Worth the wait! Perfect foil for the wines, brought out more body in them.
Fascinating to taste three such different expressions of the Chardonnay grape - I think we were all surprised that the Antinori was the plushest of the lot. This was a really good flight.
I can taste these even now - perfect, and matched the wines excellently.
This was a really good flight - nicely put together.
The food was excellent - the portions of dauphinois served between two were a lovely touch.
Fascinating flight of entirely different expressions of Syrah. The Cayuse in particular was a revelation - amazing stuff, and thoroughly enjoyed my continuing education in Australian wine.
sadly i had to leave before pud, but the wine was spot on :-)
Wonderful lunch with superb food and service from La T. The wines though - I have to admit, I had not been super excited about this line up on paper, but I was wrong. All three flights were both educational and thoroughly pleasurable, we didn't have a single weak wine and the food matched perfectly.
Brilliant job, huge thanks to Don for organising, I imagine that these free for all events are even more challenging than the regular ones.

Standard. This just continues to show well. Good acidity but some lovely body to back it up. Fitting start to proceedings.
