apparatus 100 of the present invention. Because label 10 b could be too large to be applied to a small medicine vessel, label 10 b can be affixed to sheet 20 b and used in close proximity to the vessel. However, the sheet 20 b may become separated from the vessel or lost. Thus, housing apparatus 100 is provided for housing sheet 20 b therein and thus preventing sheet 20 b from being separated from a small vessel.
Housing-apparatus 100 includes frame 110 having an open slot 120 for insertion of sheet 20 therein, and a display window 130 for displaying label 10 b. Housing apparatus 100 may also contain an information area 140 having a name area 142 and an important information area 144 which could include a bar code 146 therein. Frame 110 is mounted to a mounting bracket 150. Mounting bracket 150 includes a bottom mount 160 and is designed to receive a medicine container.
FIG. 8 illustrates an exploded front perspective view of the housing apparatus 100 and sheet 20 b. Sheet 20 b is to be inserted in slot 120 of frame 110. Label 10 can then be seen and accessed through window 130. Information area 140 can include a name area 142 and important information area 144, which can include bar code 146. Frame 110 is mounted to bracket 150 having mount 160 shown in phantom. Preferably, though not necessarily, the window 130 can comprise a clear indicia protective cover 135 to protect the friable coatings on the sheet 20 b from being inadvertently removed. The indicia protective cover 135 is preferably clear to allow a patient to view which dosages have and have not been consumed. The idicia protective cover 135 may be attached to the frame 110 in which case the sheet 20 b would be displaced from the frame 110 to remove a friable coating when a patient has taken an associated dosage. Alternatively, the indicia protective cover 135 may be removable from the frame 110 thereby allowing removal of the friable coatings through the window 130 when a dosage has been consumed.
FIG. 9 illustrates a side view of housing apparatus 100 having a medicine container 180 mounted thereto. Frame 110 is mounted to mounting bracket 150 having bottom mount 160, which receives container 180. In this manner, label 10 b can be placed on sheet 20 b and inserted in frame 110 to remain in close proximity to container 180, while the container label 185 remains free to be read.
As can be seen in FIG. 10, housing apparatus 100 preferably includes a means 170 on bottom mount 160 for removably fastening the medicine container 180 thereto. Means 170 could be any suitable fastener such as adhesive, which would selectively hold the container 180 until removed by a user.
FIG. 11 illustrates another alternative embodiment of this invention wherein the label 10 b is provided with a removable indicia protective cover 190 to protect the friable coatings from being inadvertently removed from the label 10 b due to contact with objects stored adjacent to the medicine bottle 60 upon which the label 10 b may be affixed. The removable indicia protective cover 190 is preferably constructed to be clear so that a patient may view the label 10 b there through and discern which dosages of medication have been consumed. The removable indicia protective cover 190 is preferably attached to the label 10 b at only one side 195 of the label 10 b. The removable indicia protective cover 190 may therefore be lifted from the label 10 b by a free side 200 of the removable indicia protective cover 190 to expose the label 10 b and the friable coatings thereon. The appropriate friable coating may then be removed to indicate the consumption of a medicinal dosage and the removable indicia protective cover 190 replaced over the label 10 b. The removable indicia protective cover 190 may be kept adjacent to the label 10 b by an adhesive means 205 located adjacent to the free end 200 of the removable indicia protective cover 190. Alternatively, the removable indicia protective cover 190 may be kept adjacent to the label 10 b by creating an electro-static or other molecular force known in the art between the removable indicia protective cover 190 and the label 10 b or between the removable indicia protective cover 190 and the medicine bottle 60.
The foregoing specification describes only preferred embodiments of the invention as shown. Other embodiments may be articulated as well. The terms and expressions therefore serve only to describe the invention by example only and not to limit the invention. It is expected that others will perceive differences which while differing from the foregoing, do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention herein described and claimed.

Ensminger said he feels like he has a new lease on life. "It's a brand new life," said Ensminger. "I've been close with this whole team. No matter what happens, I feel like they are going to stay behind me. This team has good chemistry and the more we work together and the more we hang out together; I feel like this team has something special."
"They said that the last week or so in practice that I've been making alot of strides," explained the senior quarterback. "I've been making plays and not turning the ball over alot. Coach Dykes said he believes in me. Alot of coaches have been coming up to me and that's big for me. For even the defensive coaches to come up and say 'Hey Steven, we believe in you.'"
Ensminger will have a talented group of receivers and a veteran offensive line to work with. The offensive line brings back seven players with starting experience.
Coach Dykes seemed please with the work of the offensive line so far in camp. "I think our offensive line has played well," he said. "When you look at us, Lon Roberts hasn't practiced in a couple of days and Stephen Warner has done a good job of sliding in there and playing at a high level. That's what is going to happen. You are going to have things happen to your football team, guys need to be away for different reasons sometimes - you are going to have injuries and things like that - so it's important for the next guy to step up."
