Just Wine

Wine of multi nuanced flavour, Many coloured & aromas to savour; Final judgment,always in the taste, Swirled & swallowed without haste. Bottles,magnums & jereboam, Bouquets,hints oflemon & jam; Chadonnay,Shiraz,Sauvignon Tempranillo,Merlot jostle in a throng. Wein,germanic,labelled methodical, Whitesunsurpassed & gastronomical; Top of the list,Bernkastel Moselle, As aperitif or with food,just swell. A trinity of champagned,sherry& port, The last from political pressure brought; Once England's larges wine import, It remains,Stilton's best escort. Beaujolais,loved by the ligh-hearted, Crushed from Gamay fruit so red; Perfect to quench a lngering thirst, An annual race to the import, first. Sparkling,still,filtered or fine, None can surpass Rioja's reserva wine; From Ebro at a thousand feet, Oak aged,ripened after summer heat.
