occasion to entertain the father of the host, we take as a starting point the slogan: JUST Cabernets.
Already some time ago, we tried a merlot's with two of the participants of the next tasting, and it went pretty well.
The honoree, Chile the declared lover's cabernet was in the first stage, a spectator, and then begin to loosen up, and talk about wine with great ease.
Our host, received us at the table with: shrimp, mussels, brie cheese, Reggianito, white with green onion, salami, dry sausage made in canes, focaccia and rolls with sesame surprise (stuffed with sun dried tomatoes made by our Rosa friend!) and various other delicacies.
