What's in your glass tonight?

[Rich]

An evening of music and assorted wines.

Tweaked Beaverdale Rioja goes very well with Inspiral Carpets

Matching wine to music now, sounds fun.

Tonight a 2009 Seyval/Muscat Blend 90/10 very nice, quite aromatic and with a little mineral quality...acid still a tad high even though it has had attention on that front....


but a very pleasant drop

Beaverdale Shiraz should be quite nice if it gets a chance to age.

Whilst listening to what though?




Tonight, I've got some Glenfiddich 'Rich Oak' on offer at Asda, tastes very good. It's been aged in new American oak barrels and new Spanish oak barrels.

Whilst listening to the silence, as the all the girls are in bed.

Cheap Verdicchio this evening, though it was so good we drank it in less than an hour. I think this may end up being a two bottle night.

2 year old rice 'n' raisin ala CJJ Berry (more or less). makes me want to light a fire, break out the didge and forget I have neighbours. But I remembered them, lucky for them as its 2.30 am.

anyway the wine is just dandy, tho not an everyday drop, match with the mood or whatever, and do wait a couple of years cos it really comes together. tho if you use a tasteless rice it won't, so choose wisely!

Well, I guess I'll have to try harder then.


Bottle number 2: '07 Pinot Noir. Haven't had one of these in several months. It's funny how a little age just completely changes a wine. It was crap last time I opened one - very closed up, no aroma, somewhat bitter. Tonight's it's quite nice. Maybe it's just bottle number 1 talking.

Under six quid a bottle if you order 2 or more, it is fantastic stuff, highly recommended. Apparently they haven't got much of the 2007 left, so grab it while you can. I would say that I have absolutely nowhere to store it, but I'm beginning to sound like a stuck record

A small bottle of black cherry port left over from bottling the other week (187ml)
Quite tasty it is!
