Rosé of the day - Thursday August 15, 2013

 Nicolas Feuillatte Brut Rosé NV $49.99

Tasting notes: This signature of Nicolas Feuillatte; intense, impertinent pleasure! There is simply no other rosé Champagne like this cuvée from Nicolas Feuillatte. Blended from 90% red grapes with a dollop of Chardonnay, this wine explodes in the glass with vivid aromas and flavors of raspberry, strawberry and red currants.

Varietals: 60% Pinot Noir, 30% Meunier and 10% Chardonnay

Region: Champagne, France

Wednesday's answer:
With a few technical difficulties  out of the way, we are on our way with Rosé or the day. Many of you understand where we have been going with the theme this week and it was nice to see that a couple new people joined in yesterday. First on that list was first time responder and perhaps one of our towns bravest (thats a guess folks) Eric Gunnar Sundman who guessed "Jennings FIre Dept" and was correct with his guess. If I am wrong about it being your first response, I apologize.

Next up Kevin (I've always wanted to be a Fireman) Beyerly who said emphatically "Definitely Jennings fire dept, station number 2, aka The Big House" nicely done.

Following right behind Kevin was Jackie (wifey-poo) Beyerly who was the second but not last to confirm "Station 2 Jennings Fire Dept" and then added "....it is one of 5 fire stations in town....." Hmm 5 stations, what do you know about that. Seems like you could do one a day for a week. :)

Chefmichaelatyourservice aka The good chef stopped in to lend his support of the answer also "Total agreement" was his comment.

Mark (Thanks everyone but this is my job) Beyerly was next and since Kevin and Sis-in-law already put up the specifics he was left swinging in the breeze. So whats a guy to do... confirm the answer and put up a challenge... a prediction! He said "Umm. What the other guys said.... How about we predict tomorrow's location?" Good idea!

Next up and our final guesser yesterday Steve Geronimo and you can tell by his profile pic that he is one of our bravest, Thanks so much for your service to our town Steve! And send thanks to your brother on our behalf. His guess... "Jennings Rd Fire Station." and right you are. 

Finally I got back to the page and saw Mark (I have an idea) Beyerly's suggestion and put out the challenge. Sad to say that everyone realized that there were still 2 stations left and it was going to be a no win situation. Whatever you say I simply do the opposite (Especially if Mark is guessing). Now tomorrow I won't have that ability so fire away (pun intended)

Thanks for playing along!
