Today, Godfrey Spence was again the guest. It is a pleasure that with his experience, this new concept should be of such great interest.
With Sparkling waters we tried:
Rueda, Herederos del Marqués de Riscal 2007 Rueda, Spain (Verdejo grape)
Rias Baixas O Rosal, Valmiñor 2007 Galiçia, Spain (Albariño grape)
Nuragus di Cagliari “Pedraia”, Cantina Santadi 2007 Sardinia, Italy (Nuragus grape)
Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc, Domaine de la Janasse 2007 Rhône Valley, France (50% Grenache, 25% Roussanne, 25% Clairette)
The Nuragus proved a wonderful wine, whose prominent characters made it difficult to find a water which 'enhanced' it. Having observed this though, there were waters that harmed the character too, which demonstrates the value of a 0-20 system of scoring as relevant when appreciating wines in a dining environment.
