booze

Contrary to popular belief I'm not a drunkard, I just like a good drink :)

This is the mantelpiece of my bedroom at the moment.

Form left to right:

Casilerro del Diablo, Merlot: A reasonable and cheapish Chillean Merlot. It was pleasant but not the best I've had.

Rosemount Estate, Shiraz/Cabernet: A truly great any time wine. Recommended to anyone for any situation.

Taylor’s: One of the better commercial Ports.

Cono Sur, 20 barrel cabernet sauvignon: I haven't tired this Cono Sur delight yet, but I've heard very good things about it.

Chatau Musar: Mmmm. This is a sexy wine, imo. Older vintages were much better but I still think this is a truly great wine.

Rosemount Estate, Shiraz - like the shiraz/cabernet blend but with more oak. great with steaks and barbecues.

Wolf Blass, Cabernet Shiraz: I haven't tried the yellow label but I hear they are reliable quality.

Col Di Sasso: not everyone's taste but it's a good Chianti-like Italian red and nice and cheap.

Talisker: Single Malt of goodness in my opinion, of horridness in the opinion of others. It hits me in the right spots but some don't like it.



I'll be bringing a bottle of the Rosemount shiraz, two bottles of the Chateau Musar and the Talisker to Jacon.

Hopefully I'll get them through hassle-free.

Looks like I'm the official Designated Driver

I'll probably be DDing as well. But as I see it we need two DDs, one to drive and one to keep these drunkards at bay in the back seat =)
