Which Early 70's British Rock Band Are You?

Another lovely evening with [livejournal.com profile] sweh, wherein we explored the many functions of a studded leather belt. Also I had saved up my carbs and drank a lot of wonderful white wine, to wit a Cuvee Renaissance Cour-Cheverny 2000 Vendanges Manuelles. (I am a French wine luser, so I am not clear on what part of that label is what, except that Cour-Cheverny is the appellation.) The guy at the wine store said it wasn't a chenin blanc, but some grape varietal starting with R that I don't remember. Tasted not dissimilar, though. Two thumbs up.

I too am a French-wine-luser, but as I understand it 'cuvee' is also meaningful. The 'cuvee' variants of the champagne I bought last time I was out at Domaine Chandon was the pink one.

(Not very helpful, eh?)

Those wacky French labels

The way the label was, it actually looked like "Cuvee Renaissance" might be the winery name--it was at the very top in the border, outside the main field where they have all the appellation stuff &c. But who the heck knows? (Answer: Mr. Internet, of course, and I will search if I get time today.)
