remaining night turned into my July wine club assembly, and i used to be virtually searching ahead to it when you consider that I hadn't gone to the past couple of conferences. I picked up my buddy Amber at the manner, and the climate became now not searching suitable...
We were given to Jessica's at 7. The theme Jessica selected became f6ba901c5019ebe39975adc2eb223bef wines. She picked natural wines, which turned into new to me, and wines that failed to contain brought sulfites (additionally new to me).

| She bought all the wine at Whole Foods |
The food was simple and delicious!
 |
| Tomatoes, basil, and goat cheese skewers |
 |
| Cucumber, dill, and cream cheese sandwiches |
 |
| And local, gourmet popcorn... I couldn't stay away from this stuff! |
I got a small plate of food and then sat down with my two glasses. We each had glasses, to examine two wines facet-through-facet. the first become a pair of dry white desk wines, one natural and one now not. We have been alleged to attempt them both and see if we could determine which was which. I guessed correctly The natural one in reality stood out as tasting very natural and earthy.

| Holy humidity, look at how frizzy my hair looks! |
next, we tasted a pair of dry reds, looking to guess which had sulfites and which did now not. I guessed efficiently in this one as nicely And ultimately, we attempted two rose wines. one in every of them smelled exactly like nail polish remover--ick! It didn't flavor that awful, but i would in no way purchase it.

| Me, Amber, Renee, Elayn, and Jessica (at that point, my hair was so frizzy I pulled it up) |
After that, Jessica just started out establishing greater bottles to taste. I had a couple of sips, but I on account that i used to be using, i ended after that. while it changed into time to go away, i was greatly surprised to peer how many bottles we went through...
It ended up being almost a bottle per individual! I possibly only had approximately 10 ounces general, and i don't suppose Amber had a lot either. a person changed into feeling glad last night time! i really like the reality that my pals are all very responsible--no person drives drunk. We normally carpool to Winers, and the drivers just have approximately an oz of every wine. And of path the hostess may have as a great deal as she likes without fear
And of course, we took our conventional organization photograph (we take one at each meeting
It was the sort of amusing night! I sense like i have had more wine within the beyond week than i've had the entire yr, however. not that i'm complaining. Girlfriends and wine simply pass so properly collectively, do not they?
Are you a wine drinker? If so, what kinds of wine do you prefer? i really like the ambitious, dry reds. it is humorous though, my taste in wine has modified a lot inside the last couple of years! I used to only drink sickeningly sweet wine, however now I cannot stand it.
