Tonight's wine



Wine: Qupe (really has an e acute but I don't know how to do that) - California, Santa Maria Valley
Year: 2005
Château: Bien Nacido - Roberto Linquist
Supplier: Berry Bros. & Rudd
Grape: Syrah

This one I really like. I'm not normally a fan of Californian wine - too much Ernst & Julio Gallo, bland crap, but this is excellent. It has a smooth, mellow flavour, no over acidity and a long pleasant after taste. Thoroughly recommended.

Score: 8/10
