It was Weston’s hosting today for the Wednesday Wine Committee and probably the most informative lunch to date. Though everything was tasted “blind” as usual, we were all given a list of grapes to choose from for the whites and the reds, since they were all meant to be very similar.
Given that the third white seemed to be the easiest to choose (Albariño), I kept going back and forth between this and the first white. In the end, his had a more full body feel to it along with some sulfur/petrol notes. Others said white pepper. ✔️
