This is going to be my first post of 2014.
Sorry for not being very regular these days but then i've started a full time job in Medical Oncology.
My first choice was Endocrinology but i'm learning a lot at Oncology dept.
Have made some great friends.
What an amazing start it has been.
Hope the year continues in the same note it started.
I was sent this bottle of wine from Four Seasons.
I rarely drink except on events.
So i didn't have any wine glass with me lol
Luckily had a Champange glass from gawd knows where .
This was my Christmas Eve meal.
I didn't go anywhere (yes,i'm a very boring person)
Stayed in and prepared mashed poatoes,Chicken steak and boiled veggies.
Home baked fruit cake (a gift)
I thought of doing some mixology of orange juice with the red wine but then got too lazy to go buy the juice :p
Type : Still Red Wine
Grapes :Shiraz
Origin : Baramati, Maharashtra, India
Style: Dry
Tasting notes:
Colour : Dark ruby red with black cherry hues.
Aroma : Crushed raspberries abound, combining with spicy and smoky notes and a subtle hints of violet.
Palate : This rich, full-bodied wine has a nice amount of complexity offering fruit and spice on the palate and a pleasant finish with smooth velvety tannins.
Serving suggestion: Enjoyed best at 16 - 18° C with barbequed red meats and game. Its spicy character makes it an ideal accompaniment to Indian cuisine.
How Did You Spend Your Christmas 2013?
