Santa, PLEASE? It’s a wino’s dream!! Le Nez Du Vin

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008 | Wine Stories | No Comments

See this? This is my Christmas wish - 54 Wine Aroma - Master Kit by Le Nez Du Vin

and only at a low, low price of $399 it could be mine……..or it could be in my stocking!! For those of you out there wondering what to get the wino that has everything, I bet you anything they DON’T have this and they would LOVE IT!! LOOK: “The Master Kit is a required course material at many of the great enology schools.”

(Enology = study of all aspects of wine and winemaking, in case you were wondering.)

I was intrigued by Epicurious.com’s gift guide for the various types of foodies today and found this. I mean, how can you not be impressed?

FEATURES:
- 54 Aroma Vials
- 54 Illustrated Explanatory Cards
- The Le Nez du Vin Instructional Book
- Presented In A Beautiful Cloth-Bound Case

I will be gladly accepting gifts between 12/22 and 12/26 this year…….. just sayin!! Alright, it’s a little steep, but I was poking around the rest of Wine Aroma’s website, and there is great stuff there for all the little winos in your circle. I know that if I knew ALL the smells and tastes on 1 wine, I’d probably drive Kim nuts…..hehehe. (Kim, you love it!) I can dream, can’t I?

Happy Holidays Everyone!!
