Auguri!
One brilliant Album
After the rather disappointing last album, my favorite US rapper NAS is back with a heavy new album «Hip Hop Is Dead». Big!! As good or better than «God's Son» and that's heavy.
Check how they use the Nat King Cole track «Unforgettable» - that's big! At one point the singer Chrisette Michele actually sings a duet with Cole.
Some of the best tracks are without featurings, just NAS's brilliant rhyming over some bad ass beats.
Tonight's Wine
First bottle in a series of fine Bordeaux wines generously donated to Bundlebit B&B :-)
A 2001 Chateau Berliquet (Saint Emilion Grand Cru) with a beautiful nose, is surprisingly smooth to drink. Nice!
Grapes: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc
What winesdirect.ie say about this wine:
Vanilla and blackcurrant abound on the nose. Opulant, rich, velvety and well balanced.
This is a very old cru that was already famous at the end of the eighteenth century. Well located on the top of St-Martin’s plateau, with the classic combination of the two grape varieties in the right proportions, the château takes advantage of the master skills of the wine-maker, Patrick Valette, who also exercises in Château La Prade.
