zaan –
This wine speaks to me. On many levels!!
It has beautiful elegance – not trying to be smart, or OTT, it hits the spot.
It has shared lots of my secrets with friends and on numerous occasions with me, myself and I. There is a connection!!
I’m still trying to figure out ‘his/her’ secret – and I won’t give up!
Thank you!!
