Simply GORGEOUS!

Okay, pretty babies, time to act.

Go out right now and buy a few bottles of 2005 Cotes du Rhone E. Guigal Chateau d'Ampuis Rose.

Do it. Do it now. The power of Christ compels you!

This is a lovely bottle, and I usually don't go for roses. I picked up a few bottles of rose the last time I went shopping because The Lovely And Talented Lisa wanted some, and I knew I probably wouldn't go wrong with a 2005 Cotes du Rhone.

I have to limit myself to a short glass because of the diet and the fact that wine, as wonderful as it is, really are empty calories once the ol' Krebs Cycle gets hold of it. But what a glass it is for the fifteen or so I spent on it.

Speaking of wine, whether you love it or just want to, subscribe to Wine Spectator Magazine. This is one of the most professionally produced publications of any kind, anywhere. I truly respect the creative and talented souls at Wine Spectator for their consistent quality and passion for such a worthy subject. Just click the link in Relevant Distractions on the right to get started.

Much love to you all.

KBO!
