Julislipp Vinmonopolet

Gjesp var en nærliggende tanke der den ene vinen mer uinspirert enn den andre ble helt i glasset. Jeg har fartet Europa rundt i hele våres, å smake polets 70 julinyheter var den daffeste smakingen av de alle. Heldigvis smakte ikke Pet Natene bare ølgjær men hvorfor betale så mye for viner som ikke er mer komplekse og spennende? Nei, det er enklest å styre unna hele dette slippet og konse på noe av det som kommer i bestillingsutvalget. Der kommer det noen perler. 

Egentlig bare disse fire jeg anbefaler utenom BU på dette slippet: XX betyr anbefalt. Det er flere av champagnene som er helt greie kjøp men den som er anbefalt og uthevet har det mest karakterfulle utrykket.
