Our December tasting was done differently than normal.

We did not rank the wines one through six. Instead, we each had the list
of each wine that was here and what region of France they were from.

Each taster tried to determine which wine was which. So, for the listing this month,
we will post the wines as they were poured, A through F.

Wine "D" was, unfortunately corked, so we will
replace that bottle and taste it again in the future.
