Instead of Cocktails this week Vincent Vee brings Rancio Sec to the Not A Foodie team and gives them a crash course of this incredible, under the radar fortified wine.
Rancio Sec Grenache Noir- Sweeter, more similar to a dessert wine but not overly sweet. Lighter in body and color than the Grenache Blanc
Rancio Sec Grenache Blanc- A dry sherry. Notes of dried spices, and butter fat. A very full bodied wine with great texture
Mike still gave his drink of the week, and it was one Vince turned him onto years ago
