Refreshingly good

After the storm of the previous night, the garden looked refreshed, the foliage was looking just that little bit greener, the grass not quite so dry and now the roses were looking ready to have another flush of flowers.

We had a guest coming for dinner, who we hadn’t seen for a while, so for an aperitif we felt like trying a blanc de blanc from Drappier. It was chilled nicely and suitably fruity to get our taste buds tingling. It is a rather delicious and delicate wine, and was very enjoyable as a pre dinner tipple with our dinner guest.
