点评:WHY GO TO TUSCANY WHEN WE HAVE RAHOVEC ???
Artifacts in the town of Rahovec trace wine making in this region of Kosova back several thousand years.
Patrick and I had an amazing experience visiting the vineyards of “Kosova Wine” at the invitation of it’s proprietor and gracious host Fatmir Shehu.
We were very exited to visit since we had the good fortune to enjoy his exquisite wines on many occasions in New York and Saranda, Albania.
We began by touring the beautiful hills covered with vineyards with grape varietals such as Vranac (known as Sangiovese in Italy), Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, to name a few.
Fatmir spoke with passion and deep knowledge about each grape and explained its characteristics. Wine growing is his family’s multi generational legacy, which he preserves with tremendous pride. We also learned from him about the countryside and it’s traditions as well.
Afterwards we headed to the Kosova Wine winery. There we were welcomed by its Oenologist who gave us an introduction to the production methods of their famous wines. Then Fatmir led us to his winery’s cellar for an exclusive wine tasting.
Fatmir, thank you for sharing your piece of heaven with us!

翻译:当我们有拉霍维茨时为什么要去托斯卡纳???
拉霍韦茨 (Rahovec) 镇的文物可以追溯到几千年前科索沃这一地区的葡萄酒酿造历史。
帕特里克和我在“科索沃葡萄酒”的业主和亲切的主人法特米尔·谢胡的邀请下参观了葡萄园,获得了一次奇妙的经历。
我们非常高兴能够来访,因为我们有幸在纽约和阿尔巴尼亚萨兰达多次品尝到他的精美葡萄酒。
我们首先游览了美丽的山丘,葡萄园里种植着弗拉纳克(Vranac)(在意大利被称为桑娇维塞)、西拉、赤霞珠、雷司令、长相思和霞多丽等葡萄品种。
法特米尔充满热情和对每种葡萄的深入了解,并解释了它的特点。葡萄酒种植是他家族几代人的遗产,他非常自豪地保存着这一遗产。我们还从他那里了解了乡村及其传统。
随后我们前往科索沃葡萄酒酒庄。在那里我们受到了酿酒师的欢迎,他向我们介绍了他们著名葡萄酒的生产方法。然后法特米尔带领我们到他的酒庄的酒窖进行了一次独家品酒。
法特米尔,感谢您与我们分享您的天堂!
