Definitely riesling. But U know it depends on what kind of veggies, but riesling is a very nice all around grape. Can't wait till Summer to go on my wine trip to Alsace.

MORE MORE MORE. Wine and cheese- my absolute favorite things. But need to learn a lot more about these fantastic things and how they go together. Put Justin on the show soon again please. Cool guy. Epoisse, Neufchâtel (can't buy it in Denmark though), Roquefort and Fourme d'ambert. My favorite pairing is blue cheese and dessert wine. Could be cool to know if anyone is a bit more inventive and got some nice pairings to try out

Ja, ret ny. Men fuldstændig opslugt. Hvad med dig?

Kunne ikke lige svare på dit svar. Meget mærkeligt. Favoritter. I know, lige nu er jeg vild med champagne. Er total frankofil. Rhone-dalen, Bourgogne især Mersault. Alsace. skal faktisk til Alsace på vintur til sommer. Nogle gode forslag?
Heldig, hvordan? Hvad laver du da nu?

Re: Gourmet Library Cheese Tasting with Wine Pairings

Charlotte K. Jensen — Fri, 21 May 2010 05:47:02 -0000

Kan ikke finde vores tråd mere. Mærkeligt forum.

Tak for gode råd. Skal i gang med at planlægge tur til Alsace. Har du været der?

Er slet ikke fan af supermarkedsvin. Synes tit man får meget lidt for pengene. Er meget glad for Theis vine, men der betaler man også for det man får.

Ærgeligt med job, men så er der mere tid til vin :-)

Har du gode råd til, hvor jeg kan købe champagne? Er vild med champagne for tiden.

Re: Gourmet Library Cheese Tasting with Wine Pairings

Charlotte K. Jensen — Sat, 22 May 2010 03:03:20 -0000

Nuits St. Georges er virkelig elegante vine. Mersault selvfølgelig, Domaine de Chassorney har lavet en fantastisk vin der hedder Saint Romain, som er virkleig god. Det er en naturvin, som slår benen væk under en. Men ingen af dem er billige- desværre.
Tak for champagne tippet. Prøver den ved føst givne lejlighed. Er der butikker, der forhandler den eller skal den købes over nettet (vil jo helst undgå, at skulle betale fragt)

Champagne (N.V.), blanc de blancs from Camille BonVille.

Re: Thai Food and Wine Pairing

Charlotte K. Jensen — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 19:51:57 -0000

Yes, food and wine. U should have that in your show every day- one way or another. Just love it when U go back to basic and a lot of nerdy facts would be cool too :-)

QOTD: Saint Romain from Domaine de Chassorney, 2008. A bit expensive though (40 $). Cant wait to go to Alsace to try my favorite grape riesling in about a month :-)

Re: Dry German Riesling Tasting

Charlotte K. Jensen — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 05:50:28 -0000

Yep, back to basics and nerdy nerd. Love it. Riesling- my all time favorite grape. Trying to find the Leitz in Denmark, but often having a hard time finding the wines that U have on the show :-( I did find the Klaus Meierer though. Loved the acid in those. The only thing about wines in Denmark is that they are very much pricy. The one he talked about would be around 3 euros was 12 euros. Anyway love your show- maybe nerd it up a bit more. U never talk about biodynamic or natural wines. Could be cool if U started to talk about them more?

Re: Dry German Riesling Tasting

Charlotte K. Jensen — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 06:03:50 -0000

I know, men at skulle betale for fragt for en enkelt flaske til 216 kr. det er måske lige i overkanten :-(

Re: Up and Coming California Wines

Charlotte K. Jensen — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 19:54:05 -0000

Would love to taste the 2008 Booker Roussanne/ Viognier, but once again- I can't find it in Denmark. Great show. Loves these back to basics shows and love that U found some that U really liked for a very nice deal.
QOTD: I'm gonna have to quote Jimmy Trent. Had no great out side the box whites this summer. Trying new things though- went to a south african tasting the other day- nice for the price (still love the french wines in general).

Went to Bali last year. One of my favorite places in the world :-)

Re: Live Taping at the Wine Library Open House

Charlotte K. Jensen — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 07:08:59 -0000

QOTD: so many places I wanna go: India, China, Tibet, Bali (again), Thailand (again again), but for this summer I just came back from Portugal (did not care for their wines?!), next week its Alsace (riesling here I come), August its Spain (any suggestions on wine from Torrevieja, Alicante would be highly appreciated) and in October its Brazil. What can I say- just love traveling :-)

Re: Head to Head Prosecco Tasting

Charlotte K. Jensen — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 07:20:50 -0000

I like this cava as well and it is not pricy :-)

Re: Head to Head Prosecco Tasting

Charlotte K. Jensen — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 07:30:11 -0000

For a special event I would drink champagne. I know its a cliché, but thats the way it is. My favorite these days is De Sousa, tradition (50% chardonnay, 40 % Pinot, 10 % Pinot Meunier). Its made by biodynamic principles. BIG FAN.

Re: Rhone Valley Tasting

Charlotte K. Jensen — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 17:57:02 -0000

Rhône Valley and especially Saint Joseph with all its (black) pepper. I just love it. That is why its very strange that I never had a white Saint Joseph. I will definitely seek one out soon.

QOTH: well going to Alsace next week- that is "an event" I really much look forward to. Sports wise I like Tour de France (notice please that it is the danish team in yellow right now- yep yep).

Re: Rhone Valley Tasting

Charlotte K. Jensen — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 20:18:15 -0000

I hygger da rigtig.

We traveled a bit, so got around, but did not go to Lombok (changed plans to watch golf instead.) Loved Ubud and Babi Guling :-)

Re: Spanish Red Tasting with a Special Guest

Charlotte K. Jensen — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 18:01:51 -0000

What a nice show. Going to Spain next week. Maybe I should seek out some fine spanish wine. any suggestions?
QOTD: I'm paid to be an inspector at a restaurant in Copenhagen, Denmark. What I would love to get paid for (even though I like my job a lot) is to travel- or maybe even better to travel with "Nate Archibald". Who is not looking forward to the new season soon? By the way- one of the best questions on this show ever. Amazing job Jimmy.

Re: The Return of Sir Gary Vaynerchuk

Charlotte K. Jensen — Thu, 05 Aug 2010 16:24:59 -0000

Oh yes, oh yes. U made me remember why it took me so long getting in to wine- more than just drinking it. Because its so darn BORING to listen to "experts". So what U need to do is teach yourself or find guys like U Gary. I thank U from the bottom of my heart that U still take time to teach me almost every day. Right now I'm looking through every episode on spanish wine that U made since I know nothing about it and going to Spain next week. Thank U for all your help so far and in the future. Looking forward to episode 901 :-)

Re: Sancerre Blind Tasting

Charlotte K. Jensen — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 03:50:00 -0000

Love sancerre. Had a pretty nice one the other day from Francois Crochet "Exils".

Anthony Bourdain, I'm sorry to say, but has been a fan of him looooooong before I found U. "The black knight of food"- whats not to like. Well, hope U have a tremendes time and say hallo to my future husband from Denmark (yeah, I know he is married and have children, but a girl can always hope)

QOTD: what?

Re: Licorice and Wine Pairing

Charlotte K. Jensen — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 04:19:04 -0000

QOTD: U've never had real liquorice before U had the danish ones. They are salty and not sweet. I always bring a lot when I travel and give away for locals- they do NOT like it. very different to the sweet liquorice that they are used to. They often spit it out. Anyway LOVE (the danish) liquorice as much as I love chocolate.
By the way, I think U should put K. Murph on the show again, she is a darling.
