It wasn't that long ago that I thought blogs were for the birds (except for Nici's - and I really mean that, NH). But I think I'm really going to enjoy this . . . I say this because now I have a forum to tell you guys about the incredible lamb we had for dinner last night with green beans from the garden and the MOST AMAZING bottle of wine I think I've ever had. A vieilles vignes chateauneuf-du-pape that we purchased at Vinopolis in Portland in May. Robert Parker, who Ted and I tend to agree with in general, gave it a 93 points. Crappity crap. We were oooo-ing and aaahhh-ing our way through the entire meal. Good stuff. I mean look at it for Christ's sake, there's a freakin' saint right there on the bottle.
God love Vinopolis. It's like Worden's, the GF, CVS, and the old Broadway Wine combined but X2! Wish we had the equivalent in Missoula.
So, with that in mind, I gave access to all the ladies and will invite the dudes, too as soon as I get email address for all of them. If you have the time and the inclination, please post about the amazing food and wine in which you imbibe. The whole goal of the supper club/newly named bistro society was to give us all the opportunity to taste different and better food and wine more frequently than we normally are able.
Spanish menu post to come!
