FCCでワインティスティングディナーがありました。
今回は、スパニッシュワインと創作料理。
おひとり様39.9＄とカンボジアではちょいとお高めの設定。
で、4種のワインをがぶ飲みしていたのですが、ううむ。死亡。
飲まなきゃ損だというあさましい考えを今後捨てることにします。
結局、翌日のクライミングでは何もする気にならず一本も登ってません。
ううむ。
ちなみに、今回特別に取り寄せたのは下記の4本だそうで、今後もFCCのワインリストラインナップに入るそうです。是非お試しあれ。
White Fan D’ Oro
Medium straw colour with Jade green tinge. Fairly aromatic nose of peach,
pear, camomile, summer hay, oral – white blossoms, bee’s wax – honey,
vanilla cream – creme brulee – good French oak notes and with malolactic
and “batonage” indications. Medium bodied and pleasantly dry with juicy
acidity and a long spicy, lemon tea – savoury nish.
Rose
Pale strawberry red color. Charming, lively bouquet with pleasant notes of
strawberries and blueberries and a slight depth of fragrant owers in the
background. Very balanced in the mouth, full yet re ned, with rich fruit avours
that linger on the palate. An exquisite rosé that will delight your taste buds
at any time of the day.

Arzuarga Crianza
The 2005 Crianza is 90% Tempranillo, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Merlot
from some of the estate’s younger vines. It was aged in French and American
oak for 16 months. Deeply colored, the wine reveals a complex aromatic display
of cedar, saddle leather, violets, lavender, blueberry, and blackberry. This leads
to a medium-bodied, supple-textured wine with ripe, spicy blue and black fruits
and light tannin.
Arzuaga Reserva
The 2004 Reserva comes from older vines. It is 95% Tempranillo and
5% Cabernet Sauvignon aged for 24 months in French oak. Opaque purple-colored,
it exhibits a brooding bouquet of wood smoke, pencil lead, mineral, blueberry, and
blackberry. Medium to full-bodied, the wine has excellent depth and concentration.
There are layers of avour and some January 17, 2009$39f.r9o0mu
