Lagioiosa Pinot Grigio Blush Veneto 2009

' La Gioiosa et Amorosa' derives from a 14th Century Poet's description of the region near Treviso known as 'Marca Trevigiana'. It describes the area's joyful lifestyle and love of good wines.

Colour: Diluted rose.
Smell: French vanilla oak fruit.
Taste: Pleasant red grape flavour with a hint, and I mean a hint, of a wine barrel. Will be interested in what Merlin has to say.

What they say: Delicate peachy aroma with tropical fruit flavours.
Perfect with Cumberland sausages and French fries. Has been known to be served by itself, as a drink, with seafood or a feta salad.

Verdict: This wine is from the Claudosa region of Middle Earth. Claudia from The Middle Smiths feels the wines from her area are still to be appreciated. In her wisdom she has commissioned a website to display the fine food and exquite cookery she has to sell. The family have been making plates, cups and all manner of pottery for generations, this they have now allowed the general public to purchase. Why not take this unique opportunity to acquire a one off cookery set that will not look out of place in the most prestigious of houses. I will have the eshop address shortly and will keep you posted.

Feter of the Faydales turns 50 today, hasn't time flown. This keeper of the inn, as we now know, will be ever grateful to Fulia for her tireless devotion to honing her body to ultimate sculptures perfection, she now looks absolutely amazing. This keeps Feter young and happy. Fulia, that takes some doing, you have our eternal admiration.
