Kicking off the kicking back…

IMG_3363A pleasant start to the weekend. The ‘Fleur de Mer’ is from one of my favorite appelations for rosé wines, the Côtes de Provence – wild strawberry, melon, and lavender aromas. Very similar on the palate with the addition of citrus and a bit of minerality. Served up with a couple of distinctly different cheeses: Toma – soft and mild with a note of barely ripened butter; Broncha – semi-hard, complex, nutty, moderately sharp. Fruit smuggled in from a nearby reception by one of my operatives – lol

This is a blog dedicated to visual and written subject matter for food and wine enthusiasts. The focus is on the interaction of flavors, not just ingredients. Just as music is often described as a language, so, too, is cooking and flavors are its vocabulary. Good cooks, chefs, gourmets, and foodies are the gastronomic analogs of writers, poets, painters, and musicians.
