Wine Cellar~

Fu~~ Hving restaurant practical class in the morning. Well quite an easy serving today as we rushed to finish our serving class. This was bcoz the restaurants gonna to be use to serve parents who came for a high tea with lecturers. So a what we planned earlier last week, we going to wine tasting at Bangsar. So 11 of us went by Jay's car and Sam's car. we reach there about 3.50pm. Its a one hour wine tasting section.

Miss Linsay is the instructor who in charge to explain something about wine to us. We given two bottle of wines to taste. One White Wine and Red Wine.

RED Wine :
Name : Wild Rush Red
Vintage : 2004
Origin : South Africa
Grapes use : Blend of Carbenet Sauvigon and Tinta Barocca

WHITE Wine :
Name : Hermanos Lurton Blanco
Vintage : 2006
Origin : Spain
Grapes use : 70% Verdejo and 30% Viura

We had been tought of how to taste wine. How to smell the aroma. How to differenciate young wine and old wine. This is quite interesting. Red wine turn lighter when its getting old while White wine turn darker when its getting old. Wow... Haha... Anyways, feel free to visit the Wine Cellar if u wan to know more bout it.

I would have gotten high from wine tasting. I'm pretty much an alcohol virgin.
