This wine is from a tasting at Bacchus. I brought it home it because I liked it, and I had made notes that it would go GREAT with bacon (but then again, what doesn't go well with bacon???). We had it with pasta in a pancetta mushroom cream sauce, fresh heirloom Brandywine tomatoes, fresh corn on the cob and grilled lamb chops. Yes, it was a delicious Thursday night!
Yes, a little tipsy... but aren't we all? |
I was enjoying dinner so much that at one point, I remembered that I had to run it through the Vinturi. That was a first - was it the meal, the wine or the fact that I may have been on my third glass already??? hmmm. Welll, I popped up from the table, grabbed the Vinturi and aerated it. Yeah, a bit smoother, but really, why bother? I finished my glass and went back to my meal.
I'd still like to try a glass with a nice, juicy bacon cheeseburger - but as it stands, this wine was a good dinner wine. Kind of pricey for everyday dinner, BUT well worth having for a special meal.
And, just because it is always amazing
to come home to stunning flowers on the counter,

I am leaving you with a shot of the Sunflowers.
Absolutely gorgeous!
