Turkey Leftovers

[Innkeeper]

Well last night it was Pinot with the leftover turkey, heated on leftover mashed potatoes and gravy, accompanied by a salad with blue cheese dressing. The wine was 1998 Guy Chaumont, Cote Chalonnaise Bourgogne, Pinot Noir, Organic ($11.00). Imported by Chartrand Imports, Rockland, ME. Beautiful translucent ruby red. Red cherries on the nose. Meduim body, with a nice clout of cheery fruit up front, crisp with balanced tannin in der middle with hints of earth, and a lovely finish.

Matched nicely with the meal, but next time around might match the riesling with the mashed potatoes, and the pinot with the leftover wild rice stuffing.
