Thursday night Betsy made pasta with bolognese as well as some sauteed
greens, wine was the 2006 Perazzi "La Mozza" Morellino di Scansano.*Some tannins, moderate acids, red plums and cherries. Not exciting, but competent Sangiovese.B/B- She needed a cup of white wine for recipe, only had half a cup of the Roulot leftover, so opened the 2007 Terres Dorees (Jean Paul Brun) Beaujolais Blanc. Sweet apple fruit, a hint of citrus, clean. Maybe a little softer than I remember , but nice Chardonnay that holds up well overnight. B Last night I marinaded some pork chops in soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, black bean garlic sauce,etc. then grilled with some squash. Put on table with leftover beans, greens, and a bottle of the 2005 Desvignes "Javernieres" Morgon. Sweet red fruit, light tannins, good acids, good length. Sappy/fleshy fruit, some smoke and earth. Very clean red fruit. This is really quite enjoyable, though if served blind as Cru Beaujolais I don't think Morgon would have been my first guess, it seems more "pretty." Drinking well. B+ Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent*wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't*drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no*promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.** * |
