Domaine Brusset is a relatively large producer in Rhone. This wine is from an appelation in Southern Rhone called Gigondas created in 1971. Unlike Northern Rhone, which employs solely Syrah. The wine would probably be a combination of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, Carrigane and Cinsault. On the nose, some cherry liqueur or kirsch character popped out mixing with some earthy barnyard but the wine was not giving much. I deliberately aired the wine before tasting but still…more cherry fruit and dry berry/flower characters came out upon tasting. It has a medium to full body followed with some astringency characters like bitter lemon/tangerine. The tannin is sandy, mouth coating and immediately dried out the tongue. The finish is relatively short and leaving my mouth dry. The style is traditional and backward. I fail once again why the both WA and WS rated this wine so high (93 and 94 points respectively) in the past. (87-89 points) rated by Michael Lam of the Beverage Review.

I spilt red wine ove my new sofas. When I first got them I pre treated them which does look like it helped a lot. but theres still some tint there. HELP!
I have no clue about the fiber content. Its just a basic cloth.
The best way to get red wine out of a new sofas is to rinse with warm water and then blot clean with alcohol. For tough stains, pretreat with a commercial spot remover and then rinse. I hope this was some help. This is a great website for stain removal. http://www.savetimeandmoneyathome.com
If you test this in a non-visible area first, it won't matter what the fiber content is. I do know that if it is in clothes you can soak it with white wine and then rinse with cool water and then launder with an enzyme detergent like era.

After having really bad nightmares about four times,I began to look for the reason. The only thing I had done different was drink red wine and only about two glasses because I really don't like the taste, I was being polite to my host at the time. Is there anyone else out there who has this type of problem?
no. I've had cateplexy though, thats scary!!

It's almost christmas and I'm looking for some last minute gift ideas for my girlfriends parents. The mother loves fruity wines and the father loves red wine. I need to find two wines, preferably wines that I can find at an LCBO or a winery in the Toronto area. I'm very inept when it comes to wines and all the help that can be provided would be very appreciated.
Thanks
A good choice for sweet wine:
Rieslings have a floral aroma. They range from very dry and crisp to intensely sweet depending on where it is from. German Riesling is slightly sweet and balanced with some acidity. California Riesling tends to be sweeter.
A good choice for red wine:
Zinfandel can be light to full bodied. It can be rich and spicy or lighter and fruitier. Aromas and flavors that are typical include raspberry, jam, black pepper, and licorice. A specific Zin suggestion -
Renwood 2004 Old Vine Zinfandel
The 2004 Old Vine Zinfandel is medium ruby in color. The bouquet consists of brown sugar, caramel, sage, eucalyptus, and bursting with dark berry fruit. The flavor is a sumptuous blend of warm blackberries on the entry, with a hint of dried fruit, finishing with sweet fleshy tannins.(around $20)
If you can't find Renwood other good wineries are Rosenblum, Serghesio, and Ridge.
Good luck!
