The great blind tasting was great fun!. Of course with anything like a blind tasting ones competitive spirit comes out so I was very focused for the evening – this was serious. I think I’ve seen other blind tastings on tv and people always end up looking like tools. One I saw involved the participants also being blindfolded and a couple couldn’t even pick between whites versus red – oh the shame.
But the RWW blind tasting was very professionally done. You can all see the results from Darren so I won’t go into them but as far as the wines go we were very pleased to add another winner to RWW in the Casillero Diablo bad boy. Funnily enough Sarah & I then went and bought half a dozen we were so impressed. We had one the other night with dinner and it wasn’t quite as obviously good as we remembered from wednesday. I actually think it was because of the piss weak Pinot we had before hand at RWW that the Diablo tasted soo much better.
Still a very good drop though.
We have a cunning plan for next RWW so stay tuned!
