I would toast the Royal couple today with a glass of English wine but I've had English wine and I guarantee Charles and Kate weren't drinking local. No doubt it was French as the Queen's cellar is full of it. I'm toasting them with a glass of Château Lanessan 2005 Delbos-Bouteiller, AOC Haut-Médoc (Bordeaux) which is full of cassis, herbs, sour cherry and fairly soft tannins (at least for a Cabernet Sauvignon based wine.) But, as this is only a toast and it is Friday, I think I shall follow the example of my cousin Jennifer who resides in New Zealand and watched the wedding ceremony with Gin & Tonic in hand remarking to me on FB that it was all rather very British...now if I can just remember where I put the limes...
