The Magazine this week has surprised us with a special wine -coordinated by Maria Gonzalez - which says a passion for wine Julio Iglesias, the successful role-besides-of women with wine in all its facets, including consumption, in addition to reporting of tastings organized by Iberia during transatlantic flights, we suppose, and some exotic marriage .

The marriage, which was formerly limited-roughly-the white fish and red for meat - has I refer to my particular point of view, of paramount importance.
High quality wines are completely deflated by the type of food we eat, or conversely, some broth bully knows glory in certain occasions.

I am of the opinion that the food is not the only factor which influences the appreciation of what we're drinking. Personal fitness, environment, temperature and company are decisive in the outcome.

But what really impressed me, was the interview with Julio Iglesias, who admits to being owner of Bodega Montecastro , Ribera del Duero.
many years ago, before the wines of Ribera del Duero foothold in first line, remember that a client asked me, I mean a local family-friendly resort - a bottle of Pesquera .
"You mean Fisherman Fisherman white.
"No, red Pesquera.
Some months later in the program Luis del Olmo -Actors-Julio Iglesias Luis was telling that he had just uncorked a wine Super Ribera del Duero He spoke from his home in the U.S., and said it was Fisheries, which had good supply at home.
With these two taps, I could not wait to put this wine on the restaurant menu. Whenever you uncork a bottle, I remember Julio Iglesias.
I have not missed it, reading the interview, the very particular opinions of the star, which show an extraordinary love of wine that if we consider that no economic problems, he has allowed a particular winery of the best wines in the world, and loves share with friends and guests. Remarking-there-I fully agree that one can not drink alone. We must also bear in mind-that's what he says, that does not move you chrematistic no interest, nor in particular winery or even the company associated Bodegas Montecastro.

And as each day I will have less, what I do is drink it. Because if I do not drink, I say, maybe the woman drinks it for my son. Or father of my daughter. I'll be dead and the father is going to be ... ja, ja, ja. I have a beautiful story about it, will you listen?

I know the family, if you want, send a letter saying that we are interested in buying it. " A month and a half after the death sent a very nice letter, very nice, nothing abusive. Alcabes 15 days received a reply. It came signed by "Anjelica and Jack." And he said: "These wines are not sold. These wines to us and I drink Jack.
