It felt like Christmas on Thursday at the Barrel Room. We received a Le Nez du Vin master kit along with a wine faults kit and a New Oak kit. What a tremendous surprise and
wonderful follow up to Nikki’s post
on Monday. The giver still remains a mystery…
We had a blast opening the tiny bottles and guessing what
smell was what. The master set
contains a plethora of smells like violet, butter, vanilla, melon, walnut. Some of these smells are scents I have
experienced in wine, that I couldn’t identify previously. This is a tremendous addition to the
bar and I look forward to developing my sense of smell in my free time, sharing our new smelly bottles with guests and sharing smelling revelations on the blog.
Thank you to our mysterious benefactor!
