It was cold enough to light the fire on Saturday night which warmed the house up and created a cosy atmosphere for The Old Girl and I.
We shared a bottle of Deutz Blanc de Blanc while playing pool (she beat me both games - bugger!) and each had a decent glass of pinot noir with dinner. She was flying to Canada the next day so didn't want more and to run the risk of being dehydrated on the flight.
I finished the pinot noir last night but don't feel like opening a bottle of anything tonight. What would be ideal though as I'm preparing dinner is to have a small glass or two of sherry. A good sherry is perfect as an aperitif - see:
but there's no chance of buying any half bottles up north. I'll have to wait until I next go to Auckland and go to a Glengarry shop or another specialist wine shop.
