Wine Experience

Tonight was my first official wine tasting. Roger and I met up with Rebecca and Candace to get our wine taste on.

Here is Roger taking the first taste:

There were sheets to write a lot of details about each wine down but my palate isn't quite up to par to get a lot of details down. I gave it a star if I liked it or wrote "eh" if I didn't. Technical I know. Rebecca was great about explaining some of the wine tasting basics to us and I finally learned what it means when a wine "has legs"! Tonight was the night of Shiraz and most were really yummy.

The gals:

And Roger demonstrating the "Rog":

I'll give this experience five stars. We followed up the night with a visit to the Three Forks and you can read more about that at Hungry Hungry Veganos. Woztober is shaping up quite well already!

Wine tasting is fun and Uncle Eric and I used to go to the Red Owl in Paulding once a month for the wine tasting with friends and was so much fun. We had forms to fill out per best wine! I'm jealous, that I can't partake with you all in Eugene!
