Many of us enjoy a beer after work (and some of you
but for the most part we're not in a rush; we understand the tap dispenses beer at a set pace
and I almost like the anticipation that comes with watching the glass slowly fill with amber up to the top
You sneak away from your seat because they called a time-out and you think you can make it back before they take the ball out; otherwise you wait in an interminable line during halftime
wondering if the Miami fan behind you will ever shut his mouth
To beer people faster, an Indiana-based company called GrinOn Industries has invented the Bottoms Up Beer Draft Dispensing System
the system's innovation is to inject beer into a cup through the botttom
which greatly speeds the filling time—they're claiming it's nine times faster than a tap
and that one person can fill 44 pint cups in one minute—while leaving a decent head on the brew
The magnet probably sounds wasteful to you, but a company called In The Drink Advertising sees it as an opportunity
They're partnering up with GrinOn to print advertisements on the magnets
which fans are meant to take home and use as refrigerator magnets
ITDA's rationale is interesting: "This little ad space on the [magnet] is one of easiest ways to reach a target market that is 21+ years old
in a good mood and has disposable income." I think the "good mood" part depends on whether we're beating San Antonio or losing to Miami

the Marqués de Griñón was a leader in wine and olive oil
an innovator in Spanish wine and olive oil
"It was so quick," Xandra told Wine Spectator
"Yesterday we brought his ashes home to our estate in Valdepusa
and raised a glass of wine to his memory."
“The wine industry in Spain is mourning the sorrowful passing of Carlos Falco,” said Pablo Alvarez
“A man who fought all his life for the wine industry
who very much contributed to put Spanish wines on the world map.”
It was a sudden end to an extraordinary life
Falcó was born in 1937 in Sevilla at the Palacio de las Dueñas
where his parents were sheltering from Spain's Civil War
his noble genealogy dated to the 13th century; he was a childhood playmate of the future king of Spain
In 1974, with counsel from renowned French enologist Émile Peynaud, he planted Cabernet Sauvignon, then forbidden in the region, later adding Syrah and Petit Verdot. His first vintage was 1983, and the wines caused a sensation in Spain and beyond
The wines received enthusiastic reviews from Wine Spectator
and three times earned spots in the Top 100 Wines of the Year
2010 (for his 2006 Syrah-Petit Verdot blend) and 2014 (for his 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon)
Falcó also became a familiar figure at Wine Spectator’s Wine Experience
worked with Falcó as his importer at Winebow for seven years
"He was in many ways the Godfather of modern winemaking in Spain," Paredes said
optimistic and driven to produce world class wine
He greeted everyone with a warm smile and was quick to share a story and some wine
He was a man from a bygone era that will be sorely missed."

Falcó was also a leader in olive oil. The family estate had produced oil from its trees for centuries, but Falcó was dissatisfied with the quality. He was also displeased that Spain, which produces half of the world's olive oil, was lost in the shadow of Italy.
In 1989, he traveled to Tuscany and enlisted the services of Marco Mugelli, a groundbreaking researcher. They made their first oil from Valdepusa in 2002. It caused a sensation at Madrid Fusion, a gourmet food convention, and kickstarted a new wave of high-quality producers. "We changed the way olive oil is made in Spain," Xandra said.
"Thanks to his mind and his land, one of the first luxury Spanish [olive] oils was born," said Ferran Adria, the innovative chef behind El Bulli. "He knew how to turn an everyday commodity product into an elite, luxury oil; he conceptualized and elevated it."
Though he was at heart a farmer, he also lived a high-profile life, with famous friends and unceasing travel. He married four times. A tall, powerful man, he generally towered over the crowd, but his natural curiosity, wry sense of humor and unfailing courtesy won friends wherever he went.
"He came to El Bulli on many occasions; he loved to eat," remembered Adria. "He always was very gentle, polite, and able to convince and seduce with his words: an aristocratic gentleman."
"My father treated everyone with respect," Xandra recalled. "He was generous with his time and his knowledge. He was always optimistic and he was never tired. I remember we traveled from Spain to San Francisco for a Wine Spectator event and when we arrived it was evening in California but 6 o'clock in the morning for us. He insisted on going out for dinner! He loved his life and shared it with everyone."
Falcó is survived by five children and six grandchildren.

