Alsace Riesling under a nice sunny weather
Posted: Mon Jun 09, 2014 12:41 am
It is warm this weekend here, and it was about time. Went to met some friends at their house, for an afternoon and dinner next to the pool. I don't have a pool at home, but when it is warm like this weekend, say 85F, pool is welcome.
With dinner, iOpened a bottle If the 2007 Léon Beyer les Écaillers Riesling, a perfect alsatian Riesling. Color is yellow, nose is full of lemon confit, orange, mineral, flowers. Superb powerful nose. In mouth, so rich on thebi attack, and so mineral and dry on the finish. Oil, lemon flavors, lemongrass, light peaches, and some fat, unusual for Riesling, but bring you back quickly with that straight dryness and mineral finish. soo nice to me. TN : 91. Congratulations to
Beyer, one of me favorite alsatian house.
Back to home, can't go to bed, s o having a small glass of 2003 Grenada Plantation Rum, a spirit that is incredibly seducing. One day, I'll tell you the story about how I hâte rhum, but since I discovered that Plantation serie Rum, it is like when I met Marie-Claude, i couldn't believe it!
