I finally had a grand cru. So now I’ve had a birth year wine and a Grand Cru. And Cristal.
All were beautiful. But I think I’m having post-winum depression like…what’s next?
Still haven’t had a Bordeaux first growth. Or Chinese wine. Or a wine younger than 1965 (it was a Wendt Bros. Pinot Noir). Or Winston Churchill (the prestige cuvée of Pol Roger). Or Opus One. Or the REST of the Burg and Bordeaux crus so I’ve got my work cut out for me if I REALLY want to turn into a namedropping ladyyyy.
Which I don’t.
Except I do wanna try all that stuff.
I also really wanna taste a Valtellina Inferno cause the goth in me craves the dark hellfire of wine with a name like that.
I need to make a checklist of wines to try somedayyyyy. In the meantime I have to say that Grand Crus solidly rock.
If I ever check everything off the list I’ll be forced to start my own winery. I have a name in mind.
Take a peek at the book 101 Wines to try before you die by Margaret Brand! I’ve started to battle my way through it 👍🍷
Thanks for the suggestion!! I’ll have to get my hands on that.
I need to know this Winery’s NAME!
Proprietary secret for now😉
