\"IMG_8651\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ron put together a spectacular collection of wines from his cellar. This is an area we haven’t previously focused an entire event on, and it was\u00a0extremely educational.<\/p>\n

All the wines showed extremely well, and each was distinctly unique. Each flight also showed the characteristics of its region.<\/p>\n

Because of the overall high quality of the wines, the popularity votes were extremely close, and in one case all three wines exactly tied after adding up first and second place votes. That has never happened before.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0most popular flights, in order, were:<\/p>\n

Cote Rotie
\nHermitage
\nWhite CDP
\nCornas<\/p>\n

A few wines, such as the Cornas, would have been even better if we’d been able to give them more air, as they were still improving when we had to dump them.<\/p>\n

Wines brought by members added another 15 bottles, so the\u00a0evening’s total was thirty wines!<\/p>\n
