Speaking of Great Food and Wine Matches
Denyse, Alyce and I will be dining with Emmanuel Houillon and Pierre Overnoy tomorrow afternoon.

We will be enjoying one of the most sublime food/wine matches imaginable. Great Comté and great VIn Jaune.

I don't think this matching is feasible in America. All great wine lovers in America ought to travel to the Jura to experience this wonderful pairing.

Be on the lookout for the next issue of The Art of Eating, my favorite little, private food/wine journal. There's been a serious of brilliant articles this year in this magazine and the next issue will feature an exploration through the Jura by Ed Behr, who came all the way to the Jura to eat Comté and drink Vin Jaune.

It is reassuring to know there are still journalists out there with sound priorities.

Joe:

I just want to cangratulte you for you fine work on this blog. It is so much better than VIncent Frick's blog.

There are lots of rumors about Frick being anti sematic.

You know what they say, where theree is smoke there is fire

Peter:

I will not tolerate rumor mongering on this site. I don't know Vincent personally, but I have no reason to accuse him of anti-semitism. As far as I know, Vincent has been a good friend to the Jewish people.

Peter: please go back to wherever you came from.

Hi Joe
We drank a bottle of Nusserhof Blatterle last night with a nice fresh cucumber salad made with a little white wine vinegar and Walla Walla sweet onions. It was a very fine match as well. Do you have Walla Walla sweet onions in France?

Vincent is a good guy without any trace of anti-semitism. Peter is dead wrong on this.

There are a few gardeners who have planted French radish seeds in New York. Though I haven't tasted the results, I don't doubt that they are delicious. I just don't think they will duplicate your radishes from the summer. It's a matter of terrior.

What's the black diamond with a question mark after "Comt" /Comt�/, or does no one else see it?

Comte with the Puff man's Vin Jaune was my first experience with a wine and cheese pairing that I would describe as sublime.

And then what I meant to say after that was lost completely...What he said.
