In blind tastings with Somms, I've poured my Estate Pinot Noir and heard confident guesses Burgundy, but if they know its a Colorado wine ahead of time, they dismiss it.

If professionals can't escape their bias, can you?

If you've never done a blind tasting, try it this weekend.

Need more visually impaired somms

Unsure if biased but all the wine in my house came from you so....

Ahead of the curve

Still have that hand signed 23 pinot in the cellar. Something special when i look and see no label

All the wine in my house is Peony Lane except one bottle of mead my friend made. Maybe I will do a wine tasting between the Malbec, Syrah and the Estate Pinot. The only problem is I like them all and if I pick a favorite they might get their feelings hurt.

A man of class and culture, I see

I stand corrected. Feelings will have to be hurt. The Malbec and Syrah are good but the Estate Pinot is my favorite by far.

I feel the same way

They should appreciate the terroir
