Tonight it was Orlik Golden Sliced in the B-C Mirage 1300 accompanied by a Carmenere from Chile by Emeliana - 2008 vintage (carmenere is similar to a merlot grape). This pairing is just okay. The vino is a bit spicy and bitter - neither of which is bringing out the sweetness of the VA in OGS. This bottle would be better shared with a Balkan or robust English or perhaps something with a pinch of perique to accentuate the spice notes I think.
