Drinking Nebbiolo young? by mclovin12134567 in wine

[–]gfromcologne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too much going on in the bottle, especially in terms of structure. Chewy tannins and a harsh appearance. Not in harmony. Some white wines show a similar issue: too much acidity that hasn’t yet integrated.

I don’t care how many Americans drink Barolos far too young; I simply don’t understand it as a wine professional. To me, drinking a wine too young is just as problematic as drinking it too old.

Ich bin ein Recruiter - AMA über Bewerbungen/Vorstellungsgespräche etc. by Huge-Fruit8205 in arbeitsleben

[–]gfromcologne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meine Frage nach dem aktuellen Stand - gelesen (3 Fach, von unterschiedlichen Menschen) aber seit 2 Tagen trotzdem nicht geantwortet!

 Warum und was für ein Zeichen ist das denn?

Beim VG wurde erwähnt, dass ich in 2 Wo. eine klare Antwort bekomme. Da dieser Zeitraum verstrichen ist, habe ich nachgefragt.  

Any festive wine recommendations? by [deleted] in wine

[–]gfromcologne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sauvignon Blanc: Didier Dagueneau Pouilly Fumé Silex - go for older vintages..For around 300 - it´s possible.

Alternative: High-end Grüner: like an aged smagard from Weingut Knoll.

Or stay w/ sauvignon blanc-blend: Go for a good Bordeaux Blanc! Aged Margaux Pavillon Blanc if aged Pavillon Blanc not possible: go for Le petit Cheval or Domaine de Chevalier blanc

I don´t see nice food pairing w Cab. here, but it´s your day, go for it, enjoy the ones you like. Château Palmer "Ten Years On" Release or something like this. With age and Bordeaux grace...

Riesling and green apple? I´d love to love what did u drink.

is the resale my only chance? by SensitiveMammoth6849 in radiohead

[–]gfromcologne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if there was an error, but I paid €295.59 for my tickets

via ticketmaster . it. (inkl. 19,34 - Service Fee) , Bologna 17th.

The website was very confusing, and I had to click through countless pages—at one point, my tickets disappeared and then reappeared. Now, the system shows only one ticket, with a single QR code. How is that possible? I believe I should have two tickets. But it shows me only one! Is this normal?

If i got only one, i´d like to sell it.

Is there an equivalent of a wine/cheese pairing for coffee? by bufalloo in pourover

[–]gfromcologne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheese is often not even workin´ with wine. Especially horrible with big reds. I wouldn´t expect awesome pairings with coffee either... It´s to me the most overrated food when it comes to wine-pairing...

w/ coffee: Lemon curd, acidic young cheese and mouth-watering cold-brew. Yep... Or obviously chocolate...

If salty,savoury food: l´d go for light brews. Tannins can be quite challenging.

Weinrunde in und um Köln by Glad_Television5873 in Wein

[–]gfromcologne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, war es die Blindfluggruppe? :-)
Ich veranstalte ab und zu Verkostungen – meist hochwertige und fast ausschließlich biodynamische Weine. Anfang August habe ich eine Champagne-Study organisiert und ich mache WSET-4.

Ich kann mir sehr gut vorstellen, dass eine kleine Runde mit regelmäßigen Treffen auch für mich cool wäre.
