May 8 2010: The Sunday Times of the UK has a ‘liquid hunch’ today, and recommends the Rives-Blanques Blanquette de Limoux

The leading Sunday newspaper in the United Kingdom, the Sunday Times, today recommended the Rives-Blanques Blanquette de Limoux in its ‘Style’ supplement.

Light, fragrant and sunny, they said, ideal for weddings.

The Wine for The Wedding of William and Kate was a Pol Roger champagne, wrote Bob Tyrer in his On the Bottle column.   « Wedding wine should be more flighty » he said.  (He himself had a  rosé frizant from Daumas Gassac poured at this own wedding.)

As an alternative, he recommended the Rives-Blanques Blanquette de LIimoux, or the Cienna Rosso from Brown Brown Brothers.
