My First Italian Wine
Seems that we have a customer that is a Beer/Wine Distributor. Gotta love it. Went out and pronounced death on a machine and got a new one setup for them. Simple call. On the way out the door the owner told me to grab a bottle of wine from their sample rack. Awesome! Looked for something I had never had anything close to and found this interesting looking bottle of Italian Red Wine. Never had an Italian Wine before, and figure since it’s free I might as well try it out.
The bottle I got was a Vintage 1999 Dardano Barbaresco. I was informed that it is a very strong red wine and would go great with a good hunk of quality steak or another strong food. I’m quite looking forward to my next steak night so I can try this bottle out. Probably have to have my Dad come over to try it with me, since if it is strong as it sounds I don’t think the wife will enjoy it very much.
And for those of you reading, yes this is a new category. I figure I should start chronicling my adventures in beer and wine for everyone as well as my technological exploits. Till next time.
