Whatcha drinking (2018-2022)?

[teamfat]

Store bought eggnog with dark rum and a light dusting of freshly ground nutmeg, and an amazing fruitcake made by monks in Oregon, US of A.

Season's eatings.

Instead of coffee, I went with Earl Grey tea with honey this morning.

Yes I find it too hot. It's one I can't drink on their own or just with tonic water, it needs lemon to tone down the heat.

But isn't that where you get your bubbly personality?

One of my neighborhood Gal Pals introduced me to this wine, it's quite lovely.
Just like the label states, refreshing, crisp and hints of citrus.

Yesterday...

from the left:
2016 Court Garden Classic Cuvée Brut, England - a blend of chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier; perhaps my favourite quality english sparkler of the moment, certainly providing better value than most; available directly from the producer or some independent wine stores in the UK.
2018 Domaine des Gerbeaux Pouilly Fuissé Champs Roux, France - 100% chardonnay, often good value from southern burgundy.
NV Nyetimber Classic Cuvée, England - the wine that put english wine on the map, still very good, yet expensive in my opinion.
NV Nyetimber Rosé - one of the most overrated and overpriced sparklers I've had the misfortune to drink; even though its well-made, has pleasant redcurrant and cherry flavour, it is short and acidic and you won't get much change from £40, avoid.
2013 Nyetimber Blanc de Blancs, England - 100% chardonnay, well-made, good quality wine, brioche notes, not cheap.
2014 Cantina de Negrar Recioto della Valpolicella, Italy - a blend of corvina and molinara grapes but the most important aspect is that the grapes are left to dry for a few months to intensify the flavour. This is rich and sweet, a dessert wine, perfect with anything faintly to do with chocolate. Yum.

Pouilly Fuissé is one of the few French wines I actually like. I don't care for Chardonnay from any country.

Do you like Ice Wines from Canada? How do you feel about California wines? Texas doesn't have a large selection of wines, but we have a few that are good. It is all a matter of matching grapes to soil and climate, IMHO.

I thought it was a Chardonnay?

Pouilly Fuissé is the only Chardonnay that I like.
I had a patient how was one of the big liquor distributors in Honolulu and he would bring me a bottle every so often, nice man.
