Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

[RooFlyer]

Nice pic . Meanwhile up the east coast ( of Tas ) we were into the Rockford. Winter in Tas .... Bright sunshine, no wind, long lunch around the BBQ with fresh caught flatties. Beat that!

 

[Rocket09]

Thanks, it's what I do

Yum, fresh Tassie flatties are a treat! Sounds like better weather up the coast then down here in Hobart.

Yeah not too shabby the view, certainly not hard to wake up to every morning, even better when the mountain is covered in snow!

Haven't had a Bulls Blood for a long time. Last time I did, boy did it buck like a bronco!

I'm up the central plateau (Tas) hunting and the weather is atrocious - the Moppa Springs is going down a treat though

The weather has turned, so settling inside with friends, a leg of lamb with roast veges and a couple of my mate here. Souvenir of my visit to the winery the time before Buzz's trip.

How very kind of you JohnM. Most people use that phrase lactose free.

Nicks special 6 Faith and 6 Torbreck Woodcutter's for $210.

Very nice young Shiraz. Brilliant purple. Nice nose. Nice fruit.

Was my younger son's 31st :shock::shock: birthday and I had him and older son around tonight for a pork roast with JohnM's F* Awesome Crackling[SUP]TM Pat Pend[/SUP] plus a couple of wine scraps.

Aroha is Craggy Range's top Te Muna Road (Martinborough) Pinot Noir offering. Very subtle and many years left in the other bottle still slumbering.

Younger son doesn't drink :shock: - but that was not going to stop the rest of us .

How do you pronounce Riedel?

My older son tonight told me he was informed by the salesperson in DJs that it's ree-dl, not rye-del.

It's true:

How do you pronounce riedel glassware

Of course, QF WP doesn't care - as long as the label is intact .
