Novice Wine Tasting Party

Thank you, everyone, for your help!

We really had a wonderful evening. My uncle is fairly knowledgeable about wines, so he kind of gave a running commentary about what we were tasting. He also usurped pouring responsibilities. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img]

Some of the guests took turns teasing my mother for her choice of beverage. She generally prefers white wines and blushes, and she thinks reds are too bitter. She took a beautiful Cabernet and mixed it with lime-flavored sparking water and ice. Well, as long as she was happy, right?

The real treat of the night was the Tomasi Valpolicella Classico Superiore. I'd read about it on this board and picked up a bottle for the tasting. It was a definate favorite in our little group. I'll definately get another bottle for home, since we enjoyed it so much and it was so cheap ($12).

Thanks, again!
