D&G REVEAL CHRISTMAS TREE



For the second time in a row D&G have spread their magic in Claridge’s lobby by designing this year’s Claridge’s Christmas tree.
Inspired by their childhood memories, the 8-meter-high tree’s design celebrates the “children of the world,” featuring a magical woodland theme.
The theatrical creation includes a sprinkling of snow and groups of animated deer, rabbits and squirrels gathered at the tree’s base.
The international focus comes in the form of more then 300 Italian glass baubles, hand painted with international flags to symbolize festive traditions from all over the world. Handmade over-sized ribbons representing different countries also adorn the branches.
And the icing on the cake is a royal throne with a crown and a hand-made coat owned by a Norman king, symbolizing the Normans’ conquest of Southern Italy in Sicily in 1061.

“Christmas is the happiest time of the year for children and we want to celebrate it with a tree that brings together all the different cultures from around the world,” explain the designers.
“We thought of an enchanted forest where the real meets the unreal, just as it does the night before Christmas.”
Dolce and Gabbana aren’t the only high-profile designers getting into the festive spirit: Crystal house Swarovski’s 550-pound star will be unveiled atop the Rockefeller Center’s tree on December 3!
This is the second year running that the Italian duo has created the hotel’s Christmas tree.

The Great Wine Regions of Tuscany

Italians have long had a history of consuming and producing their fair share of fine wines. From the luxurious bottles of Brunello di Montelcino to the inexpensive bottles of Chianti, the Italian  region of Tuscany  produces several predominantly red wines that are ever so pleasing to the palette. Tuscany is Italy’s third most planted region and yields primarily the Sangiovese grapes, with red wine accounting for over 80% of its wine production. Most of the production comes from the Chianti region that produces over 8 million cases of wine per year , while the Brunello di Montelcino region with its richer and more intense wines produces only about 333,000 cases annually. The quality standards of all Italian wines are controlled and classified by the government. A  DOCG classification  (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita) is the highest standard guaranteeing the origin and blend, while DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) is a less restrictive...
