I thought the other wines were subdued by the meat. In our pre-lunch discussion, we alked about ideal pairings and Coke and rootbeer came up. The zin was the one mot like a soda so that's why I guess I chose it #1. My notes to follow shortly.<br /><br />JayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4159578680459427485.post-51657963259699960372009-11-15T18:49:24.953+08:002009-11-15T18:49:24.953+08:00No idea about the others, Chinkee, but I thought i...No idea about the others, Chinkee, but I thought it was too sweet.
