ACWC 2017 - Day 1 wines

15 Dec 2018

 

(June 6, 2017) ... I always take a number of bottles to the judging of the All Canadian Wine Championships, and usually stuff that is non-Canadian, just for a change of pace. Today's offerings were Bordeaux  and Washington:Ch. Grand Maison

Chateau Grand Maison 2006 Cuvee Speciale Cotes de Bourg - Bordeaux ... A little dusty and chalky but with an element of dried fruit and woodsiness - it sounds old and tired but it was still better than the Washington wine ... a Snoqualmie 2007 Whistle Stop Red Cabernet / Merlot ... because it was corked.
