Tasting Wine and Cheese: An Insider's Guide to Mastering the Principles of Pairing | Adam Centamore

While Mrs B has gone out to get her remaining steps in for the day (1400 - 700 out, 700 back, not a step more! 👣😄), I'm staying in with a book, wild garlic Cornish Yarg cheese & a splash of wine 📖🧀🍷
We spent some time today at the Pili Palas, a small nature park with a heated room, where the free-flying tropical butterflies are magical. I had a hand-sized brilliant blue butterfly settle for a few seconds on my nose, which was amazing! 💖🦋💖

Leftcoastzen That cheese ! Sounds like heaven! 2d

Bookwomble @Leftcoastzen Yarg is usually wrapped in nettle leaves, but this variant is wrapped with wild garlic leaves, which I think looks nicer, and the garlic flavour is very mild 😊 2d

dabbe The perfect lunch. 🧡💜💛 2d

LeahBergen This all sounds brilliant! 2d

Judgment of Paris | George M. Taber

pick

Fascinating, a bit slow in places, but if you are a wine lover or interested in the history of wine, this book may be right for you. Following the wine tasting that changed the world of wine, this looks at the history of California wine and what happened when they beat the best French wines in France in 1976. I savored this one! #Doublespin #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 5mo

I'll Drink to That: Beaujolais and the French Peasant Who Made It the World's Most Popular Wine | Rudolph Chelminski

#day1 of my October Art challenge.

The word is Gouleyant (like a light, sweet and flavourful wine).

As I am very underprepared for this, I have taken heavy inspiration from the internet for this one. Mea culpa.
