Thursday 25th February

A nice bottle of wine.I have a discrete word about register duty in the ear of Lily’s teacher, whilst my daughter unwraps herself from her Hello Kitty scarf, Hello Kitty bobble hat and Hello Kitty boots. I dread the day when she comes home with a Hello Kitty tattoo. I spend the entire day strapped to the Mac, writing an article on last year’s Louis Jadot anniversary dinner, trying to think up ways of expressing the sensory experience of an 1898 Montrachet (the article will appear on Wine-Journal on eRP in a few days.)

Lily, dressed in her Hello Kitty uniform, returns at 3.00pm, elated having been chosen to take the register to the school secretary. I guess you could say that the elation of tasting an 1898 Montrachet is similar to the first time your teacher asks you to take the register in front of the class.

In the evening, a lovely Pinotage. No oxymoron…a lovely Pinotage!
