TN: My first true wine note.
You'll find yourself using a bit of code in your Wine Diary, at times. What a wonderful evening -- and I don't mean just the wine.
[i]5/4/95 1978 Château Trottevieille St. Émilion Bordeaux France. [Often Trotte Vieille as in Duijker and Broadbent; named after an old woman who served her customers very quickly - the "galloping granny."] 750 FF. Dinner with Janet at a wonderful inn, Ferme Saint Siméon, Honfleur in Normandy, France; fish and vegetables. Lovely aroma of violets and other flowers, light tannin, long finish. Romantic dinner. Janet liked the wine so much that she made a note of the name of the Château. 5*. [/i]
