I've been looking at a bottle of Evans & Tate Gnangara Cabernet Merlot for weeks. 

Might drink it for my birthday now you've reminded me.

Isn't there an old saying, One for the cook and one for the pot.

 

People often add red wine to things like stroganoff but I think a dash of orange juice works better.  It makes it really fresh and you can't taste the orange at all.

That old cook Keith something or other springs to mind. I recall watching him down glass after glass of wine and occasionally he'd chuck some in whatever he was cooking and go "What a waste...".

I do remember him Martini.  I just went and wiki'd because I couldn't remember his name.  It was Keith Floyd.

 

He had been diagnosed with cancer but I think it was actually the alcohol that killed him.

So, how do all you wine drinkers rate my Gnangara?

Has anyone tried it?

Do I need lemonade?

I'm actually in the process of makng my own strawberry wine.. I have also just made mead which is a medieval honey wine


 

 

strawberries are so expensive. Is it even worth it?

I've had a Gnangara Shiraz. Was only cheap I think? $12? Does that sound right?

 

But was my type of wine - strong and sweet. I might have added lemonade to it anyway lol!

No idea, it was a gift from a pollie for a demo of my NBN setup.

 

 

I don't know Freaki but Evans and Tate is a good winery.  I'm sure it will be nice.  When is your birthday?

We only needed 1.6 Kilos for the wine and Strawberries were cheap at Aldi

 

We'll end up with just under a gallon of wine
