It would seem I’m a Merlot – according to one of those ‘fun for a few seconds’ internet blog-things. We can blame 1WineDude for setting this one off. He turns out to be a Sauvignon Blanc, while Rob over at The Wine Conversation is a Pinot Gris. Bit miffed at being a Merlot, if truth be told, if only because of the ‘greasy pizza’ reference. I’m sure I can do better than that!
Mind you everything else is pretty accurate!

You Are Merlot

Smooth, confident, and popular – you’re the type most likely to order wine for the whole group.
You seem to breeze through life on your intuition and wit. And no one seems to mind!
You’re comfortable in any social situation you find yourself in, and you never feel outclassed.
And while you live a charmed life, you never let it go to your head. You are truly down to earth and a great friend.

Deep down you are: Balanced and mature

Your partying style: Surprisingly wild… when you let loose, you really let loose

Your company is enjoyed best with: Some greasy pizza

Oh, gosh, I’m allegedly Chardonnay. I’m glad I don’t have to reveal my answers too.

Wine Tasting Tuscan Style

Opening with the ‘basic’ wines he was almost apologetic at their simplicity. Personally I found them a delight; no idea of price at the time (the top of the range comes in at a very reasonable €20 cellar door) but to a bottle these ‘lesser’ wines were lovely, offering a balanced richness, a true regional acidic streak in the RI.VA.LE Chianti and a touch riper, softer palate to the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.
