Session 3 - Whites with Still


Roberto and Nicolas had been travelling for a while, most notably having been invited on a week long tour of the vineyards of Chile - kindly invited by the 'Wines of Chile' association. The returned marvelling at the variety of terrain and the quality of wines.

Roberto's selection for today is:

  • Pacherenc du Vic Bilh Sec, Domaine Berthoumieu, South West France, 2007
  • Empreinte du Temps, Domaine Ferrer-Ribiere, Roussillon, 2006 - 82yrs old wine, Grenache Blanc
  • Semillon, Knappstein Lenswood Vineyards, Adelaide Hills, South Australia, 2000
  • Muscat d'Alsace "Prestige", Cave de Ribeauville, Alsace, 2005 (Muscat Blanc)
At this stage, we are starting to develop more specific taste categorisations for the way in which the waters match the wines. We are tasting that there are waters which actually enhance the taste of the wines.
