Tasting Notes:

2008 kicked off with a wonderful "Pairing" tasting, which was hosted by Rosalind Dworkin, at the beautiful home of Judy and Leon Smith.  Members each prepared and brought a dish, paired with their favorite wine match, for said dish.  This was an educational--not to mention delicious--event.  A good time was had by all.

If you have taken notes at a recent tasting, please forward to the editor,  Dina.  I will be adding these to the appropriate page, for other wine enthusiasts and/ or members to reference.

Notes from the May Tasting--contributed by: Joe and Kim Tecca:

Here are the final results for the ranking of the Piemonte Wines from the AWS Tasting on May 12. Tasters were asked to rate the top 3 wines sampled that day. The same scoring system used last year with the Sangiovese tasting; 3 pts for a 1st place vote, 2 for 2nd and 1 for 3rd was used.  Unfortunately, it appears the instructions were not as clear as they should have been and a few of the ballots were returned with all 11 wines ranked 1, 2 or 3.  Those ballots were not used in the rankings.  For a complete list, please visit:  Wine Rankings Piedmonte Tasting
