Tell us, Jim, apart from all that, will there also be a "normal" wine?
What is interesting - at first sight of course - the oddity or the taste of things?
And here is a promotional message from me too....
Doug has kindly invited me to sell/sign the Jura Wine book at the Real Wine Fair. There will be a 10% promo discount there too.
And he has arranged some seminars including one by me on the trade day Monday afternoon. See http://therealwinefair.com/seminars-masterclasses/
Luc. Having attended previous editions There will be good and very drinkable wines to taste.
Jim, you know me, never short of a little bit of provocation. I don't doubt any second there will PLENTY of good wines. I for one, stopped thinking a long time ago that "odd" wines were no good. Only, the announcement focuses on the "deviant" side of the exhibits in the first place. This is my main concern : being different, rather than outstanding, becomes the teasing, the point of appeal.
Different - comme toi...!
