"What a year!" (2014)
2014's exceptionally long, warm summer brings anticipation for an incredible harvest ... or another Mother Nature curve ball. Or ... this could be the vintage of the century!
Sept. 10, 2014 and a bottle of 2012 Terra Madre
Popped a bottle for a simple dinner of chicken tenders sautéed in olive oil and Chilean spices with a side of roasted Padrone peppers. I hadn’t a chance to taste the wine before I munched on a fiery Padrone (shit happens, adventures in eating, I don’t mind).
