Between the Vines: One woman's wine-soaked musings

Tasting three kinds of fresh oysters and three white wines

My son, Steven, and I had a fun evening tasting three white wines and three kinds of fresh oysters (Kumomoto, Effingham, Kusshi) from 1Fish 2Fish in Langley. 

The Cuvée du Haut-Censy Muscadet was my favourite wine with the oysters, while Steven really enjoyed the Silver Chardonnay. The Prospect Winery Sauvignon Blanc was pleasant and worked nicely with the oysters but didn't come in as number one with either of us.

From your left, here are the wines we enjoyed tonight:

1. Cuvée du Haut-Censy Muscadet Sèvre & Maine Sur Lie 2009
2. Mer Soleil Silver Unoaked Chardonnay 2009
3. Ganton & Larsen Prospect Winery Council's Punch Bowl Sauvignon Blanc 2010

Cheers, all!
