Vintner Dinner with Mario Andretti

[hotwine]

My tasting notes on each of the seven wines listed above are posted under their wine-specific forums.

Dinner last night was most enjoyable, and Mr. Andretti was a gracious and generous host, pressing the flesh with the 70 or so attendees and sharing his experiences in both racing and wine-making. If you get the opportunity to attend a similar event, highly recommend you grab it!

We were particulary impressed with the following of his wines:
Andretti Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley 1999 ($9.99)
Andretti Pinot Noir Napa Valley 1997 ($13.99)
Andretti Chardonnay Napa Valley 1996 ($9.99)
Andretti Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 1995 ($17.49)
Andretti Sangiovese Napa Valley 1995 ($21.99)

Five out of seven ain't bad.
