Unsung Heroes

I often find a funky modern label can hide a multitude of sins. The design trying too hard to make up for what is essentially a lackluster wine, though thankfully Irrevernte doesn't fall into this category. 

My first ever bottle of wine from the Cassis Appellation. Which turned out to be a heavenly match for my first taste of Dorada Tartare

Turns out there's only one winery who produces Jampal in the entire world!...

Enjoying my Wine Wednesday amongst my vines and  grapes (though I have no idea what variety)...

From 100% Encruzado grapes & produced by Casa Da Passarela in the Dão region... 

Until today I was blissfully unaware that Sparkling Vinho Verde even existed!...

It has the softness you come to expect from Dao wines but a purity of fruit & elegance you would not...

I go to Portugal for the sun, I stay for the Vinho Verde...

I've never heard of let alone tasted the Romanian red grape Feteasca Neagra...

If you've not tried it before Franciacorta is some of the best traditional method sparkling wines outside France...

This is the first sparkling Gamay I've ever seen let alone tasted...

What better way to celebrate everything the English has to offer than with a English Sparkling wine taste off...

Madness in a bottle...Chardonnay/Sauvignon Blanc blend from Lebanon?!...

It's still a surprise to many that there is actually a Beaujolais Blanc appellation...

Not far from Geneva is the Chateau Chalon appellation, in Jura...
