Ja, blondiner är alltid trevligt...Det var tyvärr min sista flaska. Fast blondinen finns kvar.
Jag tror jag ska ta och skicka ett litet mail och se om hon har lust att gå och dricka ohemula mängder champagne.

34-åring fick köpa olagligt österrikiskt fulvin på Systemet
I lördags köpte William, 34, några dyra flaskor olagligt fuliga österrikiska viner för 1.238 kronor i en av Systembolagets butiker i Göteborg.
Genom att klä sig i damkappa och scarf togs han i kassan för en äldre transa och slapp förklara sig.
– Han har lurat systemet i trippel bemärkelse, säger presschefen Lennart Agén till Metro. För vi visste ju inte att de Österrikiska vinerna var utomordentligt olagliga. Vi är offer!
Systembolaget gör varje år tusentals anonyma besök i butikerna för att kontrollera om personalen frågar efter id-kort och inte aäljer olagliga österrikiska viner till allmänheten. Och den aktuella butiken har aldrig tidigare prickats för något fel
När 34-åringen försökte samma kupp i underklädesbutiken på Nordstan blev han dock nekad att handla.
– Han såg tydligen lite väl ruggugglig ut, säger Lennart Agén.

Kom förbi på en julivecka vettja! Säg det är jobb, packa en låda vin (kostar hårresande 1.300円 att förtulla in, dvs motsv 85 swänska spänn) och bege dig hit. Vi kommer garanterat ha en godtagbart bra tid. Typ. Eller bättreOm någon är sugen på spontandricka så hör av er!

