Summer sipping

Today's weather made me realize why I love Halifax in the summer and why Flavio and I opted on residing in this city instead of Pinerolo, Italy. (I may be cursing this town tomorrow, but for now the weather has put me in such a great mood that I'm content to be living on this side of the Atlantic.)

In honour of the first day of warm weather that we've had in a long time I picked up a mini bottle of the 2007 Joseph Drouhin St. Veran to have later tonight. The wine is very pale straw in colour with a delicate nose revealing flowers, apple and some minerality. This medium bodied wine has good minerality and bright citrus, apple and honeysuckle flavours. Makes me want to go fishing.
