無心插柳弄出一盤挺像回事的魚排大餐,當然得找隻酒來搭配。可惜唱獨角戲,缺少攝影師,更捨不得開好酒,就這樣隨便將就點啦!
不想浪費Chardonnay 白酒,乾脆來個黑白配:配Sparking Wine(Henkell Trocken Piccolo,
Henkell Trocken Piccol,是HENKELL & Co cellars 在20世紀的創舉,成功地將汽泡酒裝入200ml的瓶裝中。Piccolo不僅是品牌的一部份,更成為小瓶裝汽泡酒的同義詞。標榜easy to open, easy to drink, easy to enjoy!

這款酒含在嘴裡有著類似比一般Cabernet Sauvignon的口味再稍稍偏甜一點。或許一般的Cabernet Sauvignon應該不會有甜巧克力的味道吧!

備註: 2000年份,不知道算不算太久了,開瓶時好擔心已經走味。
