A magical time of holiday season kicked off few weeks earlier for me in getting passage to Europe while no doubt that for very many people it began with victory of order in US elections which defeated chaos shatteringly and from there I already sensed America which was before. I couldn’t but express gratitude to both these things in Thanksgiving.
I have a bottle of 2015 Igino Cabernet Sauvignon Veronese with 16,5%. I experienced that quantity of degrees in Calle Merlot Veronese, which also from same winemaker Fasoli Gino which manufactures since 1925 and it’s characteristically for them to make drinks with such strong. That suddenly detected Italian beverage contains one Cabernet Sauvignon and I had no in remembrance on using of it individually before. While actually, as I found out, I had it two times in Gamla Cabernet Sauvignon and San Pedro 1865 Selected Collection Seventy Years Old Vines Cabernet Sauvignon and I always concluded “it’s not my grape”. I couldn’t say other to myself than “drunk”.
At evening before, I prepared my piece of turkey which was in fusion of shin and thigh. It was covering in three and quarter of tablespoon of balsamic vinegar on two sides from still same bottle which mostly stays in basement for these three and half years (believe me, you are not alone who surprise to that.). Fortunately, a validity period willn’t end soon and I emptied a big part of it. Then I salted, peppered and sprinkled basil and oregano from packs of Kotanyi which only and the best in my circumstances. I relocated dish in basement with hope that my cat willn’t find out how to open doors to there and eat my Thanksgiving dinner.
Fortunately, it didn’t occur. But I didn’t forget to share turkey with her. I cooked dish in oven in one hour and forty minutes with leaving food inside while I was taking chunks from there for some time. I didn’t step away from familiar ingredients which worked and turned celebration to spectacular. And it was by wine too. Inhaling of drink discloses taste of plum in sniffing and using. You experience degree but it is advantage for wine. This age and condition of Cabernet Sauvignon doesn’t touch impeccable due to plum isn’t taste of mine solidarity but it’s ideal drink nevertheless. I will satisfy to use Igino Cabernet Sauvignon Veronese again and anytime. Nothing pinches your inner of mouth (it only brings caressing.) and aftertaste is hovering and without effect of big quantity usage.
