Made a peach cobbler without self-rising flour as the recipe called for.
Used all purpose and baking powder, no salt added!
Just returned from Jax. My daughter requested an old fashion Sunday meal while there.
Knowing it is the Labor Day weekend, we had hamburgers, roasted asparagus and a Feta cheese salad. We finished off her Calem 1996 Vintage Porto.
Did you know, once opened, Port wine must be drank within the 48 hours?
The cobbler turned out fine. To go along, we opened a Sayanca Malbec 2015. Full of berries, vanilla, spices with a citrus note.
This was a low price Aldi selection. I was more interested in the Argentina signature grape, still with a lot of demand. You can't go to a party or event and not find a Malbec being served. One reason the supply is still strong.
Other choices I am looking for: a Trevento 2012 Golden Reserve Malbec. Steven Racine drunk with his prime rib. Also, a Chateau du Cedre 2012 Cahors.

Today, went for a tried and true Malbec. Los Andcos, a Mendoza, Argentina 2015. Argentina is best known for its Malbec. Because of its climate, it offers the best geographic conditions. The color is a dark opaque cherry red. The nose is a blackberry, ripe cherry, toasty vanilla with a hint of pepper.
This is a medium bodied, dry red wine with rich fruit flavors.The finish is full but fades before long.
