Bottle Business
Saturday was my birthday and nearly all of the gifts came in bottle form. Sidebar: ever notice how many different shapes bottles come in? Turns out the bottle tells you all kinds of things about the wine. Try identifying where the five bottles above come from (hint: none of them are verdejo. also, my hints are worthless). Check out this link for the answers (and that cool image).
Ciao botellas
But yes, friends and relatives were kinda amazing about the wine this weekend. Most of them were too good to make it through the night and have already metamorphed into bygone memories of summer yore. Some are still sitting in my cellar (better known as the storage cage in the basement), ready for their day at making memories.
Verdejo – Heart of Spain
One bottle even contained a grape not yet on this blog – Verdejo. Spanish as the word Seleño, pasty white in color and with sarcastic minerality, this is Verdejo. It’s the heart of Spain, both in location (from center left on the medical coloring book of Spain’s body – Castile y Leon) and in history (castellaño, another way to say español, comes from the Castile y Leon King who conquered Spain and came up with that weird lispy way of speaking). h/t wineonhigh for the image.
Mountain White
Verdejo used to be made into fortified wine, sorta nutty like a sherry, but at a fraction of the price. There it remained for over a thousand years until the 1970s when wine-making powerhouse Marqués de Riscal started experimenting with white wine up in the mountains. Results have been really good according to the (three) people I’ve spoken with who had heard of Verdejo. Count me in as #4 for liking this wine.
Taste
Tried this one twice – once after “tasting” many other wines, once the next day when actually focusing. what I got between those two was pretty fragrant smell (lost some on day 2), big peach taste with full rounded mouth, medium acidity and stony taste. Big enough that your mom will like it, acid enough that your wino brother will too. Bring to family events.
Detail Up!
Shaya 2009 Verdejo Old Vine from Rueda in Castile y Leon, Spain
Random Googles:
* Verdejo is harvested at night, by vampires. Part of that statement is true.
* North Africa is Verdejo’s true home, pre-11th century when it came to Rueda.
* V is for Value, not just Verdejo. $10-15 for almost everything on the market.

Here’s to being a stickler… but shouldn’t it either be Castilla y Leon or Castile and Leon?? 🙂

Who’s Leon? I would like to inquire about his castle.

The core of your writing whilst appearing reasonable in the beginning, did not really work very well with me personally after some time. Somewhere within the paragraphs you were able to make me a believer unfortunately just for a very short while. I however have a problem with your leaps in assumptions and you would do nicely to help fill in those gaps. When you can accomplish that, I would definitely be fascinated.

Ein hoher maximaler Bonusbetrag oder eine hohe Anzahl an Freispielen im Aplauz Casino hört

Games like Jacks or Better, Deuces Wild, and Joker Poker are popular among Australian players who enjoy skill-based gameplay.
Many sites also feature variations of these games, such as European vs.
American roulette or multi-hand blackjack, keeping the experience fresh and engaging.
Australian players can enjoy classics like blackjack,
roulette, and baccarat, each offering different rules, strategies, and
betting styles.
I love that beyond the gaming, the venue offers
luxury hotel rooms, fine dining, and even a theatre, so it’s not
just about gambling but a full entertainment experience. Being on the casino floor, watching the dealers, and seeing the
games in action gives you a different perspective that
online platforms can’t fully replicate. As someone who prefers to
play in person, I’m not ashamed to say that I’ve visited almost
every online casino under the sky in Australia (especially during my
peak poker days).
If crypto casino gambling sounds intriguing to you, you now know exactly
which category of top Australian online casinos you should go for!Instead of being islands unto themselves, Australian online casino sites today actually let you play a few multiplayer games as well.
Most of us would happily redeem a sturdy Australian casino bonus and a
few free spins on top every time that we visit Aussie online casinos.References:

If you search rocketplay vip terms, you’ll see conversion rates for XP to SP and the seasonal mechanics that keep top players engaged.
Search rocketplay payment or rocketplay-casino cashier for the latest deposit options in your region before making a transfer.
This block summarises what to look for when comparing rocketplay, rocket play
and rocketplay casino options. Besides slots, you can enjoy
hundreds of table games or live casinos and many more.
RocketPlay Casino has established itself as a prominent online gambling platform targeting
Australian players since its launch in 2020. You might win some
on your first deposits but then the games stop paying,
even when you hit bonus games you don’t win much at all, not enough to withdraw.
This gamified system adds an extra layer of fun and engagement for loyal
players.RocketPlay supports a wide range of payment options, including Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, and cryptocurrencies.As you play, you earn “astrocoins” that can be exchanged for bonuses, free spins, and other perks.
All bonus terms are clearly explained, so players know exactly what they’re
getting.RocketPlay stands out with its loyalty program and unique rewards
shop, RocketMart. The massive game selection provides endless entertainment options, while the robust bonus
program offers generous rewards from sign-up through to regular play.We’re not saying to bet pennies on your favourite games, but don’t spend all your cash in one place
(or on a single spin). Managing your bankroll is the key to
sustained gameplay and big wins down the line, so it’s worth stretching every dollar as far
as it’ll go. While they have lower transaction limits than other fiat payment
options, they provide an additional layer of security, like Inclave casinos.
Instead of entering your bank details, you can provide the PayID casino with
your unique identifier to make deposits and receive
payouts in just a few minutes.References:
