French Wine Tasting

This week is "la semaine du goût" (the week of taste)
Alliance Francaise KL organised a series of activities about French cuisine....
French wines tasting was one of them.....
with a wine wholesaler--Cave and Cellar

it was on Thursday.....6pm at AFKL....
the French institute where I learn my French....=)
nothing is free in this world....we had to pay RM10 to join the event....



3 types of wine were served...
supposed to be 4...but they cancelled one....
yes....u guess it...the most expensive one....

everyone was served with some snack to go with the wines....

there were some grapes...

slices of baguette with 2 types of topping: slices of tomato & cheese....onion & grated cheese....

started with the Côtes de Provence Rose AOC

the pinkish wine.....

it was light and fresh....fruity... I like it.... =)

hardly find any rosé wine at hypermarkets here...

I had 2 glasses of rosé wine...hehe....

this was drunk half....=)

then served the Beaujolais Villages AOC

the red wine...

*no picture for this*

the colour was red-ruby......

this was light as well.....

it's quite young....not bad.....

the last one.....Médoc AOC

red wine too....but the red was more intense than Beaujolais Villages

it was full-bodied and intensed and not very tart....

I don't like the wines that are very acidic.....

this was quite good as well.....=)

I'm not any wine expert.....couldn't taste the specific flavor of the wines....

just my personal preference...

my favourite one was still the pinkish wine....=)

looked at the price......RM56.....

not very expensive.....

so I bought one bottle.....hehe.....

the wine tasting ended at 8pm.....

after that......went to The Mist for YeongJian's birthday.....

ended my night/morning at 3am.....

exhausted...... (+_+)

a beautiful language I wanted to learn since form 5.....
have been searching for a language center that offer french course for very long time....
finally found this place....Alliance Fraicaise... at Lorong Gurney, KL

signed up for the semi-intensive class....
every Wednesday and Friday....930am--1pm

the jam is terrible.....><" I mean the traffic jam on the way to KL in the morning..... I listened a lot to the traffic report on radio about the slow traffic in KL..... but it's none of my business before last Wednesday..... now I finally experienced it on last Wednesday..... leave my house at 745am and reached the center after 1 hour the journey is actually only take 25min...... average speed was 20km/hr I can go attend class in another branch at Jalan Telawi, Bangsar...... but there will be another problem.....parking..... despite the terrible morning jam.....I still love the interesting french class.... I can get up from bed once my alarm rings..... no matter how tired and sleepy I am..... one more thing added to my favourite list.... my favourite day --> Wednesday and Friday.....^^

bonne journee...
