Taste Along with Adam the Wine Guy #12 - Daphne

...you say mal-vah-see-uh, i say mal-vay-see-a..you say tow-may-tow, i say tow-mah-tow, ahhh, lets just call the whole thing off...no, wait, lets not, lets just say that either pronunciation will work just fine..there are soo many grape varietals, countries and regions out there, that there are bound to be grapes that are exactly the same, but different names or pronunciations are correct depending on where the wine is from and what country you are in..take syrah for example, in Australia, its shiraz, in france its syrah, california syrah..so there is one right off the bat for you..don't get bogged down in the minutia of pronunciation, really, by the time your done with a bottle or two anyhow, the thing that really matters is the experience you come away with..this Malvasia, is a really cool one, definately off the beaten path..with a hint of effervescence, makes an interesting but still Italian alternative to a prosecco (which is a grape)..nice, light, and refreshing..

a summer refresher with the 2003, Medici Ermete, Daphne, Malvasia
