A cracking line-up, a great new venue, engaging introductions from some of the UK's best wine writers. But the wines just didn't show. I was recovering from a cold and thought that was to blame, but from conversations afterwards it seems that others were equally underwhelmed. Some blamed the glasses - Zalto dessert glasses. I got an acrid whiff on several and think it more likely that it was dishwasher tablets to blame rather than the shape of the glass.

En magnum. Base 09. Light, sharp, quite elegant, delicate
[It is possible the glasses were tainted]

Powerful, some caramel on the nose, not much on the palate. Still very tight.
