Negatives! We’ve had very good luck so far, but we have managed to find two wines we actually didn’t like:
Roccaducale Rosso di Montefalco 1999: Big, sort of, but mostly dusty and with a weird aftertaste. Not very good. Copertino something or other, thin and acidy and just not very good at all.
Tonight however, we’re drinking something completely marvellous and completely random: Moscato del Solo, from Bonny Doon’s Italian-style label, Ca del Solo. Hey, it’s Saturday night, instead of going out let’s open a sparkling dessert wine. This would be great for a Sunday breakfast– it’s relatively low in alcohol and bubbles, and heavy on fruit and sugar. My father would probably think it’s too sweet, but I love it.
