Maybe around 10 to 12 degrees. Not anything oakey or with heavy tannins. Gembo's Beaujolais is ideal. Mind you, in the interests of domestic harmony I tend to be on whites or fizzy things these days. 1st world problems. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-314593 Fri, 20 Sep 2019 19:07:49 +0000 I were right about that saddle 314593@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Plenty reds are chillable man. Northern ones like Gamay from the Loire for sure. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-314592 Fri, 20 Sep 2019 18:30:21 +0000 gembo 314592@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@acsimpson I am assuming the white has been chilled (else i would puke) but i am punting a red like a cheeky wee Beaujolais nouveau that can be served chilled and is often a ringer chilled or otherwise in wine tasting completions. No this one tho, it is way harder than that.</p> <p>Did buy the cheeses to taste (gruyere, manchego and jarlsberg) and quince jam and a massive Covenanter loaf. Andante do another one for the same £12.81 that is sourdough and the same size. It weighs six tons and would feed a family of four for a week </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-314575 Fri, 20 Sep 2019 13:52:37 +0000 acsimpson 314575@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>I wonder if I could even tell if a wine was white or red if I had my eyes shut</em></p> <p>Are you assuming the white hasn't been chilled? or perhaps worse the red has been chilled. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-314517 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 16:01:52 +0000 gembo 314517@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@Bill, strangely, if this is the French journalist on the pod cast we were just talking about it a minute ago</p> <p>I wonder if I could even tell if a wine was white or red if I had my eyes shut </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-314515 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 14:47:36 +0000 bill 314515@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@gembo good luck! although perhaps <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-49652726">water tasting</a> could be more of your thing? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-314511 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 13:34:12 +0000 gembo 314511@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I would like to attend but alas I am erngaging in a wine tasting competition, I am aiming for last as have been second last two years in a row </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-314502 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 11:16:27 +0000 bill 314502@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>It's this Saturday in case you want to hide from all the sun that is forecast.</p> <p>@sheeptoucher assures me he will be wearing a "Ney bother" t-shirt. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-313992 Mon, 09 Sep 2019 22:34:50 +0000 gembo 313992@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Ney Lass? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18658#post-313988 Mon, 09 Sep 2019 21:42:09 +0000 bill 313988@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@gembo that's the Turkish ney.
