Ann invited me to join her tonight for a "Blindside Tasting" at a local wine shop and it was an enjoyable experience. We tasted nine wines; all the same varietal. We had to rate each wine and at the end, determine the grape. They turned out to all be Merlot and they originated from Washington, California, Italy, and Greece. Prices ranged from $12 to $60 a bottle and the group of twelve did a good job finding the three best (and most expensive) wines. We chose one from Washington, one from Italy and one from California.
It was a fun way to spend a rainy evening and a chance to meet interesting people who all enjoy learning about wine.
