French Wine Society Blind Tasting




1. Ch. Talbot Caillous Blanc 07
2. Domaine Alain Normand Macon La Roche Vineuse 08
3. Domaine Des Bertaiers Pouilly Fume 08
4. Jean Luc Colombo CDRV-Cairanne 05
5. Potel-Aviron Moulin-a-Vent Vielles Vignes 08

This was an incredibly difficult exercise. If my notes were correct, I got 3 out of 5 regions and varietals correct, and Jill did the same only for different wines. These were, in retrospect, entirely typical wines for the regions and varietals. I guess we need to do more homework.

My plan is to do relatively individual posts on each of the sessions from the meetings, there is a lot more to follow. I will include a number of photos from the meeting and from our travels.
