Pop A Cork - Wine [440]
Friday evening is the perfect time for a little wine tasting. This time we are not doing any experiments. The wine is French, red, dry from Bordeaux. And that would actually be enough of a description. But to be precise I must add that this is Chateau Cazeau from 2011. On the bottle there is of course the obligatory 'Mis en boteuille au Chateau'. And there's something else we can learn from the label. This wine won a gold medal at the international wine competition in Lyon in 2013. it must be something good, you can recognize the class already by the sound of pouring into a glass. It's extraordinary, such a juicy gul, gul, gul, it's such a classic sound like the closing of the doors of a Vel Satis, an icon of French motoring. Once in the glass, it is extremely mild from the first sip, almost sweet. I am very curious how it will taste on the second/third day. Closed, of course, with a classic cork and a typical concave bottom. This is a pretty good wine.
