Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
The Sweetest Rose
Of all the fruits in the rose family, the raspberry (Rubus idaeus) is without a doubt the sweetest and most enticing. Wild raspberries were already served as food for people by the Neolithic Age, but they have only been cultivated in gardens since the Middle Ages. The particularly flavorful raspberries that are common today first appeared in the Renaissance. But in Europe, they only grew a few kinds of raspberries, whereas in Asia, thought to be the origin of the raspberry, more than two hundred kinds were known.
