Our latest meeting was at Val Westalls on the
evening of Monday 19th August.
There were 7 members present, apologies were
received from the other three.
Our fist wine was a red French Burgandy- Pinot Noir
Grape- medium bodied.
the average mark out of 10 was 6 1/2 and it cost
£7.18.
some comments were that it was sharp,strong tarty
and heavy, tasting of blackcurrant with a clean smell.
some members thought it might have come from
Germany or Australia. one member thought that after tasting there was a cherry
hint.

Our second wine was a Merno from New Zealand-
costing £10.00
Young Brains main comment was "I like it"...fine
..it could therefore have been a very short meeting.
comments thought it was a bright healthy wine..bit
sharp/tarty at times- the flavour lasting whilst one member thought it was
Italian, but Michael for his
sins thought that it was "Bulgarian"
It was a very good socially based evening and our
thanks to Val for hosting it and providing a good selection of cheese and
biscuits.
Our next meeting will be on Monday 16th September
at Kathies.
