Baltic State, Caucasus wines
Just back from Vilnius, Lithuania, a cold week in the Baltic state - saw my first snow this year, as soon as we walked of the 'plane!.
Lithuanian food is primarily pork and potato based, and as a half-Hungarian I enjoyed every minute of it - the Zeppelins (cepelinai) are to die for!
Picked up some Georgian wine in a local supermarket, not seen any of those before in the UK.
Wines tried.
Georgian Valleys 2005 Alaznis Valley Red. (Saperavi & Rkatsiteli, Tbilvino)
Wines brought home.

South Africa next, Johannesburg (again) for a week, should be able to try a few different bottles over there, and it's summertime too!
