After a fantastic football - and then afternoon barbecues, we addressed ourselves again eight veiled, red candidates who wanted to ascend the throne of the Best Ultra Blind Bottle.
As before, each of the 4 participants, 2 bottles of wine sent into the race. This time we have not seen in the run, which have brought the others. So everyone knew only by his two wines.
I could post the second victory, südfranzösichen again with a wine that is priced compared to many other participants in a real bargain! It is even after the last placed Pinot Noir, the second-cheapest wine on the field!
