Three gift wines from the office
On Thursday, we had our 'Secret Santa' gift swap at work. I received two Pjnot Noirs.
2015 Josh Cellars PN Central Coast Light maroon in color with a cherries/oak nose, dark cherry on the palate with a slightly spicy finish. Nice! 2016 Cavit Collection PN Provincia di Pavia Pale purplish appearance, cherry/raspberry aroma, fairly simple red cherry flavor, slightly "hot". OK, not as good as Josh. Also, I happened to be around when the boss opened a box from a client containing two Italian wines, one white, one red. I gladly accepted the red. Right place, right time! Ho ho ho! 2011 Vignavecchia Odoardo Beccari Chianti Classico Riserva medium maroon color, faint cranberry nose, somewhat tannic flavors of plum and cherry. Fairly typical Chianti, would work with food. Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good wine! Dan-O |
