Honkaku Shochu Mugi

Joe Goddard bought a bunch of wine for my birthday and we drank it on the bus. Absolutely did not need to have anything more after that initial salvo but bowing to his greater wisdom I accepted a few plastic cups of this shochu which was very nice from what I remember. Joe may have misjudged his own prescription however as there were some rumours of "bunk sickness", so far unconfirmed. As Paracelsus would say, "the poison is the dose". — 10 years ago

Domaine Chante Cigale

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2014

Clean bouquet and opening salvo of flavor => develops gradually into softer honey and then minerality softened by a vegetal afternote-- wood? Or nuts? Very faint at end. Light, but good medium length linger. Wouldpair well with fish & lighter foods — 10 years ago
