We had a super high quality Aussie Shiraz in the group yet the most popular wine of the night was a German Riesling - I bet nobody would have predicted that!

I'm pretty sure the Grenache Tempranillo was the #1 wine of the night steve.

I recall at least 4 votes for the Riesling?

I went with the Monthelie myself, I know Seoniad went with the Riesling, and I thought Mike and Vera went with it too.

Hmm, Might have to check with Phil.

I just received a really nice email from Phil thanking us for a great night. He had a really good time and enjoyed the way everyone engaged with both the wines and the concept of the evening.

Is there any interest for another one later in the year - Septemberish?