"That's always important for the offensive line," said Coach Dykes. "You want to have versatility with some players. The thing you want to have is eight or nine guys and maybe ten guys that you feel like you can win with and sometimes thats hard. So if you have some guys that can play two or three positions it allows them to get on the field and contribute a little quicker."
Ensminger has a lot of talent to work with in this current group of receivers. "We have great receivers," he added. "They have a lot to learn and we're working on it.
Coach Dykes talked about Tim Molton and Ahmad Paige specifically. "They are both real talented guys that are working on being consistent," he said. "The thing I like is they are making strides. If you go and look at them in the spring, they are different players than they are now. They have more confidence and they are playing faster. They are both more comfortable coming off a year on the sidelines. It takes a little time to get back to playing at a fast pace and fast nature and they are getting back there. They are doing a lot of good things; they are doing some technique things that are going to help them."
"What they have to do now is learn how to be good receivers," added Coach Dykes. "The biggest thing about being a good receiver is being consistent, day-in and day-out in their approach to the game. The most important thing for a wide receiver is to be in the right place at the right time. There's a lot of guys who get there different ways, some guys get there with speed, some guys get there with quickness, some with great route running. What we want those guys to do is they possess the speed and quickness; we just need to get them on the same page with the quarterbacks."
Cornerback Josh Victorian said the new group of receivers will not only be good for the offense, but they help the secondary get better as well. "It helps a lot because last year we were a more run-oriented team," said the senior cornerback. We didn't have as many guys and we had a lot of guys hurt. This year, we have a ton of receivers. That helps a lot going against different kinds of guys; tall guys like Tim [Molton], speedy guys like Richie Casey. It helps a lot."
Victorian has emerged over the last year as a leader in the defensive secondary. He made several big plays over the last half of the 2009 season, including the big interception return against Boise State.
"It was a lot of hard work but we had a lot of guys get injured," explained Victorian. "I didn't really have a choice. I just wanted to help my team and one thing led to another and a couple of plays happened. It was mostly just trying to keep fighting with it and staying with it and helping my team when they needed me."
The offense and defense are getting a lot better as they go up against each other in practice. Both units seem to be progressing nicely as camp enters week two. With the opening kickoff scheduled for September 4th, the Bulldogs look to be on schedule for a successful start to the season.

The Dragons' Den star's guide to the perfect pitch: James Caan's top tips to win people over to your idea
With entrepreneurship on the rise in the UK, I am often approached by many people who want to get funding and either start or grow their businesses.
I am also often asked for advice about what makes a good investment pitch. There is no hard and fast approach that you should rigidly stick to. However, there are certain points you should try to include as they are likely to help make your start-up appear all the more appealing for a potential investor.
Below are some of my top tips for a winning investment pitch.
Dragons' Den: James Caan is now an expert when it comes to the perfect pitch
1) Make eye contact - with everybody concerned.
may be pitching to more than one person, so ensure you address
everybody, whether it's the people who will actually be funding you or
the PA who may be taking notes.
2) Set the tone with a confident opening statement.
appear unsure of yourself or apologetic for being there - however it's
important you don't immediately start talking about how great your
product or service is either. If it's that good it will speak for
itself. It's far better to begin with a thank you, build up a rapport
with them and then discuss the background.
3) Relate to your audience
Your research should have provided you with plenty of information on them, and the more you can link your idea to what they have previously done, the better the chances of you nailing your pitch.
What are you putting into this?
It's a question every investor wants the answer to. I am a firm believer that you cannot be a part-time entrepreneur, certainly if you want to grow a business of real scale.
Demonstrate your commitment to the project as soon as you can – don't leave it to the end of your presentation. By telling the investor at the start what you are putting into it, you are laying down a firm marker and showing your drive.
Remember investors are generally very choosy – after all, it's their hard earned money they are parting with – and they need to be convinced beyond all reasonable doubt that you are capable of making your business a success.
Don't get hung up on equity
It's something I came across a lot on Dragons' Den – entrepreneurs not wanting to give away what they deem to be too much equity.
But you need to ask yourself a simple question – would you rather own 60 per cent of a thriving, commercially successful business, or 100 per cent of nothing?
Remember investors don't just bring capital to the table, but also experience and contacts. If you can, consider negotiating the type of deal where you give away a certain amount of equity to begin with, but are able to buy stakes back every time you hit certain targets.
This will act as an additional motivator to both you and the investor – the better results you produce, the more profitable the business becomes for the investor and the more equity you can buy back.
Tell me about your team
If you are a one-man band then it will be a lot harder for you to get investment.
Put together a strong team and get them to come along to the pitch. In my experience, it is very rare to have one person that is an expert in all the various facets of a business, so surround yourself with experts.
Of course there may be some people who have agreed to join only if you receive investment – this isn't a problem.
