Today’s wine is Comenge from Ribera del Duero in Spain. I love to drink Tempranillo wine. Complex and good value for its quality. It’s full body red wine with garnet colour. It’s medium(+) intensity wine with medium(+) acidity and high tannin. ABV is 14% however doesn’t feel so heavy. Fruity wine with aroma of black berry, red cherry, plum, cassis and bell pepper. It’s well matured and there is a hint of chocolate and earthy aroma as well. I paired with western food at home such as steak, stuffed mashroom and garlic bread.

How to preserve your wine once it’s opened? There are some ways to do that. But I found vacuum pump is easiest and cheapest. You just have to place stopper on top of the bottle and pump it for around 10 times. You can pump out the air to avoid oxidation of wine. You can keep your wine fresh for days after opening!
