Hair Of A Different Dog
Yeah, we know what you’re saying. “But, Wine.Woot, breakfast is for Mimosas and Bloody Marys!” Well, dear reader, you can trust that Peter Wellington has thrown back a few in his time, and with today’s offering… look, we don’t want to speak for him, but maybe he’d agree that it’s time you branch out! You’re too predictable! So throw that bubbly back in the cooler and serve breakfast guests a four pack of Wellington Estate and England Crest Syrahs.
First up: the 2007 Vintage Estate. And what do we have here? Why, only fresh fruit and a bacony Syrah signature! Imagine the caramel, the citrus peel, the aromas of blueberries and black raspberry wafting out of the nose. Sounds like the kind of pancakes you want in your kitchen, don’t it? Or maybe you can find it a home next to some yummy sausage and onion frittata?
Or what about the 2007 England Crest Syrah? Notes of coffee and cinnamon and caramel with those fine blackberry aromas again. Maybe it’s not a drink you could wake up to every day, but imagine a glass with a delicious warm ham biscuit, or maybe a maple-bacon waffle. Yeah, you’re nodding now. Look at the possibilities that suddenly open to you when breakfast becomes a valid drinking time!
Sure, the Wellington Estate and England Crest Syrah four pack will be equally fine for later in the day, but will your friends stick around if you tell them Oh, we’re not drinking until three in the afternoon, sorry? Maybe your real friends will, but you don’t need to impress your real friends. You need to impress your acquaintances and your hangers-on! Show those fair-weather types you’re still on top by proving you can be daring AND classy. Bust out the Wellington Estate and England Crest Syrah and make your breakfast the very latest see-and-be-seen.
Or you can drink it sometime after noon, if you insist on being conventional. We can’t force your mind open.
