Day 11, 2023 Costco Around the World Wines with a Licensed Wine Educator Hungarian Blaufränkisch.

I liked this one too, but was hoping it would have that peppery flavor I read about when I looked up this grape. Seems fitting for an Hungarian wine, but oh well. It did go well with my nachos and VERY well with a peppered salami. I enjoyed writing about this one too.

Nachos - thats an unusual pairing but thinking about it, it sounds great.

@@SavvyNomadTV I was feeling lazy, LOL 🤣

Agree with the cherry/plum nose. I also get spice. The flavor was good. We like this one. Cheers

[@SavvyNomadTV]

Yes this wine was a nice surprise!

[@carleenbensen8794]

Really good with chicken cacciatore

[@SavvyNomadTV]

I bet! Sounds great!

It was a good wine, we agree… (14 points) but it didn’t really go with anything we tried with it. Unfortunately, today was not the day for having many tasting options at hand. Doesn’t pair with chocolate, nor the little almond biscotti from Costco and just meh with the beef bulgogi dumplings. But a spicy salami, not bad at all.

Nice with any cheese that works w Beaujolais. Probably(?) also w roast game hen or chicken that has a fruity stuffing or dressing; also salads that include fruits like strawberries, blueberries, dried cherries, etc. Probably good with anything cranberry too. I think this one could be quite versatile.

Great suggestions!

There is a coast line in Boynton Beach, Fl.

Wow ok. So apparently you cant day drink and try all of them! I smelled dirt and grass right away, tasted the same 😂 let it breathe and still the same 🤦‍♀️ although at some point I taste a sweet fruit along with the dirt. Still no burn, love it. Gripping my tongue. Complexity is strange, I taste something different every time🤷‍♀️ but no aromas. The longer it sits and breathes, the better for me. Btw. Skipped a day 😬

Not matter if you skipped a day ~ there are no rules here.
