IT looks a little like an Austri­ an mountain, the new Urbis Museum building in Manches- i ter, so it was a very appropriate ' place for Nikolaus Moser to present his range of wines on the top floor in the award win­ ning restaurant Le Mont. It is not a place to go and eat if you suffer from vertigo, as it is very high up and all the walls are- made of glass. The first two wines came

from the Rohrendorf region of ' Austria, a more northerly, cool- • er region more suited for these varietals. As an aperitif, we drank RIES­


LING VON DEN TERRASSEN, at £8.19, a lovely, dry lemony wine with great purity. With the first course of


gravalax and mustard beetroot, we had GRUNER VELTLINER BRISITER RAIN, at £10.09. It is unlikely that your shop­


ping list would include an Austri­ an wine, never mind a Gruner Veltliner, but try the wine with an open mind and you will find it beautifully crafted and refined, with outstanding pure fruit and an inherent spicy, mineral char­ acter. With the main course of roast


rack of lamb with red wine rose­ mary sauce, we had BLAUER


ZWEIGELT RESERVE at £9.39. This varietal, unique to Aus­


tria, comes from the Rohrendorf region on the shores of the Neusiedlersee, where it is warmer, more humid and more suited to red wines and the fol­ lowing two sweet wines. It is gar­ net red in colour, with a perfume of sour cherries and on the palate

Wine talk Andrew Byrne: with


a beautiful combination of power and charm.


With dessert, we tasted a vari­


ety of raspberry delicacies, together with liquorice ice cream created specially to go with the wine, WEISSBURGUNDER BEERENAUSLESH at £10.09 per half bottle. This wine is perfectly balanced


between intense sweetness and startling acidity then opens on the palate like feathersbn a pea­ cock’s tail. There is honey, apri­ cot, spice, candied peel and a whole array of more complicated secondary aromas and flavours. To finish, we had cafe and


petit fours and Nikolaus Moser’s grandest wine, CHARDONNAY


TRUCKENBEERENAUSLESE at £12.99 per half bottle. I would have thought it would


be difficult to come up with any­ thing better than the previous wine,' but this was in another league. Both luscious and succu­ lent with sensational apricot- honey flavours, a fascinating mineral quality and a zesty fin­ ish.

Stonyhurst’s special events


ONE of the architectural jewels in the Ribble Valley’s


. crown, Stonyhurst College,, has announced details of its open days and special events in 2004, which offer a chance to sample a real taste of his­ tory.


■ The open days will run from July 19th to August 30th, with the historic college open from 1 to 5 p.m. each


day except Fridays. Stonyhurst College’s gar­


dens will be open from the beginning of July to end of


. August. A highlight off that period will be a flower festival, from August 6th to 8th. This ■ extravagant three-day fiesta


of flowers attracted 16,000 - visitors when it was last held at,Stonyhurst in 1992 and there are some exciting attrac­ tions planned for 2004’s “In the Summertime” festival. - The whole of . the magnifi­


cent college will be ‘.‘dressed” , for the occasion and it promis­ es to be a riot of colour, with displays featuring themes from J.R.R. Tolkien stories and Shakespeare’s “A Mid­ summer Night’s Dream”. The college has well-docu­


mented links to Tolkien and many visitors come to the Ribble Valley to walk the In the Footsteps of J.R.R. Tolkien Trail.


The flower festival is being


organised by the North West area of NAFAS (National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies) and it will feature a variety of stalls and demonstrations of flower arranging. On Friday, August 13th,


the college will bo the spectac­ ular backdrop for open air theatre. A production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” will be staged by the Chapter- house Theatre Company, which travels around the country bringing Shakespeare to life. The audience will also be able to picnic in the college grounds.

KEVIN SHAW’S excellent direction ensures that the pace of this musical is fast and funny.

especially funny in a scene in which Molly was collecting signatures to stop the demoli­ tion of their neighbourhood. Also involved in the action


in more comic parts is Howard Gay (such a great Elvis impersonator in “From a Jack to a King”), who is to be congratulated for his great musical direction. Scenes move seamlessly to


musical numbers and onto the next scene and the whole makes for terrific entertain­ ment. The Coliseum’s supportive
