One shop in particular brings in a bunch from all over each summer. <BR/><BR/>And the pizza looks pretty good, too.

Speaking of The Gazette,(unsurprisingly) The Caveman is now the Gazoo columnist. FYI - I also saw a good writeup by Mechant Raisin on the SAQ rose releases.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07747056255576335926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18717316.post-78954632638006056722007-07-13T07:11:00.000-04:002007-07-13T07:11:00.000-04:00Hmmm... while I've had Bobal rosés, I'm not sure I...Hmmm... while I've had Bobal rosés, I'm not sure I've had a Spanish rosé before either.<BR/><BR/>At the SAQ, many Spanish rosés are sparkling. And many of them are made with Bobal. It turns out the midi conseil featured a Bobal sparkling rosé and yet it was a vin de pays d'Oc rather than Spanish.<BR/><BR/>Bobal is supposed to produce deeply red-pigmented wines which have high acidity and low alcohol. You probably know more about Spanish wines than me though...Marcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221624021529319291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18717316.post-31998752504802211602007-07-12T21:02:00.000-04:002007-07-12T21:02:00.000-04:00Heeees baaaack!
