Aromatic, cloudy, citrus, spices. Smoke finish. Drop dead gorgeous. Quiet here in Ottawa after Oktoberfest @brosbeerbistro always a pleasure.
Blasón del Turra tempranillo, Piccini Chianti, Cedro Chianti Rufina Organic. One word on each in order: easy-drinking, nice acidity, impressive personality. In fine restaurants. Not in LCBO. Available also to the public from Wine Lovers Agency, Woodbridge, Ontario.
Medium plum red, stunning lively perfume of black cherries, blackberries, and forest floor, with leather, and fresh spring meadow. Medium-bodied, with silky smooth texture and a long finish. A brilliant wine. This ’08 follows the blockbuster “07, which is also still available. Both can be purchased directly from the winery.
A balmy 9 degrees C and Gosling’s Gold Bermuda Rum helped make it nice and toasty!
