Wines drunk at G8 Summit Meeting
I think they started the meeting with, today my wife just returned pilattes
class looking good. We were having some friends over for a summitt so we only had time for a quicky. Then the other members showed up from the G8 with their concerns on the starving. As a demonstration we gorged ourselves with food and wine...about 18 courses worth. What a bunch of CRAP. For the masses we have rising gas and fuel cost For the leaders to rule over them we have 18 courses paired with wines.

Kind of strange that they list the lunch wines as Chateau Grillet 2005 which cost a minimum of $100 a bottle for a Condrieu yet they don't list the name of the Chambolle Musigny 2005. |

Not that this is a shabby offering, but not as opulent considering the attendees as one was led to believe. And Ian correct me if I am wrong but isn't the 99 Tokay on the young side if they are going for bigbucks, my H.

All of the wines, with the possible exception of the '97 MB, appear too young. Yes, that Tokaji is probably an infant but who knows with the limited information provided? Clearly, the wine wasn't a major focus of that meal. Mark Lipton -- alt.food.wine FAQ: http://winefaq.hostexcellence.com |
