TASTING RESULTS
Although we had a small turn-out, nearly everyone who came bought wine, which, of course, was the objective of the tasting!
The big hit was the MASSI FILLI 2009 BARBERA, COLLI TORTONESE, PIEMONTE at $14.00 We sold-out and took orders. We have more arriving today or tomorrow.
Second best seller was the ZELLERBACH 2009 SAUVIGNON BLANC from CALIFORNIA at $10.00 To me, this just tastes like a NZ wine from MARLBOROUGH. Stunning value! We have some in stock.
One bottle behind in sales was the ALICE ROSÉ BRUT from the PROSECCO region of Italy. It seems expensive at $20.00, but people loved it. We have some in stock.
The disappointment in terms of sales was the VITAE SPRINGS 2008 PINOT NOIR – maybe because at $25.00 it was the most expensive wine in the tasting. Because of peoples’ reaction we did not bring any into the shop, but could special order it.
Cheers,
Mick
