... almost done!!!  What a blast, 12 days of tasting in a row, I have to say, it's exhausting. The good thing about it, there's some good juices out there (and some some nasty ones!!!). But don't take me wrong, tastings are not always fun. Some of them are organized in a more professional way so you have good conditions to taste thoroughly. Others are just a big hip freezing open bar where you just spend your day pounding wine sorbet in a glass with no joy in a fancy location, what a shame!!!

Whatever, 2009 is a great vintage in every French region : good weather for harvest, ripe clean grapes with low acidity. Not a lot of juice everywhere though, so it's time to get a wine fridge and be ready to buy a lot.

The Sunday Night Delicacies keeps going on. Due to my late activities, I couldn't give you information about it last week, shame on me!!! So this week, we're going to have our first Surf & Turf dish with STEAMED COCKLES & CHORIZO.

Can you keep me some???

If you remember last year, we aired the Super Bowl on a gigantic screen, so if you're a football oficionados, this year you'll have to put your DVR to work, 'cause we don't have the cable connection anymore!!!

I'll be back on Tuesday so we'll soon be experiencing some new wines on the list. We're also getting close to announce some good news.

Meanwhile, wish you all a great week-end.

Cheers

P.S : go Colts...!!!
