USA: finding obscure Spanish wine - 10/22/05 07:52 PM
Evenin' all,
We fell in love in Andalucia with a FABULOUS wine and we can't find it anywhere here! and we're in New York City, for crying out loud!!
Yes, I know we should have bought more bottles than just the one but we couldn't imagine that here, of all places, it would be so hard to find. People with a vast knowledge of wine haven't even heard of it. Anyway- The name of the maker is Gutierrez-Colosia, the wine is Pedro Ximenez, a sweet dessert wine. Tastes like nothing else I've ever tasted and it evokes the lovely restaurant in Cordoba where they introduced us to this amazing wine, on the house...
Ah, Andalucia...
Thanks!
