Wine story. The biginning...

We drink wines. In winter we do red. In spring we start doing white. During the summer mainly frizzante. In autumn we get back to red and the story repeats…

The reason why we start this blog is because we want to make some notes about wines we tasted…

What we wanted to archieve are the tastes, the moments – to get back to them and never be disappointed again. When we are buying the wine we purchase one or two bottles. When we manage to buy the one that we like we state: mhmmmm delicious, the next time we will buy the same one (not to disappoint and to drink the one that we like:))… but we never do because in wine shop there is something new, salesman offers something else and we test and taste the new one…

This is the moment we say: stop! stop! Let the story begins…

Friday, snowy, late  evening in Warsaw – one part of us is going to do hair, the second one to get green bottles. It is clear enough I guess who was doing what – the stereotypic thinking is welcome in here! The picks were as followed: Honky Dory (Pinot Noir 2009 from New Zealand cupped, not corked if it matters) and Roche Dei Manzoni (Dolcetto d’alba vigna La Matinre 2005). The first ready to drink, the second to be decanted for at least an hour… Guess which one won the race to be tasted as the first one?

It’s obvious – Hunky Dory... The etiquette is so catchy – so beautiful, so simple designed but charming at the same time…We could not resist drinking it later, we had to drink it at first. We had to taste what was inside in this bottle… And there was a lot… Hunky D was deep in taste, very aromatic, with some taste of red fruits – mainly cherry. With the first wisp it was dancing on your tongue (it felt like a lot of bubbles were going over your tongue but only one barbered sensitive tongue was able to have felt the buzz).

This is the wine that we will get back to for sure! The length of the taste fits more to one of us as the second taste is heavier and longer preferred. But it’s worth the price although it is not the lowest – about PLN 80 available in winkolekca.pl.

Summarizing – I loved the wine and will influence Piotr to purchase even a whole box of Hunky D. And although my taste is different I will drink it once again with all the pleasure on my side...

PS.Yes - we are doing this togetgher - the girly side of our relationship is blue in this blog, and the male side - is black...
