Beau (grape)
Trebbiano is an Italian wine grape, one of the most widely planted grape varieties in the world. It gives good yields, but tends to yield undistinguished wine. It can be fresh and fruity, but does not keep long. Also known as ugni blanc, it has many other names reflecting a family of local subtypes, particularly in Italy and France.Robinson, Jancis ''Vines, Grapes & Wines'' Mitchell Beazley 1986 Its high acidity makes it important in Cognac and Armagnac productions. History Trebbiano may have originated in the Eastern Mediterranean, and was known in Italy in Roman times. A subtype was recognized in Bologna in the thirteenth century, and as Ugni blanc made its way to France, possibly during the Papal retreat to Avignon in the fourteenth century. An Italian study published in 2008 using DNA typing showed a close genetic relationship between Garganega on the one hand and Trebbiano and several other grape varieties on the other hand. It is therefore possible that Garganega is on ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Boyfriend
A boyfriend is a man who is a friend or acquaintance to the speaker, often specifying a regular male companion with whom a person is platonically, romantically or sexually involved. A boyfriend can also be called an admirer, beau, suitor and sweetheart. The analogous term for women is " girlfriend", and analogous terms that are gender-neutral include " partner" for sexual relationships, or " friend" for friendships. Scope Partners in committed non-marital relationships are also sometimes described as a '' significant other'' or ''partner'', especially if the individuals are cohabiting. A 2005 study of 115 people ages 21 to 35 who were either living with or had lived with a romantic partner notes that the lack of proper terms often leads to awkward situations, such as someone upset over not being introduced in social situations to avoid the question. Word history The word ''dating'' entered the American language during the Roaring Twenties. Prior to that, courtship wa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
