- Innkeeper - 11-12-2002 2000 Vinedos Agapito Rico, Carchelo, Jumilla (DDO)[$9 Is-Wine]. Composition is 50% Monastrell (Mourvedre), 30% Tempranillo, and 20% Merlot. Wonderful value. Has a hue that you'd expect with these three grapes; very seductive. Nice red fruit on nose and up front. A little spice, and very smooth and chewy tannin across the palate with a pleasant finish. Matched well with boiled fillet steaks. - hotwine - 11-12-2002 Ack! Surely you mean "broiled"? Hoping that was a WW-style typo..... - Thomas - 11-12-2002 WW would have typed boilt... - Innkeeper - 11-13-2002 Actually saw a sign for steamed hamburgers in a diner last week. However these tender pieces of commissary cow were broiled. - hotwine - 11-13-2002 Whew! - Thomas - 11-13-2002 steamed hamburgers--now I've heard it all. - Innkeeper - 11-13-2002 It was down in CT which is closer to thee than me. Did have a good breakfast of Kielbasa and eggs, not just a big round hunk with the eggs, but sort of cut julienned, with old fashioned home fries with onions. Mmmm good. |
