podcast· 36:58410 Utviklet vin til mat
Gamle flasker blir ofte ekstra støvete simpelthen fordi du ikke finner den riktige anledningen til å sprette dem. For hvert år som går, stiger forventingene til hva vinen skal levere. Det kan være nok å konsentrere seg om det som er i glasset, det er ikke nødvendig å spise noe til. Av og til kan nostalgi være godt nok følge. Våre erfaringer viser likevel at utviklet vin er mer anvendelig til mat enn det fersk vin er. Spesielt gjelder det for rødvin. Det er akkurat som om vinen bretter seg ut og blir mindre kompakt etter hvert som den utvikler seg, og dominerer vanligvis maten mindre enn det en fersk vin kan gjøre. Aromabildet strekker seg som et trekkspill fra det ferske og ned i de dype lagringsaromaene. Slike lagringsaromaer er lettere å koble til aromaene i maten fordi de oftere likner de man finner i mat. En godt utviklet vin er rik på nyanser og kontraster. Maten vi setter til, bør ikke overkjøre disse nyansene. --- Oppskrifter til utviklet vin Utviklet vin til mat Japanske klippf

Another wine from Langham in Dorset, and this one was awarded best Blanc de Noirs at the WineGB Awards 2025. It's almost double the price of Langham Pinot dominant Culver which I recently reviewed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpC6Cn1iqKY ...is it worth the price hike? Slightly incongruously this tasting was on the South Downs. A bit coals to Newcastle (or something like that) but there you go.
