Hi yall! It's been a while since I last posted anything. Lost connectivity, vacations, kid problems, work problems, computer problems etc
During Alison and my 1st year anniversary to New York, I had a chance to meet Mr. Dale Williams. Hi Dale, remember me? Anyway, I will post what I can remember of the New York trip in later posts.
Dale, Alison and I met at the Bandol Wine Bar. Had a nice meeting and Dale suggested a couple of wines. One was a Rhone. Well, since that meeting, we have been drinking alot more red wines (If yall remember, I liked the Rieslings and sweeter wines. Thanks Dale!)
Tonight, the kids went swimming at the neighbors, and I decided to open one of the bottles of Joh. Jos. Prum 1999 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spatlese (Erzeugerabfullung Weingut Mosel-Saar-Ruwer QmP also appears on the label, in addition to Valckenberg) that I purchased at Garrett Wine (thanks Dale!)
We had Chicken and Rice with a Caesars mixed salad. I detected petrol(diesel) and citrus in the nose and noticed some acidity. As the wine warmed during the meal, the acidity dissipated.
An excellent wine... I wish I had more than the one other bottle I have setting up. When should this second bottle be enjoyed?
Oh, I was drinking this from the Spiegelau Authentis wine glasses Alison bought me for my 40th birthday(Aug 1)
Thanks, and Take Care
Walter
