WINE, EARTHLY PLEASURE.
More than 4000 years ago Gilgamesh reigned in Uruk, of which numerous vicissitudes are told in the very ancient “Epic of Gilgamesh”, a document found in Persia ..
Among others, it is narrated that following the death of his trusted friend Enkidu, the King, having thus interfaced for the first time in a close manner with the end of earthly life, could not help thinking that that fate would then also befall him hopelessly.
However, he looked for the remedy and how, far and wide, unfortunately without finding any.
Despite this, however, he found inner peace thanks to an answer that was given to the umpteenth question on how he could have avoided the fateful moment.
To give it to him by Siduri, a divinity from winter, woman of wine, who with the wisdom and patience that distinguished her gave him an explanation that has never passed, always current:
“Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying? You will never find the eternal life you are looking for. Because when the gods created man, they gave him death and held life firmly in their hands. Gilgamesh, fill your belly, party day and night, may your days be filled with joy, dance and play day and night. He wears clean clothes, washes your garment, and takes baths. He looks at the child holding your hand, and let your wife enjoy your embrace. Only this is given to man to do.. “
That men enjoy earthly pleasures in life, without thinking about an uncertain tomorrow, perhaps drinking good wine, which is known, drives out all thoughts ..
“We don’t want to make the best wine in the world, but a wine that preserves this little piece of the world inside.“, This is the basic principle that makes the “Tenuta La Favola” in Noto live.
Here the Teds in this fun but at the same time elegant experience immersed in the green of the vineyards and olive groves will welcome you for a day of relaxation .. and wine!
