July 2011 Meeting - Flagship Wines

The evening was presented by Julia Jenkins of Flagship wines, St Albans - www.flagshipwines.co.uk
A variety of New Zealand wines, all around the £10 -£15 per bottle mark, so they should have been good, and they were!
In the whites we had 4 different grape varieties - a Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and a Gewurtztraminer.
A single rose was tasted - a malbec/merlot blend, followed by 3 reds - a Pinot Noir, a Merlot/Malbec blend and a £25 Shiraz to finish.
A good evening was had, with about 30 members turning up, and several took up the opportunity to buy some wine off Julia at a 10% discount.
