2006 Quails Gate Gewurztraminer

Delicious!

Drank this watching Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.... not too sweet, a good wine for having some semi-spicy food with, like samosas.  Can also be a 'stand alone' drink, but I would try serve it super cold for this, and drink it quickly, as I didn't like it as much warm.

Will buy again - this bottle was from the vineyard, and as it is close to the 'main drag' up to the Okanagan, will definitely stop in for some more!

2007 Gehringer Pinot Noir

Had this at the birthday party with the brie (below).

Not too heavy, as per a pinot noir, but bold enough to let you know you are drinking red. Fruitier than some other pinot's I've had... I'd even say it was bolder/heavier?

I will look for this in the stores/ buy at the vineyard again... I am addicted to Gehringer wine, so this is not a big surprise.

Return of the Brie

I brought a baked brie over to a friends birthday party last weekend and it may have been so yummy that it has possibly re-lit my cooking-interest fire.... it was super simple and really tasty....

So I'm going to try pick cooking back up and will diligently start posting again.  Not sure if anyone has been checking up on this blog, but in case they are...  LOL!

Must follow Yoda's advice: 'Do, or Do Not, there is no Try'....
