Brancaia Tre 2007

The three, or “Tre,” in the title refers to the three Tuscan estates (Brancaia “Castellina,” Poppi “Radda,” and Brancaia in Maremma) and three grape varieties (Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon) that compose this wine. I’m partial to this wine’s flavor because it is aged in oak casks for twelve months and is associated with Carlo Ferrini. I couldn’t wait until next year to drink it.

It’s been more than a month since it came  out, and I haven’t said anything about my latest release, Seven Hills. I composed/made this instrumental piece on my computer to use in my first film, Persephone. Bits of it loop throughout the film over and over again, but Seven Hills is never fully heard in its entirety. Since I was pleased with how the overall composition turned out, I decided to release it as a standalone piece.

I found this bird’s nest beneath the juniper tree in my side yard. I’m not an ornithologist, so I have no idea what type of bird made it. The wind must have knocked it out of the tree. There were no eggs in or near the nest when I found it.
