Wine. Not just any wine, but red wine. The best wine in the world. Although it does very much depend on where it's from. There has been many an argument to decide the best red wine out there.
The Australians would say, Australian red wine, the French would yup you guessed it, French red wine. So how does one truly distinguish where the best wine comes from?
what's the key ingredient in winegrapes of course! They alone determine the quality from the onset, however the other additives also play an important role, in creating the deep blood red liquid, or light watery texture if the wine is cheap cheap!
I enjoy a glass of red wine with my meal. A nice steak compliments a nice wine. I usually ask the waiter to pick a decent priced one out for me. On this occasion he picked a delightful little number for me to sample, persuading me to purchase the whole bottle for me and my delectable date. however during the course of the meal, the same waiter, knocked my chair, resulting in the precious liquid to spill!
My new skinny white jeans were ruined. Ranting and raving like a lunatic, I was adamant that the restaurant/waiter should pay for my dry cleaning or a new pair of jeans. Just as I expected, I got neither. The offered to give me my meal for free, so I proceeded to order all the expensive items for my dinner, complete with desserts and another 2 bottles of red wine.
the wine most definately helped me get over my embarrassing episode, and realized, I shouldn't have been wearing last seasons white jeans whilst drinking red wine anyway!
I can't remember if I ever did pay for that what would by then have been a very expensive meal, I can't remember how I made it home, or even what happened to my date!
The next day when I returned to the restaurant to apologize, I was told that my date had left pretty soon after I had thrown up into my plate, think its safe to say that I won't be hearing from him again anytime soon! Shame he seemed like a decent fellow, he had the potential to be the 'one'.
For me it is true that I still don't know what makes the best red wine and where I can find that wine. One thing is sure I might just stick to clear spirits and white wine now, better to be safe than sorry! Then again, I will watching how much of the stuff I drink, and mixing is definitely out of the window!
