The flexi mood changer
The pleasure of washing down a bad day with a glass of wine. Pinot Noir for a long evening, or a muscat for aperitif happiness.
Last weekend my flatmate and I grabbed some great deals at our local wine shop which unfortunately is shutting down. Look out for oddbins, I think most areas have one.
This evening, which happens to be a not so great one for both of us - we uncorked a bottle of Soave Portone. Smoothly glides down your throat, and into the blood stream to calm fraught nerves.
The label reads - Portone is the product of a meticulous selection of Garganega, Chardonnay and Trebbiano grapes cultivated on the rolling hills of Verona.
A crisp dry white wine with a fruity apricot flavour, this unoaked wine makes an ideal aperitif.
Highly recommended by me. I always envy people who know exactly which one to buy and can distinguish between all the million kinds with a whiff of the fragrance.

The biggest liquor store in Ottawa in near the Bytowne Cinema where I go at least once each weekend. So I will stop in there next time and see if I can find your flexi-mood-changer. Although I don't drink alone, so it may take some time before I taste it, but there is, I suppose, no hurry.
Pearl: Did you see the movie Sideways? All about wine and such.
Don't forget Rodin!
