This is monthly look at what I was writing about in previous years. 2001: ODonnellWeb was still running on Greymatter. Wow. I didn’t remember staying with Greymatter that long. MY new PC had a CD-RW drive, which led me to write about mix tapes. Was it really just 9 years ago that CD-RW was a […]

Thanksgiving Pick # 2 & Pairing

By From http://kybecca.blogspot.com/ • Nov 10th, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

You Are So Fine Vouvray 2007

21.99 / 18.69 solid case

A real standout. This unfiltered, organic and naturally-made 100% Chenin
Blanc from Vouvray is a richer version of the style due low yields and aging in 5 year old barrels.

Vouvray is the French region of the Loire Valley located in the Tourraine district just east of the city of Tours in the commune of Vouvray. The Appellation d’origine contrôlée (AOC) is dedicated almost exclusively to Chenin Blanc.

It is a bone dry, fuller-bodied wine with notes of tropical fruits, honeycomb and a little nuttiness. Fermented in a style with a little fizz left in to keep it lively.

Unusual and so fantastic, this may be the most memorable wine of the day.

Pair it with this Cheesy Potato Spoonbread recipe.
