Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

[Buzzard]

According to @penegal. it's alright though a bit young. It will do.

Now we are starting to get into the nitty gritty.

Again, @penegal is talking through his ….

Great food and wine , convivial atmosphere and a lot of being talked

 

[Major]

Are you at the OT again?

 

[Buzzard]

Words of wisdom from @penegal:
At least @QF WP got it at a good price.
Double decanting certainly helped.

 

[QF WP]

Cheeky sods - in that beaker is not the D’Arenburg.

Life’s too short to take @penegal seriously

 

[QF WP]

Are you at the OT again?

No. D.O.C. Pizza & Mozzarella Bar in Southbank. OT is closed. @qaz orgsnised it and I concur with his selection.

 

[Buzzard]

Are you at the OT again?

Not tonight. A pizza place organised by @qaz

 

[TheRealTMA]

To quote @penegal, it has a nice nose

In my opinion, it's as smooth as a well oiled baby's bottom.

Are we allowed to say that anymore?

Don't be to concerned, I seem to recall at the OT @penegal gave the Wendouree 2006 shiraz a verdict of 'it's nice' or 'it's ok'

 

[QF WP]

He must have been away with the fairies.

We’ve just finished our night and all going home to sleep off our our 5 bottles…

Soft by comparison to last week

 

[QF WP]

He now says that he didn’t want to overstate the facts - they were better than good.

Time to draw stumps

Nice wines dinner tonight with @Buzzard , @penegal , @qaz and our dear moderator @QF WP

 

[QF WP]

Wine of the night IMHO was definitely the Cullen DM 2011, followed by the Tulloch. The servers and manager at the restaurant were knowledgeable and surprised to see the Cullen sitting on the table.

Was great to get together with AFF’ers that I know but haven’t seen for a while @boomy @penegal and @Buzzard plus finally meet @qaz.

 

[AnzacPaul]

He’s talking through his …. It’s sublime.

A couple of us are drinking these tonight @Buzzard @penegal @boomy @qaz

Hows that Dead Arm drinking? I've got a 2017 and a 2019 and wondering if the 2017 is ready yet.

 

[QF WP]

That was my wine (given to me by client earlier in the day). Provenance was okay. Was the last wine we drank. Full bodied compared against the other wines. I commented that it needed more time lying down. I’d say the same about your bottle

Sorry to have missed out on seeing you. I was enjoying a lovely plastic cup of orange juice instead

... So, I guess its time to go to another wine dinner tonight... That @Buzzard is quite naughty

Nice wines dinner @ The Recreation Bistro & Bottleshop with @Buzzard, @penegal and few others.

Recreation Bistro is a new name to me. That's quite a varied collection of wines. Always good to see them lined up like that.
A few members here are having a few very active days with good wines. Way to go.
