Le Potazzine Gorelli - Brunello Di Montalcino 1997
I got out of the office early on Tuesday evening, got in my Mercedes
E550 and continued home. When I opened the door much to my surprise Betty had a surprise for me waiting on the dinner table. What a dinner she rolled out for me...we started with some mashed potatoes, gravy and biscuits from KFC. The potatoes had a hint of pepper in them and the gravy was thick and yummy. She next broke out some corn on the cob from Boston Market..I just love the crispiness on each kernel on that corn. Then she brought out the main dish....for me she had a Big Mac, large fry and Mc nuggets with honey mustard on the side. She had a Whopper with Cheese and two regular Arby's roast beefs with their classic au jus, as she's dieting. Absolutely breathtaking meal! To wash this all down we broke out a bottle of Le Potazzine Gorelli - Brunello Di Montalcino 1997. It worked well with the special sauce in my Big Mac. Had a nice nutty but fruity texture and after taste. It's roundness was especially good as it worked just as well with the Mc nuggets and Betty's Whopper. A+ to A++ |

A+ to A++ Wow, a lot of work hitting all those places. Wouldn't it be simpler to cook? I thought the '97 Gorelli Le Potazzine was impressive, but not my style- BdM posing as CalCab. |
