Updated on 22/11/2010

L '"Taste of Fall" closes its second edition

Full acquittal. This is the judgment that yesterday afternoon in Norcia has been entered against a defendant "special" pecorino di Norcia. This popular product has been placed at the center of a "process", a real court proceedings, since accused the seven deadly sins. The "Process the cheese," which closed the second edition of the festival "Taste of Autumn", was held at the hall of the Great Council of the Town Hall, transformed into a courtroom in the presence of a court of assizes composed by real lawyers but also by food critics, nutritionists, journalists and famous names from the entertainment world. To assume the role of the judge was a lawyer Giovanni Picuti while sitting on the prosecution table was the conductor and actor Andy Luotto and the defense of the journalist Carlo Cambi. In the presence of numerous witnesses, both prosecution (as Anna Moroni) and defense (as the chef Marco Gubbiotti), the excellent product has been accused of the seven deadly sins. A brilliant and exciting debate, not without audacity, has seen the emergence of skill and competence of the reporter Cambi but also sympathy and verve Luotto, that at the end of the process, before being sentenced by the court to pay all expenses, was forced to abandon the charges during the indictment and to account to the defense. And if the fun of the day was provided by this date, there have been other proposals, all much appreciated. Tasting sessions of the "School of Taste" at the center of typical product sales, have recorded many investments, especially those who have seen the cook stove to the protagonists of "Ready Steady Cook" Moroni, the cook Umbrian Gubbiotti, the gastronome Augustus Tocci and Andy Luotto the same. The highest level, even the performance of the pianist Maurizio Mastrini, which, due to bad weather, was held shortly following the sheep, at the hall of the Palace of Forty Hall. The concert ranged from the most famous compositions in his repertoire with that of a "world upside down", ending with absolute preview: running a special and delicate rendition of "You come down from the stars." To receive consents were also guided tours to museums and demonstrations on the art of wool, in the hall of '"Norcino Antenna", in Via Solferino, in the context of an exhibition specially for the three days of event from Cedrav, in collaboration with the Museum of hemp Sant'Anatolia Narco and the Center for Environmental Education Norcia.
