Wine Servings

These are not very good quality images but you'll get the idea.

 

If looks could kill

It's Friday..........it's wine time! I aimed for the bottle of Meerlust Rubicon 1996, but when I saw the look on hubby's face I realized I would have to settle for the Robertson Cabernet 2013.
Here's to you and your weekend, may it be a spectacular one!

Friday

WINE - VARIOUS

So tonight we may have gone a little overboard. But when you're spending time with
good neighbours and good friends,
times are always good and it calls for good wine. Even if it is more than one bottle.
Anyway......whose counting......!

An empty bottle of stories

WINE - ROODEBERG 2012

So I have a day's leave, doing the "home executive" stint. Washing, cleaning, cooking. Not cut out for this, but hey at the end of the day I can enjoy a good chicken curry and a great bottle of wine.
My dear neighbour, Bev, popped in to say hi and we decided it would be a good time to pop a cork. The cork of none other than a 2012 Roodeberg. Show's you that anytime is a good time for a good bottle of red wine......and a packet of Pop Shots Sweet Chilli.

WINE - SIJNN SYRAH 2011 & SIJNN ROSE 2011

Yet another cozy winter's evening spent in the company of good friends, good wine, good conversation and a fabulous wine. A friend of our's brought along a bottle of red wine. One that I'd not heard of before, neither have I seen it on our local shelves. Definitely a wine I will make an effort to find. No doubt that this will make a perfect addition to our already growing wine collection.

The Red was not the only wine she brought along. She also brought along a Sijnn Rose 2011. I'm not a huge fan of Rose but for those of you that are this is definitely one for your collection.

Do yourself a favour and go visit the Sijnn website. Just to wet your appetite a bit, here is a little information on the vineyard that produces these two fabulous selections.

An exciting new vineyard between the tiny hamlet of Malgas and Cape Infanta at the mouth of the Breede River called Sijnn, by the original Khoisan inhabitants. Perched on a plateau of slate and rolled stones, about 15km from the southern oceans of Africa. At this stage there are no other vineyards within a 40km radius, the closest being those inland around Swellendam and alont the coat of Elim.
