My 4th visit to the London International Wine Fair proved to be the best to date. And the last. No 'International' next year and a shorter journey. So that's good. More importantly I hope to be registering as something other than 'student' next year.
The Spanish gig appears to be going ahead and I am looking forward to that.
The revision is going in the right direction, but is there enough time? I find out in 12 days. Stay with me; I need the support.
Have just returned from another very enjoyable day at the IWSC. I have to admit that after 54 fairly high acid and tannic reds, the stunning Prosecco (which one very experienced judge awarded 98 points) was very welcome indeed.
All good stuff, but the final wine of the day was a gold medal winning, Sangiovese-based Vin Santo.
Vermentino may feature on my shopping list soon, too.
If all goes well on 5th June, I Am not sure l will continue to qualify as an associate on the basis of my studies. l hope to get on the list on a more permanent basis.
l have drawn up a revision plan for the remaining five weeks. l May have to avoid the day job.
Next stop LIWF.
Chin chin.
