Just some random wine recommendations!

Hey it's nice coming back with some simple wine recommendations. Been wanting to share this for so long but just haven found much time to pen it down in here! Well...so now that we're back in this space...enjoy!

Went to Winebos not very long ago with some of my colleagues for some chilling session and found some really nice deals back there. 3 bottles of nice wine and the bill was less then 100 bucks SGD, how's that sound to u?

We ordered 2 bottles of German Rieslings (cos' it was a well-loved wine by us) as well as a nice new south wales dessert wine. Perfect for accompaniment anytime of the day! And here's some details to let u in for some soul temptation and inspiration for some glasses of wine tonight...

Here's the first one:
Deinhard's 'Green Label' Riesling
It's got an ideal balance of fruit and crisp finish there. A surprising delightful bounce of gas may be found in this bottle of Riesling which might lead you to wonder if you're really drinking Riesling or some sparkling wine. The taste is really light and can easily go together with veal fish and fowl, or even some seafood! Perhaps owing to the light and apple-ish taste, one can easily find him/herself sipping and falling in love with this member of wine all throughout the night! *cheers*
(Alc. 10% vol, 750ml)

And after some light tasting and chilling German Riesling, time to give our tongues a twist of mood now...(^^)

Some dessert wine for toast:
Noble Cuvee from Cassegrain

A easily fall in love wine yet again. Who hates dessert wine really? One great product from New South Wales and a botrytis affected late harvest. *Remember all the introduction of noble rot when we were talking about ice wine? I lurrrveee this botrytis affected product*
With a deep golden eye flavour, welcome and indulge your taste buds with the intense honey apricot and marmalade entrance as you take a sip. And one thing worth noting is that while the sweet cover of this wine might be the first thing you ever notice, try sucking some air into your mouth with the wine to experience the alcohol hidden within the sweet cover and you'll be pleasantly surprised by the existence of the 13% alcohol content that would otherwise stay hidden forever. I totally enjoyed it! Match it with some fruit driven dessert and blue cheese for some added enjoyment too!
(Alc. 13% vol, 375ml)

Hope you enjoy these recommendations folks! Oh...and if you're thinking of dropping by Winebos tonight, it would be nice to find someone with a Citibank credit card so that you can enjoy (like me and my colleagues did), a buy-2-bottles-get-1-bottle-free offer!! So yep...3 bottles for the price of 2! Enjoy once again and *prost*!
