Deux Vert Vineyard Pinot Noir 2015

Funny story! I actually got this wine because I was making a larger purchase of wines, and thought I should throw something different in the mix. Pinot Noir isn’t usually my go to wine, as it’s not as robust when it comes to reds. And, I like my reds bold, strong, and boy do I love it as they can unwind through the night, but onto this review!

#Wine Silky on the palette, vanilla, slight tannins, raspberry jam, and nice earthy aftertaste. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed this! And I would buy a few bottles for my girlfriends, and I. It’s such a light wine that I would have this without food. If this wine were a flower it would be.... daisies 🤍 It’s simplicity reminds me of daises 🤍 Something, I don’t often! Happy about this surprise!
#Pairing Red Velvet Soufflé with whipped sour cream. It was a great pairing! I did some research and red velvet was a match for the Pinot Noir I had! No regrets here! Would definitely Iove to pair this with pork chops and a creamy mushroom sauce!

Tragolargo Alicante Monastrell 2013

#Wine First off this wine has some strong aromas going on! I honestly felt like I was going to have to let it breathe for a while, but to my surprise once I took a sip! There was no need for it. Medium-light body, tannins, chewy, some leather, but enough fruits to come forth, and give it some variety with a dry after taste. It was a cheap wine and just a fun buy overall. Not in my top favorites, but I wouldn’t mind having it again with friends at an outdoor bbq ✨

#Pairing I had this with a steak salad. Not too shabby! ✨

Eminence Brut 1er Cru Champagne Blend

#Champagne Crisp, acidic to touch, slightly dry, zesty, and refreshing like a cool breeze. Bubbly on the palette just like I like it.
#Pairing Cooking a surprise dinner for my mom. I decided to make her favorite. Salmon with asparagus on a bed of cauliflower risotto to keep it healthy. Initially started having this with raspberries. I would highly recommend a pan seared crispy skin side salmon with this. Or just same great aged cheeses (appetizer) 🥂

Classic Riesling 2011

#Wine Sweet, crisp, apples, delicate, good body to it, a beautiful aroma of flowers. Without being overpowering like baby breath flowers. That type of beauty and simplicity to this Riesling.
#Pairing Well how do you bring a summer, spring, day drinking kind of wine into the fall and winter months? By firing 🔥 it up with some spicy curry along with cauliflower rice for a healthier option. PS it is very sweet so I would only pair it with spicy food or share it with your girlfriends who have a palette for sweets ✨
