The text in English :
When Catullus, traveling north from his birthplace Verona, once took his rest in Forum Novum (today's Neumark0 and, following the aromas of the ripe grapes,
espied the shores of Locus Frigidior (Lake Kaltern), be said to him- self: Gaudete vosque, limpidae lacus undae!! (Rejoice, ye wanton waves of the lake!)
As be climbed up from the lake and set his eyes on this fine house and noticed a well proportioned antique blond maid smiling at him mischievously, against
all his normal leanings be again broke out into song: Ridete, quidquid est domi cachinnorum!! (Laugh, whatever there I:, of laughter in your home!)
Quite beside himself and wishing to calm his senses, be entered the nearby Mason for a tasting session. What he saw, drank and enjoyed made such a deep
impression on Catallus that, before be fell asleep in the arms of the maid, be murmured to himself: Velim mihi capere cum MAN(u) IN COR(e) ut teneam
illas delicias. (I would grasp my heart with my band to hold fast these delight...)
In the same night the maid whispered these words in the ear of her master who recognised a bright idea for his company's corporate identity and named his estate
and family accordingly. Other rumours are pure invention. At all events we must congratulate the Goem-Etzzenberg family with all our hearts for not only maintaining
such quality but continually improving on it. And so it is., when you imbibe these wonderful Masons, Sophie,. and Cassiani, that you are beleaguered by twin delights,
namely of the palate and the play of main and minor clauses. And so it is with me ? as it was last autumn when, before my first night in Munich, I carried my wife off
from the "Vast Domain" to the wine domain in order to steamroller her in literary style with these wines so that our hearts, minds, tongue., and palates overflowed,
and we continue to draw on the experience to this day waiting to be inundated by the next wave of these divine drops.
