Online Trading

最近在家裡發現很多新的物件沒有多大用途，卻礙在家裡...

然後到EBAY, YAHOO, DCFEVER 看一看，發現這些物品蠻有市場需求，於是放上網在網上買賣.

靈光一閃!~

很想知道在這個金融海潚下，有多少類型的物品還有市場價值，網友仍會主動上網競價投得物品呢?

結果發現，球鞋，鏡頭 是現時最受歡迎的物品啊。 相反， GUCCI 、MUI MUI, 因FASHION 有SEASONAL 限制，很多人很快變心，追求新款，最後SUPPLY 二手的人多，BID 的人少了...

Lafon Rochet 1994

Wine: Chateau Lafon Rochet

Region: Saint Estephe

Controllee: Saint Estephe Controllee

Year: 1994

Grand Cru Classe en 1855

An interesting wine. You never know what's after it...

Colour: Brick Red --> ready to drink~

Tears: Long legs...strong alcohol content and concentration

Sniff: Strong Alcohol, metalico...

Palette: First, metallic, leather...then a bit meaty...

Length: super long length, but at a thin layer

After a while.........

Palette: Metallic flavour is gone, replaced by more meaty taste

Character: after sipping...what is left is a sweet watery palette which is rather like the after taste of drinking bitter tea, interesting~

Conclusion: Suitable for drinking, can pair up with weaker taste food, a good company of red meat.

Price: dunno~~~ coz that's my compensation of dad drinking a pricy white wine without inviting me >.<

Monopoly & Scrabble

Board Games, used to be the foreigners

' games. In Hong Kong's world, it's Mahjong, Poker, Karaoke, Movies, PS3, Wii so on and so forth.

In my perspective, I love board games more as that requires brain power more, though it would be less "noise", it's not only fun, it is also a training on tactics.

This Housewarming & Chinese New Year, I suggest friends & parents to play monopoly & scrabble with me, in which my dad still wins (sigh...) I still see how much words we know and calculation we does throughout all the transactions & mix & match of words.

I need practice more on my brain power still. Where is the online version!!!~

Bungalow Wine Tasting Day

1. Boxer MollyDooker

Have already tried before, from Australia. The greatest thing is on its length. It swirls around ur breath for more than a minute. In fact, it would be better to enjoy alone, than with strong snacks like blue cheese. Would be good company with light soft cheese.

Strong berry flavour, compatitible to french wine. At a reasonable and affordable price of $175. Was chosen as "My favourite" of the day.

2. Alsace Gewurztraminer Moltes

My favourite white wine with hint of flowery yet largely dominated by lychee flavour. A typical character of Gewurztraminer. Almost reaching the sugar level of dessert wine, with a dry finish. Its riesling is not as recommended as Gewurztraminer.

3. Jacob's Creek Riesling

Well, the plastic made wine cock as destroyed everything...We can't finish even 1/4 of the bottle...

4. Yarra Valley De Bortoli

Black Cherry Flavour. Strong alcohol. Lack of fruit flavour. OK company with meat. With $210 price, not that recommended. It is postured to be a Chile wine than an Australian one.

5. La Fleur

Plz, dun tell me u study french. It has nothing to do with flower at all!!!!!!! Total disappointment, when you realize it is recommended by the sales, with it printed as the headline hot product in the pamphlet. Sigh~~~

Chateau d'Issan (Margaux) 2003

Again, this wine tasting is from the leftover on Saturday, and I only drank it on Wed late nite.
Though the taste is not as strong, the aftertaste could stay quite a while, which I presume the original taste would have intensive black berries flavour. The palate is round my tongue and would taste nice even on its own.

Below are from other blog:

Chateau d'Issan (Margaux) 2003: An attractive nose here, even though it carries the warm ripe confit fruit of the vintage. The soft and rounded texture is immediately apparent on the palate, with a rather appealing weight and substance, but it has a level of acidity which is on the low side. And of course there is a big wall of tannins too, leading to a hard finish. Nevertheless it all sits together reasonably well and taken within the context of the vintage I find this to be good. It is just superior to the 1996, tasted alongside. 16+/20

Chateau d'Issan (Margaux) 2003: Ripe and open on the nose, big and expressive with black cherry fruit. Very typical of the vintage. A huge presence of tannin on the palate, although they are quite well coated with fruit and texture. They come to the fore on the finish though. Low acidity, as you might expect, but overall this isn't bad, and approaches a balance that some wines of this vintage find difficult to achieve. 16.5+/20 (November 2006)
