Amazing wine tastes on this crew of Wine Drinkers!
Chards and Peisporters, two total different tastes. Dry and sweet.
Champagne can only be callled that from a treaty signed in China. America did not sign that treaty.
Asti Spumante was changed to Spumante by the Italian Govt. Asti is a region in italy. Spumante means sparkling wine. Greatest was Fontana Fredda, dont think it is available any more in the USA! M&R to appley tasteing.
For Dry Red, Bertani, Valpollicelli, one of my favorites. Again no longer available in the USA!
Fousch, no longer bottled in Kansas, have 3 bottles just for me, HollyField Winery, Ks. big Dry Red. Most call them sour, no, just the Tanin in the wind. Lay down for at least 15 years.
Merlot, Chenin Blanc, Petite Sarah were known as nice filler grapes to replace the Thompson seedless, In the grocery store grapes. Gallo Changed the total picture of grape growing, I know, I was there when the change took place and worked for them! One of the Finest Cabernets was Eleven Cellars, I worked for them! Gone now, to sad, Mario I am sure is rolling over in his grave.
I had some of the finest wines from around the world in my exploits in the wine industry! Chateauxs Lafite, St. Estiph, St emillion, then others as Grevey Chambertin and some of the Second French Growths.
What do I drink now: Franzia Box. Hell cant afford the cost of some these wines.
Oh the memories to when I gave wine tastings!
Damn, thank you for bringing tis back to me. I have found if you do not use it, you lose it!
