Wining with Mel

Wining with Mel’s first time ever in Niagara! winingwithmel.com/first-time-nia…

@Champagnewines @Liebherr This is awesome!!

Bought my little house built in 66’ 3.5 years ago. From day one, thought of retrofitting a wine fridge into a linen closet. Thanks to #universalappliances @Liebherr and the best handyman (pm for his info) my vision came through! Few more touches and project done!

Here's my #crémantdalsace post: winingwithmel.com/baumann-zirgel…

Hey everyone, I'm Mel, from @WiningWithMel , checking in from Ottawa, Canada!

You know it's bad when they close the liquor store for people's safety for the third day in a row. #gohometruckers

Awesome article from @CrushGrapeChron on Walsh & Sons - Next-Generation Wines from Margaret River in Western Australia #WorldWineTravel crushedgrapechronicles.com/walsh-sons-nex…

@foodwineclick Thanks for sharing, Jeff!

@savortheharvest nice 👍

@LizGabayMW No, just that everyone has different ideas of what each name means. I think that's what the Nuancier tries to standardize, but I not sure how many people know of it.

@WiningWithMel Does the name of the colour matter? #winophiles

Colour can be so subjective, n'est-ce pas? I would categorize this rosé as pale salmon, but I think the Centre du Rosé nuancier may consider it more "peach" or "melon". #roseallday #winophiles

@jillbarth @LizGabayMW I agree with Jill here. I love Languedoc rosé as well.

@LizGabayMW I have really enjoyed rosé from Languedoc and Roussillon in fact! I think in the US we get more côtes de Provence than anything else. Big market! #winophiles

#Provence is one of the finest standard bearers for rosé. Do you have a favorite appellation that expresses the purity, freshness, and terroir of the region? #Winophiles

@Culinary_Cam If you want cold, head to Ottawa, where it was a chilly -26° Celsius (-15° F) this week. That's why I prefer to be in the Caribbean ☺️

#Winophiles. Wondering When Winter Will Arrive... but I happily sipped a Provençe Rosé while the temps hovered in the 70s this week.

According to @vinsdeprovence, “Don’t be fooled by appearances, you don’t choose a Provence rosé by its color, which ranges from pale pink to orange.” Share about the shade of one of your fave Provence rosé wines, #Winophiles.

@LizGabayMW Haha too funny. A tale of two St. Martins!

@WiningWithMel Hi from St Martin in south east France #winophiles

Hi, it's Mel, blogging on winingwithmel.com from St. Martin in the French West Indies. #winophiles

@foodwineclick This is a great question. So hard to put the distinct feel of these places into words. I love both Provence and Languedoc...and their food and wines!

How amazing does this gratin look?!

@Culinary_Cam Oh wow this brings me back. This was one of my favourite meals as a kid (actually it probably still is).

I **always** prepare something to eat. LOL. In this case I did what my boys called "French Mac and Cheese." LOL. Pasta au Gratin. Link here -> …nary-adventures-with-cam.blogspot.com/2022/01/pasta-… #Winophiles
