Eric Soloman (famed importer) was in town today delivering a lecture and sampling his French and Spanish catalog at the Pan Pacific Hotel. Together we sampled:

• 16 French Wines
• 23 Spanish Wines
• 9 Assorted Rose Wines

Unfortunately the rosè we were tasting was the 2010 vintage, but it gave us a good idea of what to expect from the 2011 vintage that we will be stocking.

If the wine is in our store, we have tasted and approved it.
