About Me

I live in the tropical state of Queensland in Australia and I have been married for over 43 years to my wonderful husband. We have two grown-up daughters and two grandsons and a very bossy granddaughter I was born in England, brought up in Nigeria on the West coast of Africa, then my parents emigrated to Australia in 1970 and brought me with them! Hubby and I are owned by a cat and a dog - and love reading, socialising and travelling.

Wine

I like wine - my husband is a bit of a connoisseur and can talk about vintages, and wineries at length and with knowledge.

Me? Well I just know what I like. I can use words like nose and bouquet and length in the mouth. I understand what people mean when the say that. But I have to admit when someone says "...Ooh smell the peaches in this..." I can take a cautious sniff and think "...What the..?"

So this blog is for me. If I taste a wine and I think it is first rate, or at least a wonderful little quaffer then I will put the name of it here so I can remember it.
