It’s the 8th Annual Churchill Cellars Portfolio Tasting, this year it was being held at the St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts on Front Street (in Toronto); eight tables on two floors. I guess that’s the way they make sure you don’t drink too much – if you fall down the stairs you have to surrender your keys and take a cab home (not the wine the car).
Started out with a nice Segura Viudas Brut Reserva Cava to freshen and wake up the palate … it was a little too cold to get the full effect of the fruit, though it was definitely crisp and fizzy. It did the job it set out to do – my palate was ready for whatever came next.
The Group of 7 … (find out which 7 wines were in my hit parade)
