What's your favourite wine?

[Chap]

One you would love @Alex Jura

[Alex]

Oof, looks good!

[Alex]

A couple we’ve tried this week

[Alex]

And one for tonight, to go with a panang curry I’m making

@goosehd

This used to be one of my favorites, still great just haven’t had it in years. My ex-wife and I used to drink a lot of Rioja. For the record, the wine had nothing to do with the split…

Nice. How did it work with the curry? I often have difficulties getting a good wine matching with curry (and go for beer then).

[Alex]

Was pretty good with the coconut and spice

[Alex]

@ROman from memory your favourite grape, do you know the vineyard?

[ROman]

@Alex Yes my favorite grape, but I don't know the vineyard. How was it?

[Alex]

Was pretty good, very heavy and I had a glass after dinner. Would be better with some food

[Giles]

Loving this. Did not think I would....

[Alex]

@Giles why? Worried it would be too sweet for your taste?

[Giles]

Yep.....

[LG2TK]

1000 Stories bourbon barrel aged Zinfandel

[Giles]

And this is outstanding for the price......

[Alex]

Think that’s a common misconception with Riesling. Imagine that GV is sweeter?

also that Riesling is apparently best enjoyed in 2042, so leave one in the cellar please

Btw….you coming to LA at the end of the month? Northern California grows to world class products…..one of them is great wine from Napa. You and Giles like good wine?

[Alex]

@jimcord we both enjoy good wine, yeah. One of my fave CA winemakers is Ridge, not sure if you are familiar?

[Alex]

Got this to go with a venison ragu I'll be making tonight. Thought of you @ROman and your favourite grape

@Alex said in What's your favourite wine?:

And to get back on topic, i think Ridge is my favourite 'treat' wine that I have had from the USA. This was my third, and I have loved them all. More than I would normally spend on a bottle to drink at home, but worth it when you feel like splashing out
