O LUAR DO SIL GODELLO JOVEN 2017 2018 no es un año sin más para Bodegas Collado, puesto que es en él cuando se cumplen 70 años desde su fundación. Remontándonos al año 1948, van tres generaciones dedicadas a la distribución del vino que avalan su profesionalidad y conocimiento del sector enogastronómico. Pues bien, dentro de su amplio portfolio, con motivo del 70º aniversario nos gustaría destacarles una de las grandes joyas de la corona: O LUAR DO SIL GODELLO JOVEN 2017 Avalado por la calidad y buen hacer de uno de los referentes enológicos nacionales (Pago de los Capellanes), nos hallamos ante un vino 100% godello de los viñedos en ladera granítica del pueblo de Seadur (Orense), y elaborado en la bodega de reciente creación O Luar do Sil. Nota de cata: Presenta en copa un color oro limpio, exento de oxidación. En nariz aparecen notas florales y en fondo aromas de fruta verde y tonos tropicales. La entrada en boca es amable, agradable al paladar, sedoso y redondo. Acidez y alcohol bien equilibrados, es un vino para beber ya y en los próximos tres años. El postgusto es largo y sobre todo muy elegante. Agradable y delicado, predomina la sensación frutal y mineral. 2018 is a very special year for Bodegas Collado, as it is their 70th anniversary. They were first established in 1948 and are now into the third generation. Dedicated to the distribution of wine, this family run business has gained a well-deserved reputation for professionalism and knowledge in the food and wine sector. From our vast portfolio, and with it being our 70th anniversary we would like to share with you one of our biggest jewels in our crown. O LUAR DO SIL GODELLO JOVEN 2017 With a nationwide reputation for quality and knowledge (Pago de los Capellanes), this wine is made from 100% Godello grapes from the vineyards on the granite hillsides of the town Seadur (Orense), and developed in the newly built wine cellar O Luar do Sil. Notes: A crisp clear gold in colour, free from oxidation. Floral notes on the nose, with hints of green fruit aromas and tropical tones. Smooth and agreeable on the palate, silky and round. Acidity and alcohol well balanced, it is a wine to drink now and for the next three years. It has a long and very elegant finish.

Summer Car Maintenance Checklist By working your way through a summer car maintenance checklist, your car will be prepared for the season’s driving conditions, and keep running as efficiently as possible.
“Some breakdowns aren’t preventable, but..” The roads and weather are very different in summer compared to winter, and journeys are often longer. These factors impact on vehicle performance, as well as wear and tear. During periods of hot weather, some breakdowns aren’t preventable, but if motorists inspect their vehicles regularly, especially before long journeys and in extreme weather conditions, some could be.
Check yourself: 1. All wiper blades for wear or splitting 2. Windscreen washer fluid level and washer jet adjustment 3. Oil and coolant levels following the instructions in the owner’s handbook 4. The electric cooling fan – run the engine until it’s up to temperature and listen for the fan switching on 5. All exterior and interior lights 6. Tyre condition (inc. the spare) for correct pressures and legal tread depth – the current minimum legal tread depth for cars is 1.6mm 7. Jack and wheel brace – make sure they’re in good working order.
Have your garage check:
“so it’s up to you to have it checked”
• Cooling system – a leaking cooling system or inoperative cooling fan could cause extensive damage to the
engine. • Air Conditioning system for efficency and operation. Air conditioning checks are not part of your cars annual service so it’s up to you to have it checked, with any car over two years old able to benefit from a re-gas.*in line with the manufacturer’s recommendations to keep it as good as new. • Auxiliary belt/fan belt.

If you have to leave your dog outside, you must provide a cool shady spot where he/ she can escape from the sun at all times of the day with a good supply of drinking water, in a weighted bowl that can’t be knocked over. Dogs are more prone to heat stroke because they don’t sweat like us, they mainly cool themselves through panting. Doggy pools are a great way to help cool them down. Fence off big pools to avoid drowning, unless there are shallow areas for them to climb out of easily. Never leave your dog in a car, glass conservatory or a caravan and groom him/her regularly to get rid of excess hair. Your dog will still need to be exercised every day, so walk him/her early in the morning or later in the evening when it’s cooler. Never allow your dog to exercise excessively in hot weather. Keep off hot pavement, black asphalt attracts the suns UV rays and traps heat, making the surface temperature skyrocket. If you pet steps on hot pavement, he could burn his paws. Fortify against fleas and ticks, make sure your dog or cat is on proper flea medication since these pesky pests thrive in warm temperatures.
