This week, I am in town for the International Wine Challenge, tasting about 100 wines a day blind (as in the bottles are covered up, rather than me tasting them with my eyes closed). I’m tasting the wines with a panel of experts to unearth this year’s gold, silver and bronze medal wines. Results will be announced in May and I will duly give you the nod on the best ones when the winners are announced.
So, although I am tasting 100s of wines this week, I’m not actually drinking any. The only thing I can face after a full day’s tasting is a cup of tea.
Back next week with some recommendations.

Ooh I shall look forward to your recommendations.
You see I'd have thought that was a great job until mentioned the last bit – presumably there is too much of a good thing!
Must be great fun – even if you get sick of the taste of wine by the end of the day. Looking forward to hearing your favourites!
VB – hoping for some Catalans!
Muddling – it would seem so. Palate cleansing ales are next best thing.
NVG – it really is, doesn't feel like work sometimes!
Sounds good to me. Although I don't think I could spit it out in public. Can we have some recommendations for some nice Spanish reds please:) Also, can I just ask how can I get a job like yours?
MD – will do some nice Spanish reds next week just for you. Re. how to get a job like mine? Lucky timing!
It does sound like a fun job, especially when compared to other peoples jobs – plumber anyone?
Had a nice Tesco Soave last night…it's good to be home 🙂
Vinogirl – oh, you're home! Hoping you are having a lovely time x
