Petite maison de Vino Me, South Haven, Michigan
Tasted Saturday, October 16, 2010 by AllRed with 631 views
We spent the weekend with M/M Vino Me in South Haven Michigan. The drive up was highlighted by colorful fall foliage, a scenic route along the lakefront and stops at a few wineries. Dinner Saturday night centered on cabs ten years or older. Mrs. Vino Me made some very tasty mashed potatoes & green beans as sides for VM's perfectly grilled lamb chops (accompanied by Mrs. VM's rosemary-porcini jus). Thanks to M/M VM for hosting a wonderful weekend.
A couple of warm up whites served with a few cheeses and summer sausage. The Brunier was particularly nice- something to keep an eye open for.
Some very nice wines to pair with the lamb chops. All very nice.
Served with apples and cheese, incuding a terrific blue-veined cheese that paired particularly well with the B-G.

My last bottle of this. Deep color. Dominant aroma of cashew butter, with subtle citrus undertones. Baked pear and Marcona almond tones on the palate.

Pale yellow color. Aromas of minerlas, flowers and crab apple. Flavors of orchard fruit and minerals with good underlying acidity.
