On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, without orchestra or conductor 😉. Three humble souls playing an all BEETHOVEN program (Piano Trio No. 3 in C minor (Opus 1, No. 3) and Symphony No. 2 in D (Opus 36, arr. for piano trio by Beethoven)) with a few of the best players of instruments containing strings, Yo-Yo Ma (cello), Leonidas Kavakos (violin) and Emanuel Ax (piano). A true delight for lovers of Classical music this evening!

My favorite Moscato d'Asti, mineral drive just perfect, sweetness kept to the absolute minimum. We've been buying this bottle for almost 10 years, never enough in the cellar.

Sweet, tasty, and lightly bubbly. Loved it!! Best way to toast the end of the 2020 election!

More fruity than floral, with a very slight nose and a bold flavor of ripe fruits. Like biting into an amazing sweet apple, though, not overbearingly sweet. No residual sugars at the bottom.
