Cour-Cheverny is high-acid wine, even by Loire Valley acid freak standards. Is there room for another blind tasting panel? Just mute.

Dressner did cut a few corners this year, for example by refusing to hire staff for the tables and thereby forcing wine makers from small villages scattered throughout the Loire Valley to travel all the way to NYC to pour the wines themselves. loved the 2005, not as much the 2006, never saw the 2007, and now we have the 2008.
