Ladie and germs I was down in Gaiole last weekend for the end of the harvest at my friends place, Casa al Vento (the wine is excellent BTW!). Here are photos from the event:

We tasted the must - basically the fresh juice (without the skins, etc.) - it was absolutely delicious!

I have heard that it is a lot of fun but I haven't ever gone. It looks pretty!

My Internet Explorer cannot open the link and keeps aborting the operation and I am quite annoyed with it.

No idea what that could be - I looked it all over several times... all seems in order.

Actually I'm surprised the page wont load on IE because the only time this seems to happen is to the "other" browsers and that isn't often either.
The reason I switched to Google's Chrome browser is because it's FAST!

Well that was a tease! I can't see them. Maybe it's the barracuda filter....

Anthony, it is blocked for me too...I get the same error message as Ruth. I tried both at work and at home.
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

Does is actually say "aborted operation"? Can anyone take a screen shot for me? This is a new one on me - I can only guess it is a weird (IE) browser bug...

Try this link <a href="
http://www.florencewinemerchants.com/wi ... l"><b>Casa al Vento Grape Harvest</b></a>
I did see something strange just not - did anyone see anything at the end of the URL, after the .html - when they tried to visit this page?
