I am completely addicted to (NZ) sauvignon blanc, have had a brief flirtation with Pinot Gris but keep coming back to the sauvignon! The Marlbourough ones are definitely the best examples, lovely 'green' flavours, grass, capsicum, aparagus...mmmmmmmmLinda Fhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00231806622540244687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1800413003522809580.post-53736990173038229132008-07-12T23:33:00.000-04:002008-07-12T23:33:00.000-04:00And another thing....<BR/><BR/>To look like a wine pro, always hold the wine glass by the stem. As soon as anyone in the trade observes a taster holding the wine glass like a cognac glass... well you get the idea.<BR/><BR/>You hold a glass by the stem to keep the temperature of the wine constant and to more enjoy the color of the wine. Yeah, you dont taste the color, but it is nice to look at. Also, you dont get your greasy fingerprints on the glass after you smeared butter from the lobster or corn on the cob on your finger tips.<BR/><BR/>You hold a cognac glass palm up with the small stem between any two fingers of your choosing. This gets the cognac up to your bodies temp. and adds to the perfume of the brandy. Yup, cognac is plain old brandy made in the Cognac region of France.<BR/><BR/>WWBobAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1800413003522809580.post-33046678998491138082008-07-12T04:49:00.000-04:002008-07-12T04:49:00.000-04:00Sounds like a fun time!
