Tasting at the Guard House Tonight
Great event that had value. Tonight was wines of the northwestern US.
The distributors had some nice white wines, particularly a reisling and a wild blend, both of which had great white flowers, acid, and mineral.
The best of the tasting was the Waterbrook Reserve Merlot. This was great- blue fruits, a bit of vanilla, soft tannins and just the right amount of acid. This has the balance and body to age for a bit.
Bottom line- looked good, smelled good, tasted good, and I liked it all at a good price point via the PA shops.
Have at it.
