On the Road with the Grape Guy
On the Road with the Grape Guy is a on-going feature that follows me from event to event ... I post my thoughts, feelings and reviews of what happened and what I tasted ... basically it is here that I review the events I attend and the things that thrilled me.
Report from - The Portugal A9 Lunch and Tasting ... June 10, 2010

A9 is a group that represents 27 associated wineries, more than 15,200 wine producers or about 20% of Portuguese production. They produce an average of about 110 million liters per year (but if you read the brochure is says “110 million litters” – so I am not sure if they make wine or do animal husbandry, I’ll assume the wine for now). Lunch was served at C5 restaurant, which is located at the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum) in Toronto. The acoustics were lousy so what I gleaned the group I got from my press pack (see above). 7 wines were served with a 4 course lunch, which included reception hors d’oeuvres and dessert. Just for fun I took some pictures of lunch:
