The Queen took a flagon of sweet plum wine from a passing servant girl and filled Sansa’s cup. “Drink,” she commanded coldly. “Perhaps it will give you courage to deal with truth for a change.” (II: 621)
Sweet Plum Wine
Our thoughts:
Your first sip of this wine will make you feel like you’ve been punched in the face by a plum, in a good way. The first sensation is of biting through the skin of a plum, a little coarse, then a burst of flavor. There then follows a quick whirl of tart-sweet-tart, followed by a lingering taste of pure dark plum. It feels as though it should be a heavy wine, but is surprisingly light, and would be perfect for summer picnics.
For our plum wine, we selected a local variety from Nashoba Vineyards. Highly recommended!
Being a home wine maker, I must agree…..Plum wine is great.
Wow. I dont know where you got this idea and all, but this blog is so amazing! I am completely fascinated at where you’ve taken my favorite fantasy series and itching to try out some of these recipes! :)
Just wow. <3
I would also suggest umeshu. It’s a Japanese variant of plum wine. Veeeeeery good.
Just purchased your book through one of my book clubs, Science Fiction. Got the blog address through them. This is so wonderful and very, very, clever. I would love to be there on the campout you are going to. Of course I am a big fan of the books and HBO series and now a big fan of yours. I will add this to my Favs. You girls GO…Love everything about what you have done!!!
