Anne is the chef & baker extraordinaire who is constantly creating an occasion out of every meal. Angus was brought up in a wine enthusiast's household with strong memories of his father complaining about a bottle of St-Emilion in St-Emilion! "Mais Monsieur....c`est normale pour St-Emilion!!" It really wasn`t! Matching food & wine is what we are all about!!

Well what`s a boy to do, checked all the wine today after "interesting church" this morning (lots went wrong and we ended up doing the prayers at v short notice despite which there was a real sense of the presence of God! Hurray! ). We have too much good wine - in fact about 100 bottles - so have decided to take the "laying down stuff" to France - 12 bottles of 2004 Angus the Bull - (see pic) plus assorted others in preparation for my brothers birthday.
Re the Angus, apart from being my name- it is the best wine to have with steak - a shiraz made by a guy called Hamish McGowan - if you beg, we will serve you an "Anne cooked steak" from our butcher in a little village in N Yorks who has a hook for a hand, with a bottle of 2002 which is now perfect for drinking!
Off to Richer Sounds tomorrow to get some stuff for the HiFi francaise!!
Angus the daddy
