This was our monthly wine tasting held at Carrabba’s in Willow Grove, PA.
It’s about 15ish minutes from Ivyland.

Janis sends out the monthly reminder to come drink wine.
Friend TOMMY – he’s a regular!
|
|
|
|
First up was this Chardonnay.
2008 Joel Gott – It was nice.
Crisp & full bodied – I’d recommend it –
Should be able to find it in your local stores.
|
|
|
|
|
wine was paired with DELICIOUS SHRIMP SCAMPI
|
|
|
|
next we paired a MERLOT with Involtini with Broccoli –
Chicken breast stuffed with cheese, spinach, sausage –
grilled to perfection…..mmmmm
|
|
|
|
our friend AL didn’t like it all as you can see……
I thought I could get him licking the plate –
no such luck this time!
|
|
|
|
2006 Peju Cabernet was our next tasting.
It’s a Napa Valley – rich, dark colored wine –
…velvety finish..
|
|
|
|
the wine was “tight” & needed to breathe –
so wine rep Erika decanted it before serving
|
|
|
|
Cab was paired with a Lamb Chop –
Al’s wife Eileen got mine… I’m not a lamb chop gal –
but i heard it was VERY TASTY
|
|
|
|
PORT was our last tasting.
it has aromas of raisined berry fruit, chocolate,
caramel & orange peel. Good enough to drink by itself.
Compliments dessert nicely
|
|
|
|
mmmm DESSERT ……
Cheesecake served with salted cashews, caramel
& Chocolate. What’s NOT to like??