Simply have their profiles available for the investor to see that there are other people who believe in your proposition.
What this also does is tell them how committed you are to attracting talent.
Businesses can only move forward if they continually bring on board highly skilled people – and by showing at an early stage that you recognise this fact, you are showing your business is capable of scaling up.
Show proof of demand
During my career I've seen literally thousands of pitches, and one of the things which separates the good from the bad is the level of testing that has gone into the idea.
Rather than spending lots of time and money on the perfect prototype, get out there and speak to the people that matter – the customers. Get their feedback and determine the level of demand there is for your business.
If you come into a pitch and tell me that you have x amount of buyers already lined up, that automatically increases your chances of investment. You have proved there is a viable market for your idea and for an investor there is nothing better to hear.
Be realistic with your projections
This is often the downfall of many a pitch. I have entrepreneurs tell me about the phenomenal growth they expect in the next three years, when their current figures and the market both say different.
You will only get investment based on facts, not fiction. I would expect you to have a firm grip on your numbers and be able to withstand any sort of difficult questions about them.
Just as importantly, you need to be realistic about expansion plans. If you currently have less than 5 per cent of your domestic market, it is unlikely you will be in a position to expand overseas any time soon. Before you try and crack Chicago, make sure you've conquered Chiswick!
Know your investor
With the vast amounts of information available nowadays, your preparation should be spot on.
And if you are pitching to somebody with a substantial net worth, there is likely to be plenty of data about them.
Being able to go into a pitch and discuss the investor's background, or a recent deal they made, gives you a lot more credibility.
To this end, ensure you are pitching to the right type of investor as well. If you are looking for something between £10,000 to £100,000 then an angel investor is usually your best port of call, whereas if you are looking for major seven-figure sums, then you would generally need to approach private equity firms.
It is also good to target companies that have a track record in your sector.
At Hamilton Bradshaw, for example, we are generally approached by recruitment entrepreneurs due to our history in this sector. If you have a tech based investment, then you should look for firms that have specialists in that particular space.
Don't over-complicate it
Detail is important but you don't want to have dozens and dozens of slides filled with graphs and jargon.
Many investors believe that if they can't understand a business within a short space of time, the customers won't either, so you need to be direct and to the point.
In the modern business environment it's always important to have clear Powerpoint slides that are well presented and show the relevant information.
These slides will form the basis of what you are saying, and I would also advise printing off a copy to give to your investor to look through afterwards. A nice little touch would be to have copies of your slides on a USB stick, branded with your logo.
Remember though not to be constrained by what is on your slides. Detail is important but your pitch itself needs to be direct and to the point. Many investors believe that if they can't understand a business within a short space of time, the customers won't either.
Make a good impression: my pet peeves
You are most likely pitching for a substantial amount of money and presentation is crucial. If you want to be taken seriously, then dress seriously.
A bit of colour is fine but don't go into the biggest pitch of your life with some sort of novelty tie or accessory just to stand out, as it will make me think this pitch is not as important to you as it should be.
And if you're wearing black trousers with white socks, or if your shoes are scuffed, that also instantly creates a bad impression.
These may seem like minor things but they tell me that you don't pay enough attention to detail – and if I'm backing you to run a business, that's not a trait I look for.
Of course keep in mind the company you are pitching to – if they are a modern, casual type business then you wouldn't want to go in with a three-piece suit!
You may be nervous but don't let this translate in to you rushing your words or waffling, particularly when you are trying to answer any tough questions.
If you don't know the answer to something then tell them you are unsure but will email them with the answer later that day. Investors can sense when you are trying to blag or bluff your way out of a situation, and this is one of the most off-putting things you can do.
You will most likely have a glass of water available – use it to take your time and compose yourself.

Heart screening for student athletes
Memphis, Tenn. - Athletic participation has doubled in the last 10 years. There are 7.7 million high school athletes and 450,000 college athletes. Athlete health screening has been a hot topic in the U.S. in an effort to decrease and detect athletes who are at risk for sudden cardiac death. Le Bonheur Children's Hospital Pediatric Cardiologist Alex Arevalo, MD, discussed screening guidelines and when athletes need to see a cardiologist.
"I believe every athlete should be screened," Arevalo said. "It is important to know if a child has any symptoms that should be addressed by a doctor."

For this week's top curated picks, we went for cool patterns, unusual materials, and all-around standout items. It's March, it's practically spring, and it seemed like high time to liven up our accessories drawer.
We're sure this double goose look will get its share of commentary.
1. Double goose pendant on Lux Fix: This week, Lux Fix introduced a sale called "Animal Magic." Of all the accessories, this two-headed goose necklace ($255) was our hands down favorite. Come on, it's a two-headed goose, and it's even handmade.
Featured this week on Of a Kind, this necklace is made by hand in New York City.
