Well, I'm not sure I would have done as well as you at this one! You actually
nailed the main grape in everything but the Gewurzs (which did surprise me, as
the ZH gewurzs seem to be very distinctively Gew. to me, but its not surprise
you thought a ZH regular wine might be VT). That's not so bad. Some of the
other "mistakes" are pretty reasonable- Ridge has a very European style,
Girardin wines (which I often like) are really not in a classic Burgundian
style, etc. Personally, I think you did quite well, better than I usually do at
doubleblind. I do fairly well at single blind usually (I mean if we know what
the wines are, just not which is which, then I'm a good guesser).

Sounds like the Catena is worth looking for. Actually the ZH too (though I
swore I wasn't buying anymore).

Best,

Dale
