WINE TASTING GUY | TUESDAY, APRIL 15, 2008 "Today's Bordeaux" tasting event The 2003 Chateau Lamourette Sauternes made from 90% semillon, 6% Muscadelle & 4% Sauvignon Blanc was quite pleasant. I attended this event for the second year in a row at The Altman Building in NY city. The event features 100+ (they say 100, but I'm told it is closer to 110) wines from Bordeaux at reasonable (sub $30) prices. MORE >> -
