Our musings on wine and beer. Newer posts →. Beer palate – Start by falling in love.

Riesling usually has a ...

Our musings on wine and beer. The Age(ing) of Riesling. Wine and Food Match Test #1: Seared Duck Breast with Cherries and Port Sauce with Marques De Riscal Rioja Reserva 2006 →. Do Riedel wine specific glasses actually make a real difference for wine enjoyment? This question has plagued me unanswered until recently. I have been a sceptic. Really, how much does a glass’ shape and size really matter? Do I really need a different glass for oaked Chardonnay than for an un-oaked Chardonnay? This concept was d...

Global sparkling wine maven. Sometimes I go to the fizz and sometimes the fizz comes to me. Thursday, 26 May 2011. No34:Rococo Blanc de Blancs, De Bortoli. 26th May 2011 was chardonnay day across the globe and although the thought did fleetingly cross my mind that I should taste something without bubbles, I did not waver from the effervescent path.
