| Salneval |
I am usually am pretty picky about whites and rather have a red. This is my first
Albariño (Woohoo! Another one for the
list! Read
Quest) and it might just be my new white champion! It smells of apricot and pear with a floral touch. Crisp and full bodied, it reminds me of marshmallow, fruit candy that is not too sugary.
Has hints of pineapple and a touch of vanilla.It is smooth and has a drying end with a lingering taste. Great wine with a little buttery which surprises me!
OOOO

I made
Szechuan steamed chicken with salted mustard stem, ginger, tomatoes. Steamed for an hour until all the juices filled up the bowl and had it over rice. Hmmmm. I got overly excited and finished my plate before taking any photos of it. Oh well, here are some of the choppings. Although I cannot say I enjoyed the pairing very much. I had a sip of the wine with the chicken and never touched it again. It was not bad but it was not good either. I ended up saving the rest for later. Nonetheless, this was a still Double Yum!