Tamara Falcó, who inherited the title of the Marquess of Griñón following her father Carlos Falcó's death in 2020, has reportedly split from her fiancée, investor Íñigo Onieva. The 40-year-old socialite reportedly broke off the engagement following the release of a video of Onieva kissing another woman at Burning Man Festival, which began circulating online last week.
The Spanish aristocrat issued a statement over the weekend addressing the breakup, telling fans that she 'did not hate’ her former boyfriend but instead ‘feels sorry about his priorities'. She wrote: ‘I do not feel hatred towards him or aberration, I am sorry, I am sorry that with all the wonderful things that exist in life […] these are the things you live for, that really makes me sad’.
King Juan Carlos I stood down in place of his son, King Felipe VI, in 2014, following a series of scandals
Onieva has since reacted to the split by sharing his own feelings of remorse
‘In the videos broadcast I appear in an unacceptable attitude
for which I am absolutely sorry and devastated for
I apologise for not being honest and I apologise to Tamara and her family publicly
I am completely in love with Tamara and she is the woman of my life
so it hurts me enormously to have hurt her'
The businessman originally told reporters that the footage was from the 2019 instalment of the festival
But it isn't just glamorous parties and red carpets for the marquess: during her twenties, Falcó dabbled with the idea of joining a nunnery after reaffirming her faith in the Catholic church. ‘I went to a couple of convents and spoke with the sisters there, but I didn’t feel it was my place,' Falcó told the New York Post in September. Despite her decision, the socialite still apparently prefers to ‘stay at home and pray the rosary’ rather than ‘go out and have seven drinks’.
The Marquess of Griñón title was created by Queen Isabella II in 1862 for María Cristina Fernández de Córdoba, daughter of the 6th Duke of Arión. Before his death, Falcó's father managed the family estate-bottled wine brand ‘Marqués de Griñón’, which reportedly earned him high recognition; the American magazine Wine Spectator listed it as ‘one of the greatest wines in the world’ in 2014.

Wedding bells will soon chime for glamorous Spanish socialite Tamara Falcó, the Marquesa of Griñón, it has been revealed, just months after a very public cheating scandal threatened to end her relationship.
Just a few months ago, such an outcome might have seemed almost impossible for Tamara. One of the most photographed women in Spain and star of her own Netflix series (she has been dubbed the country’s answer to Kim Kardashian), Tamara found herself at the centre of unwanted public attention when a video emerged showing Onieva kissing another woman at the famously hedonistic Burning Man Festival in the Nevada desert.

The recently reunited couple sat on the FROW
Cue public outrage and personal devastation. Down came the engagement post, which had been accompanied by a bible verse caption, and out went a statement to announce their engagement was on hold. ‘I do not feel hatred towards him or aberration, I am sorry, I am sorry that with all the wonderful things that exist in life[…] these are the things you live for, that really makes me sad.’

I apologise for not being honest and I apologise to Tamara and her family publicly. I am completely in love with Tamara and she is the woman of my life, so it hurts me enormously to have hurt her’.
Bridges were built, though, and soon rumours of a reconciliation began to swirl. The couple were spotted out and about in their native Spain before making the ultimate declaration that things were back on track: a joint magazine cover at the start of the new year. ‘Sources close to the couple explain that they are very excited, that making peace has been like a “Christmas miracle” and both are determined to make their relationship work with more determination than ever,’ Hola! revealed.

The couple split, speaking publicly about their separation, but have now found a way to repair their bond, move on… and perhaps wedding bells will soon chime. After confirming their reunion in the Spanish press last week, the couple have now taken the ultimate step to show they really are back together: a romantic getaway. In this case, it was an escape to the exclusive Javri Lodge, in Finland.
The couple pucker up in the Instagram gallery
To celebrate the visit, Tamara, the 41-year-old half-sister of pop star Enrique Iglesias who inherited her title from her father on his death in 2020, shared a slideshow of loved-up snaps; her first with Onieva since she removed the photo of their engagement in the initial days after the scandal.

The public demise of the relationship began when a video circulated online showing Onieva kissing another woman at Burning Man Festival, in the US. It became public knowledge in October 2022, just days after the marquesa revealed in a touching Instagram post that her dapper beau had popped the question and they were due to wed.
