I always enjoy tasting wines side by side, learning by comparing them. Last night I had the distinct pleasure of tasting three Burgundies, one white and two red. had to rely on my "tasting memory" to try to understand the white wine, but comparing the reds offered me some clear insights about red wine in Burgundy.

And I think it's fair to say that wine geeks know about Friuli whites. am a wine geek who does not know about Friuli whites.
