Reading Offline #1 - Alino's Thames Lido Dinner - Mixed Whites and Reds (The Thames Lido, Reading): We're properly into tapas in a Seville square territory on the nose here; way more smoky almonds than before. Some deep linseed oil and lifted pistachio shell notes. On the nose definitely in Fino territory. As ever with these the palate has us back in the Jura; saline and savoury but most definitely not sherried there are some brown toast notes. Just what you want from one of these wines.

Il s'agit indéniablement d'un beau vin, couleur or profond, qui s'ouvre sur des notes de jaune typiques complexifiées par des herbes (foin coupé, livèche). La bouche est puissante, moins qu'un vrai jaune certes, mais plus qu'attendu pour un "simple" arbois, avec une certaine rondeur gourmande bienvenue. Très bien, et plutôt mieux le lendemain.

Pair with Michelin Chinese cuisine at Chef Kang. Surprisingly, blended well with the food. First experience with the wine.
