The fact that a number of us were there three weeks ago would have helped !

Post by **flash_uk** » 13:26 Fri 14 Jul 2017

Yes I would have had no clue without that recent visit. We enjoyed some nice cocktails up there

Right, now to think of a question...

Post by **flash_uk** » 13:27 Fri 14 Jul 2017

On Thursday night I tried a wine for the first time - one I had been keen to sample. What was it? Producer will do, don't need the year.

Alex - you need to sit this one out....you know the answer!

If it was my turn I would be asking about which continent it is from to attempt to narrow the field

...but it isn't my turn.

Glenn E. · Post by **Glenn E.** » 23:03 Tue 18 Jul 2017

Just so that Derek can guess, I'll guess... Tejo?

Old Bridge · Post by **Old Bridge** » 07:32 Wed 19 Jul 2017

Which continent is it from?

Post by **PhilW** » 09:19 Wed 19 Jul 2017

Massandra

Post by **flash_uk** » 13:33 Wed 19 Jul 2017

Not Tejo nor Massandra.

It's from Europe.

Old Bridge · Post by **Old Bridge** » 16:23 Wed 19 Jul 2017

Sloe wine?

No not sloe. Another clue. The wine is a highly regarded name.

Post by **Alex Bridgeman** » 22:20 Wed 19 Jul 2017

Oh for goodness sake! Get on with it.

Is it English?

Old Bridge · Post by **Old Bridge** » 09:51 Thu 20 Jul 2017

Chambertin

haha - you're supposed to be sitting this out! It's not English.

So to summarise, it is a well-known name, from Europe. Not English or French.

So it's not Chambertin (which technically is an appellation rather than a producer).

Is it Portuguese?

The beautiful people of London have been fluttering their eyelashes at me optimistically. Being married, of course I didn’t notice.
