the ramble

More wine updates compliments of my year of new wines:

1. While in Texas, I tried a French Sauvignon Blanc called Henri Bourgeois. It was citrusy and tart, as you’d expect, but also (unexpectedly) thick.

2. Then there’s Lorinon Rioja, a Tamarillo from Rioja, Spain. It’s deep, rich and full of cherry flavor. Yum.

3. Infinite Monkey Theorum Syrah is probably the best Syrah I’ve had (I’m usually not a fan): flavorful, deep, cherry, almost sweet and then bitter.

4. There was also a fantastic white wine with a red pepper kick. I lost the name of it and am trying to track it down. Once I do, I’ll pass it on.
