Tasting Notes

Varietal: Strawberry Banana

Vintage: Best if used by 29MAY2025

ABV: 0.0 ☹️

Tasting Notes:

Classic O.G. pale straw alternating with a faint pink hue evenly distributed throughout the bowl. Plenty of primary aroma of banana and a generic “berry” fortified with a nutty background. Immediately an assertive sweetness of tropical and berry notes is delivered to the palate, not at all unpleasant - only surprising, given the muted nature of most offerings from this chateaux. Possesses a complex Frankenberryesque finish, moderate in length. All in all a successful blend and one of GM’s best in this category. Eat now.

Hello and welcome to another Difficult Listening Hour, where we play none of the hits and your Spotify listening history is wrecked forever. This week we are tucking in the earbuds for Michael Tippett’s A Child Of Our Time . Tippett was a left wing poster child: artist, conscientious objector, and queer. He wrote this oratorio partially as a response to Kristallnacht. Here is an English composer using African-American spirituals in the form of Handel’s Messiah to promote a message of pacifism and reconciliation. Good stuff! Check it out. Used without permission from Universal Music Group. Neener-neener!

Things are already off to a good start with an unintentional Tolkien reference. No Hobbits were harmed in the making of this music. Season  is an album best described as contemporary jazz - wait - where are you going? You haven’t been excused, yet. The best thing about this genre is how broad it is. Yes, on one end of the spectrum is what a guy I know calls “Bop-Squeak” (perfect, right?), but this album is modern and warm and lyrical without slipping into dreaded smooth jazz territory. The other best thing about the genre is there really is no wrong way to do it. There is so much freedom in the choices the artists can make! As th...

 Konichiwa, bitches.  Welcome to the virtual cave life.  No real news.  Nothing of real value.  Just an escape.  In today's top news, I had to open a new can of pumpkin for the dog's dinner.  There were some high tides too.  Oh, I also saw an eagle.  Peace out.
