Comments for Chronic Negress http://chronicnegress.net Wine, knitting, hockey, travel and sickness, all from a Negress of some distinction Sat, 13 Jun 2009 15:52:25 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 Comment on Wine Blogging Wednesday #58: Music and Wine by ribbie http://chronicnegress.net/2009/06/12/wine-blogging-wednesday-58-music-and-wine/#comment-175 ribbie Sat, 13 Jun 2009 15:52:25 +0000 http://chronicnegress.net/?p=354#comment-175 I really liked how you compared elements of wine to music: fruit as melody; oak as percussion; acids and tannin to the skilled hand of the conductor. Don't know Airbone Toxic, but have read one Delillo - White Noise, many years ago. I like some indie rock and never tire of Petit Sirah so will have to try out this combination. I'd like to see recommended music pairings on wine labels.

I could do with a trip to somewhere with complete isolation - not many ferries saling to Antartica unfortunately. These were excellent posts – making me quite jealous actually.

You can even still get your hands on a few 05 vintage wines for less than $20. I'd recommend some of the Concha Y Toro Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignons.