Låter som en fantastisk japansk midsommar med extra allt. Själv så firade jag ihop med frugan igår, hemma i hemmets trygga vrå. Lugnt och stilla med lite roliga viner. Återkommer under dagen...Midsommaraftonen 2014 bjöd på goda viner i gott sällskap.
Både folket och maten var ypperligt balanserade mot det vi hade i glasen.
Midsummer Night's Celebration (Pagan Way)
1 star L'Effervescence (Tokyo)
INTRODUCTION
A gang of 6 OT's and us gathered with some wine and just let go for a fabulous evening.
FLIGHT 1 - THE WHITES
Lasted us the first ~3 courses (of 12).
What a treat!
FLIGHT 2 - RED WINES AND SOME 8 COURSES
- NV Bollinger Champagne 89 Points
France, Champagne
A pure bubbly that put smiles on everyone's faces.
- 2013 Domaine du Tariquet Vin de Pays des Côtes de Gascogne Les Premières Grives 80 Points
France, Southwest France, Gascony, Vin de Pays des Côtes de Gascogne
Nothing to write home about. Pink grapefruit aromas, very youthful, fruity (like eating sweet grapes). The wine is also somewhat sweet, not unlike Swedish white BiB's.
Quite delicious and was fine for the first plates.
The Oz Shiraz shook us all with it's colossal constitution and pleasurable balance. All wines performed well, so all the more reason to just be happy!
FLIGHT 3 - DESSERT
- 2008 L'Ecole No. 41 Merlot Columbia Valley 90 Points
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley
To my palate, a typical Cali Merlot with aromas of sundried fruits (raisins, figs, dates) and some deep spicey aromas towards cacao and Heliotrope. Close to full bodied. Quite delicious. In the zone!
- 2005 Peter Lehmann Cabernet Sauvignon Mentor 91 Points
Australia, South Australia, Barossa, Barossa Valley
Started out with buttery aromas that moved on towards a 'modern' fruity CS-nose. On the palate this is medium bodied and mature enough. All in balance, great intensity.
- 2010 Domaine des Bouzons Côtes du Rhône Villages Cuvée Beauchamp 91 Points
France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages
An exceptional CdRV. Towards the flamboyant style of the Southern Rhône with extravagant Grenache fruit. Rich and dense. Should improve over some 5 yrs.
- 2002 Penna Lane Shiraz "The Willsmore" 97 Points
Australia, South Australia, Mount Lofty Ranges, Clare Valley
My WOTN.
Extremely rich, dense, aromatic Shiraz nose in a perfect place. It's rare I get stuck with my nose in a red wine, but this nose is utterly amazing!
In the mouth, it has excellent balance even if there is a hefty full bodied Gospel singer embodied in this wine. Dramatic, clear expression of wet stones and all the anise-seeds, fennel, rusty iron and industrial rubber that you can ever dream of.
Has many more years of great life ahead of it. Really wish I had some...
- 2005 Tardieu-Laurent Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Spéciale 93 Points
France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
In tonight's company, its Olde Worlde pedigree is quite apparent on the nose, with its earthy, restrained dry forrest floor.
Displayed all the richness of a great non-sweet CdP. Quite balanced and a little "muffled" compared to last month's btl. La Garrigue can be found on the palate; that is rich, intense and long. This has subtle herbal qualities that are just amazing!
Early drinking window.
- 2004 Bodega Numanthia Termes Toro Numanthia 94 Points
Spain, Castilla y León, Toro
TN's here represent quite an amusing read.
Every 5th or so are not impressed and some seem convinced that this represents some kind of modern over-extracted and over-oaked plonk. Of course, tastes differ.
It has very little sediment because the grapes are tiny and come from a truly arid climate, which means natural concentration. Made in quite a different style from Rioja, and (arguably) with less oak.
Nose of warm, sunny notes of very mature grapes.
On the palate we all found a rich, GRANDE wine that I'd happily enjoy every day. Perfectly balanced: the acids keep this wine fresh, despite its magnificent concentration and warm, rich fruit on the palate.
Still almost untouched by age, and should (according to my palate) not be drunk on this side of 2020. Will mature very well! One btl to go for ~2023.
Couldn't be a better ending than Namae-san's desert and 2001 Guiraud...
CLOSING
- 2001 Château Guiraud 93 Points
France, Bordeaux, Sauternais, Sauternes
This is a great Guiraud now fully in its bloom. Will last at least for a decade, possibly two.
The Aussie Shiraz was a monumental wine this evening. And in the spirit of Northern Swedish Traditions we ended the evening with a 'nubbe'. Not having access to the real thing, we chose Grappa as a substitute. It also worked well.
Kul att resan verkar ha startat bra. Hoppas ni hittar lite kul vin på plats.Idag(arna) drack jag...
Vägen till Provence gick (nja vi har hunnit till Beaune) via Tyskland (främst A7 och A5) för att i höjd med Freiburg gira 90 grader mot Colmar för att via Mulhouse (A36) och Beaune köra rakt söderöver via "solskensmotorvägen" (A6-A7, "Autoroute du Soleil"). Målet med resan är det underbara lilla f.d. Fiskesamhället Cassis som ligger nästan kloss i kloss med Bandol... En vecka i lägenhet med egen tillhörande pool är väl det som hägrar förutom just Cassis och Bandol.
Tre viner dracks på vägen ner.
Första vinet:
Heckert 2012er Stadecker Lenchen Bacchus (QbA Rheinhessen).
Säkert inget märkvärdigt. Serverades väl kyld på värdshuset i Neuenstein till första övernattningens barbecue. Medelsyra, päron och vit persika. Halvtorrt och lätt kryddigt... Uppfriskande (beror nog delvis på kylan) och gott var det i alla fall.
Andra vinet:
Ospecificerad gewurz på glas i Colmar till en tarteflambe.
Ingen aning vad jag har i glaset förutom druvsorten som känns igen. Blommigt och påtagligt kryddigt. Förvånansvärt torrt. Saknar litchi'n som inte ens kan anas.
Tredje vinet (som smuttas på i Beaune när detta skrivs):
Andre Delorme Les vignes de l'Ange Bourgogne Chardonnay 2008.
Inmundigas på hotellet efter nattning av barnen.
Smörigt till tusen..., vilket åtföljs av majs, gröna äpplen, vanilj och en lätt blommighet.
Knastertorrt med frisk syra. Lite mer tropiskt i smaken men fortfarande med majs och äpple.
Vinet levererades till hotellrummet med ostkex (salta varianten av coeur de palmier)

Enda inköpen hitintills är:
Rene Mure Pinot Noir "V" (Grand Cru Vorbourg) 2012
René Mure Pinot Noir Clos St Landelin (också Vorbourg) 2011
Mure's Pinot'er har alltid levererat och hoppas förstås även på dessa...
Midsommaraftonen 2014 bjöd på goda viner i gott sällskap.
Både folket och maten var ypperligt balanserade mot det vi hade i glasen.
