Surveyed the state of the fruit bearing flora in the garden this afternoon - surprisingly we actually seem to have a couple of tomatoes!

Also today a delivery of Gavignet wines from Tom, another really interesting selection of wines not currently advertised on the wine list on his website. I decided it might be good to start writing down tasting notes for these, and Erika kindly let me have a little notebook of hers to do so in.

Today's tasting notes: Gavignet Bourgogne Hautes Cote de Nuits "Clos de Dames Huguettes" 2016. Sweet / candied / morello cherry on nose. Nice fresh acidity, juicy very soft tannins. Youthful, lovely, light. Not sure it went with tapas though.