2. Mercury collar on Of a Kind: Longer than a "collar" but equally tough-chic, this 30-piece limited edition necklace ($150) from the designer Less is just so cool. We love the mix of smoky quartz, brass, and iron.
This clutch by Malini Murjani manages to look both classic and unusual.
3. Resin clutch on AHAlife: This leather-lined resin clutch ($295) is more lightweight than it looks, and lies flat, but opens up to an accordion shape — so it'll fit more than meets the eye.
We like this statement piece from Fallon, the diffusion line that accompanies the New York jewelry collection Fenton.
4. Bijan necklace on L-Atitude: Among the recently added items on the global shopping site, this gold plate and buffalo horn necklace ($175) caught our eye — it'd be useful for dressing up pretty much any otherwise simple outfit.
This nifty pair of earrings was among the women's accessories picks on Svpply.
5. Ramu gold earrings on Svpply: These earrings from A Peace Treaty ($220) touch on the tribal trend that just won't quit and still look delicate at the same time.

Adega Pena das Donas Ribeira Sacra Verdes Matas Mencia 2008
Other Red Blends from Ribera del Duero, Spain
Winemaker's Notes
100% Mencia
Critical Acclaim
Wine & Spirits - "2008 Ribeira Sacra Verdes Matas Mencía There's something comforting about this wine, as if entering the eye of a coastal storm where power and intensity surround you in a calm, almost perfect equilibrium. It's not an easy wine to describe, though it generated more descriptors than most-mountain berries, wild strawberries, mountain flowers, acacia, honeycomb, fennel seed, freshly turned earth. And chorizo. Personally, I didn't want to leave this glass once I tasted it. The wine has a life of its own and seems to welcome you in. "
Adega Pena das Donas Winery
The project Pena das Donas, S.L. was established in 2005 by two partners, both in love with wine tradition in the area, who share a vision of innovations both in viticulture and winemaking to bringing a new, distinct personality to the wines of Adega Pena das Donas. Jesús Vázquez Rodríguez (viticulture and winemaking) has been linked for many generations to these vineyards; Antonio Lombardía Crespo (Agricultural Engineer, and general management) has worked for long time as viticultural consultant for some entities and wineries in the area. Starting in the vineyards, Pena das Donas differentiates from other in the DO by dramatically reducing the yields compared to the rest of the viticultors of the area. The winery is recently constructed, and focuses production on their own 5 Has of vineyards, and the vineyards under their management and control to complete the production. All the vineyards are located in the slopes of Sil riverside, planted in very dramatic terraces.
The place Pena das Donas appears in old legends, still known by the inhabitants of the area. It is a small hill on the riverside of the Sil that sits in front of what was a Benedictine Monastery. In these legends, it is said that in the past there was a tunnel between the hill and the Monastery through which the monks could communicate with the outside world. Some more elicit versions point also that through that passageway women (nuns) were introduced in the Monastery. View all Adega Pena das Donas Wines
About Ribera del DueroView a map of Ribera del Duero wineries (rib-EHR-ah del dwehr-oh)
Notable FactsThe wines of Ribera del Duero are mainly red – white wines here are not exported or revered. The reds come primarily from a variation of Tempranillo, called Tinto Fino or Tinto del Pais in this region. Garnacha and Cabernet Sauvignon are also used, but not so often. The best wines of the area are refreshing yet sturdy and complex, with an ability to age and mature gracefully.
About Spain
The most popular red varieties of Spain include Tempranillo and Garnacha (Grenache). Whites don't garner quite as much recognition, but there are some regional varieties not to be missed, like Albarino and Verdejo. The popular red regions of Spain include Rioja, known for its outstanding wines of the Tempranillo grape; Ribera del Duero, producing high quality reds from Tempranillo and Garnacha; Galacia, with the sub-region of Rias Baixas, home to the deliciously crisp and floral Albarino grape; and Priorat, a region increasing in popularity with its high-quality cult reds. Other regions of note are Rueda, growing the Verdejo grape, La Mancha, a wide desert region, covered in the most planted white variety in the world, Airen, and Jumilla, making wines based on Monastrell (Mourvedre).
Spain's wine laws are based on the Denominacion de Origen (DO) classification system, devised in the 1930's. A four tiered system, the most basic level is Vina de Mesa (table wine) followed by Vino de la Tierra (country wine), DO and at the top DOC. Currently, only Rioja and Priorat have DOC status, while over 65 DO's scatter the country.
Most DO regions are classified and regulated by how long they age the wines. On a red wine label, one may find the terms Crianza, Reserva or Gran Reserva, denoting the wine's barrel and bottle time. Crianza is usually two years between barrel and bottle (the time in each depends on the DO and/or the winemaker), Reserva up to 4 years and Gran Reserva 5 – 6 years. Classifications of each region and wine are controlled by the region's Consejo Regulador.
