Red Bach wine musical wine2

November 23, 2005 at 11:36 AM

After Janacek-beer, Vieux Temps-beer and Saint-Saens-wine I found Bach wine as musical drink.
I don’t know whether Johan Sebastian Bach has ever tasted the wine of the region Masia Bach Penedes near Barcelona, Spain? I found this red wine with the name of this great composer, funny as a gift to violinists. Text on the backside of the bottle says: “Aged in American oak during 6 months. Cherry red colour with ruby hints. Wide bouquet of fruits and vanilla. Balanced, persistent, rounded tannins. Serve between 16-18 °C.”
On the frontside the text says: Put in the bottle: Masia Bach, 08635 BARCELONA , Spain. EMB. 421-B R.S.I. 30-1715B. 75 cl. Alc. 12,5% vol BACH Vina Extrisima 2000 CATALUNYA Denominació d’Origen.
It is a quite strong wine. The Saint-Saens wine is lighter with more a blackberrytaste.
