Thinking back on our 3 years of blogging, from Ruarri’s First Post and all his amazing storytelling on wine as the elixir of life and a unifier of the world, to Jake’s wizard tech guides, to Brad’s millennial generation expose, to Meg’s wine-your-diet, to my rants on sustainability and spirituality, to all the other amazing content from our various contributors, we’ve created a dynamic vortex of ideas. What’s been greatest of all is having people find these ideas, some from 2 or 3 years ago and still give us feedback. With our first harvest experience this past fall in Italia, we brought all these ideas to life by finally connecting to the source and creating some amazing elixirs. And it’s not just the liquid that represents our ideas, but the sustainable environments from which it is produced. Thus, we find it natural to take our ideas, and our environments, and put them in a bottle… a bottle of GrapeThinking.

Taste Palace
Posted in Design, Energy, Environment, Family, Food, Health, Sustainable by Greg on October 14, 2009
Found an amazing place right outside of Siena where they grow sangiovese, olives, fruits, vegetables, herbs, nuts… all in balance or promiscuo as they say. Not a vineyard, not a farm… I call it a taste palace, maybe there’s a better name out there. I might work with them to install a major solar setup and some biohydrogen generating algae ponds. In my dreams, right?
