Pablo Sanz conducted a wine tasting specializing in decent wines that sell for less than $15 per bottle. Pablo was born and raised in Europe, so he has extensive experience drinking wine going back to his childhod. He handed out sheets with the names of each of the wines on it, with spaces to enter ratings and perceived cost. At the end, Pablo told us the actual cost of each wine and in many cases we were surprised with how inexpensive they were. He advocated sampling different wines and going with whatever you like. He never said that any wine was good or bad, but just shared what he enjoyed. All the wines we tasted were puchased from Varmax, Pablo’s favorite wine shop in Portchester. He also brought some amazing cheeses and baguettes from a shop in Larchmont. Following are the wines we tasted:
2005 Louis M. Martini – Cabernet Sauvignon
2005 J. Lohr – Cabernet Sauvignon
2005 Redwood – Zinfandel
2005 Bogle – Zinfandel
2005 Rosenblum – Syrah
2007 Montes – Pinot Noir
Colosi – Sicilia
Salice Salentino – Taurino

This was a nice presentation and I really enjoyed all the wines – some which will be making their way into my house shortly!
Pablo did a great job. So when is the BBQ at his house this summer?
