			<description><![CDATA[I joined a wines of the month club that delivers 2 or 4 bottles to you every month.  The wines are imported and they pick different ones each time, although you can specify white or red.<br />
<br />
Anyway, if you would like more information see this link:<br />
<br />
http://4y03.com/best-wines/<br />
<br />
They also have a compensation plan if you promote their club.  For example if you refer 3 people then you get your monthly wine for free.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Hello,<br />
<br />
It is widely recognized that moderate and responsible consumption of alcohol is compatible with a healthy lifestyle.<br />
Mr Beale added that in the past decade, "volume sales of wine in Britain have declined by 6%, and the volume of wine consumed per person has dropped 10%".<br />
Seven standard 175 ml glasses of wine a week is the recommended limit Rosanna O'Connor, director of alcohol and drugs at Public Health England, told the BBC: "It's important people understand how much alcohol is in what they drink, some glasses of wine can contain as many as three units.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[I am a businessman running an international enterprise. I prepare and manage real estate investment projects, I am an owner of a general contractor company and an engineering group focusing on tech installations, mainly building automation systems.<br />
<br />
Realizing my off-business objectives, I am interested in establishing a partnership and setting up a luxury, boutique hotel including a high-class winery that would offer the wines of the highest quality. As an addition to that, I would also like to set a course of lectures about wine-making. My goal is to invite the best connoisseurs and wine makers from around the world.<br />
<br />
For this purpose, I own a property in a fantastic location in an old Polish city - Nowy Sącz, a city of millionairs. I would expect that the future partner enters the cooperation for the 50% /EURO 950.000/of the partnership.<br />
<br />
Any documents and information should be forwarded to the Director of International Sales tel/whatsapp +48 504 424 660 or by e-mail office@lhgi.eu]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Interesting article in bloomberg.com this morning about the wine business in Napa:  â€¢Vineyard Defaults Surge as Lost California Land Values Undermine Napa Wine".  <br />
<br />
Must confess to a touch of Schadenfreud at that.  The writer says that consumers are trading down, going for lower-priced juice from other areas, leaving highly-leveraged Napa growers in the lurch; nothing is said about the impact on the European trade, but it may well be that some of them are also mortgaged to the hilt.  <br />
<br />
I don't buy high-end Napa juice, so I don't really care.  But I'm seeing a leveling-off in the recent trend of price escalation for European wines, and I'm grateful for that.]]></description>

Must confess to a touch of Schadenfreud at that.  The writer says that consumers are trading down, going for lower-priced juice from other areas, leaving highly-leveraged Napa growers in the lurch; nothing is said about the impact on the European trade, but it may well be that some of them are also mortgaged to the hilt.  <br />
<br />
I don't buy high-end Napa juice, so I don't really care.  But I'm seeing a leveling-off in the recent trend of price escalation for European wines, and I'm grateful for that.]]></content:encoded>
