Really enjoyed the Freeman’s Bay NZ Pinot Gris - nice honeydew melon on the nose with flavours of slightly crunchy pears and lime. Paired nicely with piece of cod and spring onion risotto. #aldiwineclub#newzealandwine
Great value Aldi This Sangiovese Loves... - bright sour cherry tanginess and acidity to cut straight through a rich tomato sauce, with a nice medium-full body. Perfect for a Tuesday #AldiWineClub
Thanks @jollyolly for introducing us to this! Clos de Gat Har’el Cab Sav 2013 from the Judean Hills @RudeWines - full bodied, rich Bordeaux blend with herbs and gentle spice #israeliwine#wine#threewinemen
Finishing the day at @CerettoWinery for Barolo overlooking stunning vineyards. Really see why winemakers matter - 10+ years to go for the tannins on the Bricco Rocche 2005, but Brunate 2013 already really enjoyable. Wonderfully delicate. #Barolo#Piemonte#italianwine#wine
Morning’s vertical Barbaresco tasting at Marchesi Di Grésy with @diwinetour - Gaiun 2012 already really drinkable with 5-10 years to go but highlight definitely the 2005 - still young, ripe fruit but tannins softened @marchesidigresy#barbaresco#piemonte#wine
"There hasn't been a better summer, this could be the biggest year for English Wine by about 60%, the yields being 30-40% higher than they normally would and lots of new vineyards fruiting for the first time" Frazer Thompson boss of English vineyard Chapel Down #WakeUpToMoney
Good doc on challenges facing #cava - great that producers talk quality but key surely is finding place in the market - squeezed in between increasingly good value Champagne and popular Prosecco. And obviously #Englishsparklingwine https://t.co/ld5PIjaQ3O
