I'm a bad, bad founder of Wine Blogging Wednesday. Because the LENNDEVOURS household was plagued by a stomach virus last week, we weren't able to pitch in with our contribution for WBW #55.
But, I wanted to direct you over to host Remy Charest's roundup for those who did take part in one of the better themes we've had in a while: North vs. South. Remy asked participants to compare wines made from the same grape, but from different regions.
I had planned to taste riesling from the Finger Lakes, Long Island and Chile and also cabernet franc from the same regions. It would have been a fun comparision and I may still do it as a post-WBW endeavor.
Thanks for the great theme, Remy and sorry that I couldn't join the fray.
And keep an eye out for the announcement for WBW #56. It's going to be another interesting one that, I hope, will surprise some people.
Don't be so hard on yourself, Lenn. Even New York wine isn't that attractive when you have the stomach flu...
Thanks for the kind words. It was great fun. I might even be crazy enough to want to do it again!
