Kevin from Fenns Quay was in with us recently (see the last post) to chat about wine. As he was here, we did a little bit of blind wine tasting. One white chosen by Kevin and one red chosen by me.
Heres whats happened.
The white chosen by Kevin was the Greco Di Tufo
Straw yellow colour. Bright intense fragrance and rather persistent.. Fruity with fresh pulp scent. Floral. Medium bodied, well balanced. Rather intense and persistent.
Its a good time to try this wine as its currently on special offer this month with 25% off !
Ok, moving on to the red wine tasting
The wine I choose was the Chateau St Eulalie La Cantilene Minervois.
A beautiful intense and deep color. A delicately woody wine, with ripe fruits and toasted nose. A full body with fine and powerful tannins. Long, lingering finish. A full, rich and fleshy wine.
Kevin and I spoke about food and wine matching and Kevin was incredibly generous in offering a prize (a meal for two with wine in Fenns Quay !!!) for the best viewers comment to his question. Check out Kevins question in the next video clip
Thanks again to Kevin from Fenns Quay Restaurant for calling in and he will pick the best comment posted at the end of the month. Remember, a meal for two people with wine is up for grabs for the best comment.
