Demonstration 1 - In wine there is the truth...

...as the Latin saying tells us. But apart from the truth it is also lovely to find a great wine. Thus, today we plunged into the next level of the wine tasting.

After a short general introduction, we were given a few wines to taste - couple of whites and then some reds, finishing with a muscat sweet wine.

Again, I was amazed how differently a wine can taste with food, how much something a simple as an almond can help develop the aromas. Maybe that is why the French have most of their wine with their meals and not on its own.

Apparently there are a lot more lectures on wine this term. Well, bring it on! I am ready for "the truth"!
