Newport Wine Fest

Group got together to discuss which wines to enter this year into the Newport Wine Fest. Decided on the 05 Williamson Reserve Cab and the 05 Malbec. The reserve cab is our best chance at a Gold--it's only tiny fault is a slight oxidation that makes the color more brownish. The 05 Malbec was quite tasty and we hope the varietal's recent popularity and likely lack of competition at the competition will apeal to the judges.

We checked bottles for quality before submitting, combining 2 bottles to ensure clarity. Poured them through a coffee filter to ensure no dregs made it in.
