In a wine of the week first I am writing about
a wine while sipping it. Talk about multi-tasking!
Not surprising it is a white wine (I am clearly not much of a red wine drinker), that
is rather crisp with a grapefruit finish.
It cost me only $11.99 at the liquor store.. added bonus. It has a classy taste without the classy
pricetag. So what is this mystery wine? It goes by the name of Ecco Domani Pino
Grigio. Even the name sounds good, like
an exciting afternoon through the countryside on a Vespa in Italy.
It tastes like one too, very refreshing, light, and just a hint of
playful sweetness. At the risk of
hurting other wines feelings this may be my favorite wine of the week so
far. I had it this evening with salmon
burgers (that I made myself!) and it was a great compliment to the flavor of
the fish. I would also like to add that
I make a phenomenal salmon burger, but don’t ask me for the recipe I don’t use
them. To me cooking (and drinking) should be expressive and interpretive. It
should bring out your personality and passion. Cooking is meant to be done with feeling, recipe’s are just too rigid for me J.
Like my cooking, this wine is a
combination of different elements that sing when they are put together. It is a mix of tropical fruit and grapes and
citrus that engulfs your tongue in deliciousness. It’s bright and lively like a 5 year old girl
that won’t shut up yet surprisingly smooth.
I give this wine a gold star!
Keep your wallets full and your mouths happy
