Everyone has something they like to indulge themselves on from time to time. For me, it's wine. I love the artistry of flavors and textures of the wine. My love of wine also pairs up with my interest in food and cooking quite nicely. (Yes, I know it's supposed to work that way.)
I didn't start drinking wine "seriously" until about 10 years ago. Since then, my tastes have changed, but overall, I enjoy a large majority of the wines out there.
While enjoying the season finale of LOST Sunday night, I opened a bottle of pinot noir from Cottonwood winery in Oregon. For those of you who aren't wine drinkers, I wouldn't suggest starting with a pinot noir. It's an acquired taste as they tend to be quite dry. This one was a good one. It started out light on my tongue, but as I was thinking to myself that it was lacking in body, it had a nice strong finish. The more it breathed (open to the air), the more I liked it. (Tasting notes for you wine enthusiasts: moderately peppery, slight hint of jam and berry. I would expect this wine to get better with age.) Looking forward to enjoying another class tonight.
