These special superb wine releases are
always fun to blog about. This is one of those wines that you will say 'I
love you' to. Yes you will without any doubt! Don’t feel
embarrassed to hold this bottle up to your cheeks and give it a good wine kiss,
because you really will love it that well. Let’s start off with the
bottle. The glass is not your typical wine bottle and is more like those
heavier ones used for champagnes. It's also very well tinted – a good sign that
behind the scenes someone wanted the right kind of bottle and also knew this
wine is going to be made to age. After you initially open the bottle,
feel free to be a wine geek and smell the wonderful floral aromas every few
minutes as it breaths. It’s what you do, because you love this wine. The
aroma is….beyond pleasant, so just keep breathing in and out for a while as the
bouquet continues to unfold. Once you’re ready to taste, make sure you have
that high end wine glass. After all, quality wine in a quality wine
bottle deserves a quality wine glass! The taste…."Magnifique!" With
this wine, there will be no doubt if you are taste blind, that this is
something special. You’ll notice some good berry and peppery flavors
along with its dry and nice finish. You'll be enticed by the deep purple
color as it stimulates your visual senses. So, feel free to gaze in the glass and
hold the wine to the light as you inspect the color and the edges where it
meets the glass and enjoy every swirl. You can tell that great care and respect has
been bestowed not only upon the vines, but the grapes and wine making
process. Everything has perfectly come together in this wine. It
should age well for the next several years. We look forward to a future posting
on our second bottle in whatever the latest Internet social media fad form will
be the norm for those future days. So, pour yourself a nice big glass and
have with a big meal. Everything on your plate will taste good with this
one! Have a third bottle? It’s ok if you put that one in your
will to have it buried with you because you really do love it that much.
By then, friends and family will understand your wine obsession as well as
toasting your long lived life with some of your other favorite wines. Double
Cheers!!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
