Nederburg Pinotage 2008



Finally, summer-like weather has come! Visiting friends at their delightfully renovated vintage home in the suburbs. Stealing a nap on a corner sofa during a rain shower on Saturday afternoon; waking to a bird chirping happily just outside the window. Then, an outside barbecue with fancy French sausages, couscous, vegetables, crackers and cheese. Now that's the good life!

Nederburg Pinotage 2008: Smells like motor oil. Downing it, feels like I'm breathing fiery vapors for about 2 minutes afterward. Back of the head hurts; may or may not be related.

Cork top. Alcohol content 14%. Price about $12. Blechs 3/5.
