Shit wine is about the only thing that works with a curry but then you run into the problem of finding a chick that likes Indian food, it's a catch 22.
I met David Bruce when I visited his winery a little while ago, he's a nice guy, likes to chat with his customers.
I've had some other Ravenswood and it ranged from okay to good. It's not great, but it's a 'very drinkable wine' to steal one from James.So I've been thinking of buying a bottle or two of wine for my parents for Christmas. Recently re-watched Oz and Jamies in California and thought maybe it would be a good idea to find a Californian wine since they usually only drink Italian and Spanish reds.
I went for a 2007 Ravenswood Napa Valley Zinfandel. Good choice?
Really wanted to get a Sean Thackrey Orion but it's nosebleedingly expensive, especially over here.
Truely great wine usually costs a bit more anyway, doesn't it. The bottle I bought is rougly twice the price of any bottle my dad would buy.
No Cobra beer - it is made for it! You in America? Oh forget that then.Shit wine is about the only thing that works with a curry but then you run into the problem of finding a chick that likes Indian food, it's a catch 22.
The in-laws have a relatively generous wine budget which means I have gotten to taste some very nice Barolo and Barbaresco wines.
I must have a wine and food trip to Italy within the next few years!
