Tuesday, October 28, 2008 - Some 50 years ago my mother would take me when she made her social and check in calls on the widows that lived in the neighborhood. I remember that all of their houses’ smelled of sachet, potpourri, orange peels, earl gray tea, and vanilla extract mixed in with a little mustiness. The smell and taste of this wine reminds me very much of those smells. As others have noted, a beautiful copper color. Surprisingly crisp with very little oxidation. The last time I had the wine I could not think of a food to pair with it. This time we had the wine with chicken in peanut sauce. Great match.
