Telmo Rodriguez Gago 2005

I had a bit of night out on Friday night (more than a bit actually) and needed something comfortable and familiar to slip into on Saturday night. I lit a fire, got some good solid cheese and decanted this around 5pm. By 8 it was ready to go. I've been thinking  about what is the best way to taste wine. A sip and spit or a long, slow glass. It depends on the wine to some extent, but I think the longer you have with the wine, the better you'll know it and the more you'll get out of it. Of course if you're tasting 6000 wines a year, there is no time for mucking around.  Luckily I don't have that problem.
