Good idea. I could do with the money (mainly for an Enolmatic).

I was encouraged by our local wine shop to try a New Zealand Pinot Noir, "Lowburn Ferry," that the owner thought was pretty good. The dude is right - it's tasty!

A bit of a cheese and wine night here...
A few friends over....

Started with the Rhubarb and Raspberry...
Nice... but needs a few months mellowing

Then had a friends Zinfandel Blush
Then a SB and a PG... chai maison .....to try..............
Both very nice ...

Also tried the ffffftttt Chianti , the Beaverdale Chateau Du Roi... and the Merlot
The Elderberry and Blackberry was also tried by the hardy... but deemed "too young"

A good night seems to have been had by all...
And those who "forgot" items will be returning to pick them up, at "brunch time" later today

Just opened a legendary bottle of eggy shiraz from Goldseal.

It's still a bit cold at the moment. Should go well with the pizza for tea!

Will update in a bit on it's progress..

Just bottled Bobs wine #1, and I must say, it's brilliant, it's the clearest I've ever got it (newbie) and it doesn't have that 'fuzzy' on the tongue feeling that the cloudyness gives

The waiting is killing me

In that case then, I post it later on, maybe just after 11pm

Eggy Shiraz...

Tested on my house mate, who has now tested a lot of my homemade wine

Didn't prep him at all on what might be wrong with it.

No taste of eggs, maybe a slightly odd smell when first poured, maybe metalic? But then it was ok shortly after. Well, the whole bottle went between us, and we didn't need to open the back up bottle!

And I haven't even been drinking out of dirty glasses or doing anything else sinister

Magnum+. That's a bog-standard Magnum red kit, made as a second run with Sangiovese skins form Grapefest 08.

Light and fruity - this will be a great summer barbeque red.

The problem is, no amount of it will blank out **!!!!&king Ant and &&&***king Dec, who are infecting my telly at the moment. What a waste of blood.

With my current weekend country tour, I'm stopping at my friends near Birmingham airport, Tonight we've had a Winexpert Temp/Cab Sav and just at the end of a Kenridge Syrah/viogner. Both very good now they're a bit older.

Spendid evening, steak and red wine, sat in front of an open fire Just ready to crack open some port later on.
