Dear All,

The cost of wines is going up so it looks as though, despite UERSA's contribution to the cost of the church hire, an increase in the fee for the tasting may be unavoidable. One other way of boosting income is to increase the numbers attending, so do remember you can invite a friend along to any tasting for the same price per head.

Best Wishes

John

Report

Wednesday 20th March at Exeter Majestic

We were treated to a superb selection of mainly Californian wines, last night by the Majestic team. The reds were particularly outstanding. We had a real treat with the Orin Swift Palermo (retailing at £45 a bottle as part of a 6 mix) a sumptuous smooth mouth full of cherry and raspberry.

Very many thanks to Paul, James, Nichole and their team for putting the tasting together for us which we hope we can continue on an annual basis.

For those of you who missed the tasting do try the reds, Erath Pinot Noir, Bread and Butter Reserve Cab Sav and Decoy Merlot. Of the whites Duckhorn Chardonnay was my favorite.
