Vino Pino

This week's wine is Vino Pino, a pinot noir made especially for my wine shop, Vino Fino. It was bottled in 2003 somewhere in central Otago. It was very good with chocolate overtones. I think that it will be hard to find it in the US.

Two weeks ago, I went to the International Winemakers Roadshow held at the Grand Chancellor Hotel in the Central City. I was really good but I drank irresponsibly and haven't wanted a drink since. The best two vintners were Seresin Estate and Te Mata Estate. I guess that I won't be subscribing to the magazine Modern Drunkard anytime soon.

I'm trying a new editor for this entry, WriteToMyBlog. Usually I use Word and copy and paste into Blogger. This program hides the HTML tags from me, which I don't like. Call me old school or a writer of too many LaTeX documents. WriteToMyBlog adds an extra space after hyperlinks. I think that I will go back to my copy and paste method. I need to see what the final post will look like before I publish it.
