it's been a busy time, me and the better half are a bit tiggered, so we rewarded ourselves and broke out something special. Green Tea & Ginger Wine. We deserved it and loved it.

Last night - a 2010 Wine No.1 with late-addition elderberry syrup. Very quaffable.

[grumpy]

Nothing!!!!

I've caught a bug and been given anti-biotics, no alcohol for seven days!!!

[goldseal]

A Banrock Station sparkling shiraz. Probably past its best, but still very acceptable.

Followed by ...

A 2 yr old elderberry port. I like it. Must post the recipe ....

A Tesco's Australian Chardonnay wine box..
Gallons here fermenting, but not a drop really to drink!!! Yet!!!

Koomber came over yesterday afternoon, we managed to get through some Pacific Quartet (still superb) and a couple of half bottles of lychee, squeezed v drained comparison brew, the squeezed batch was much better last night than the drained. Along with a bottle of wine #1 with late addition gooseberry. This was either a little too sweet for me, or not quite enough acid but still very pleasant.

last night M and I had a rather lovely bottle of 2001 St Emillion Grand Cru (Chateau Laroque)

rather spiffing it was too (as was the price tag)

Yes the Specific pacific quartet was very good. VERY VERY good. The gooseberry was prerty darn good also. Very nice mouthfeel.

I always add another 0.5 - 1 tsp acid per gallon to mine.

I've had Chateau La Roque before, dude (though I don't recall the year)! Nice wine, that.

I had the last bottle of '08 "naked" Chard last night. Time to start in on the fully clothed stuff.

Shows that I might know what I'm on about then.. was that in the original instructions and I missed it, or is it secret information to be found out later?

Fog Ducker IPA. My own nefarious recipe. I've earned it too! Hard work today.

Probably the former, but as you never keep any notes we will never know
