Sisters and brothers, it is with great honor and privilege that I present to you three selected wines from the wine exhibition in Gothenburg.
I am usually not a fan of wine labeled by famous people and tend to avoid it. However, after connecting with music artist Jill Johnson and learning about her sommelier background, I gained a deeper appreciation for her private label. It offers a variety that appears American-styled but ultimately delivers the famous Zinfandel taste.
As usual, a couple of Rieslings stand out, playing well in different areas. Perhaps the Riesling is still the master of grapes, and Germany perfects its creation. The Kallfelz Sensus Riesling Hochgewächs Trocken is a dry and elegant wine, while the Deidesheimer Herrgottsacker Riesling Spätlese offers sweet tones yet maintains a developed taste that is not too sweet.
They usually say, ‘Black velvet and a boy’s smile, in a Southern style, Black velvet if you please.’ And I say, ‘Dinner time with Black velvet, if you please.’
This is one of my favorite ties, adorned with a Fleur-de-lis pattern, a gift from a dear friend who has significant Hungarian connections.
The Fleur-de-lis is not just a symbol; it’s a kind of magic that resonates within your soul and mind, enduring across millennia, echoing Hungary’s own survival as a nation-state for over a thousand years.
It was Charles I, King of Hungary, who skillfully incorporated the Fleur-de-lis into the national coat of arms, blending it with the traditional per pale design of the Angevins, the Capetian dynasty in France who ruled and developed selected parts of Europe.
Pardon our appearance as we enter the theatre district. Nothing rivals what we are currently witnessing; this city is made of this district. So, dressed up in Barbour, we are ready to embrace this day as king and queen.
