Before we even opened this lovely bottle of wine, Jess (now known as Jack) and I had consumed the following: pint of beer each (I, a German blonde; she, Keith's) with a Glenfiddich side, neat; Hendrick's gin-n-tonics; vodka tonics; and cognacs... Apparently we morphed into affluent European gadabouts who got funnier and more intelligent as the night went on. We finished the evening with this lovely Cab for a night-cap (or coffin-nail) as we discussed rape.. and ukeleles.
I wish I could opine about the body and complexity of this red. I wish I could describe the prominent flavours and obvious notes on the nose. I wish I could tell you I remember specifics about experiencing this wine other than "This is really fucking nice." "Yeah, it is."
But I can at least share the one thing that made us laugh the most by the time the wine was opened:
