I am resolute in my New Year’s Resolutions. Why do we make them? To have more fun in the coming year of course. I asked my grade 12 class if they made resolutions and they looked at me like I was some sort of fossilized alien – more so than usual. I argued that resolutions made life more fun and interesting – still nothing from them.
I’m already well underway with my 2012 resolutions – one of which was to try cooking different proteins (“the non-meat kind?” my wife asked – silly girl). Duck confit was on the menu already and rabbit has also been braised. But the resolution, of which I am resolute, that matters for this blog is my resolve to drink wines that I don’t usually drink. I’ll let you know what I find.
This was a nice Pinotage blend from South Africa – I think I got the last one in Guelph – but tell me what wine you are going to try this year?

Vouvray. Noticed it in the Vintages catalog. Have never had it.

Ah Chenin blanc from the Loire – thanks for getting the ball rolling Blair

My annual resolution is always to drink more!
