Testing their palates
A "Wine Call My Bluff" was presented by Leyland Smith when Halifax and District Amateur Wine Circle met at the Maurice Jagger Centre, Halifax. The panel was Sue Bythell, Ian Bythell and Mr Smith, who gave descriptions of the wines and members had to decide which were correct. In the competition for white sweet wine, for the Nellie Veal Trophy, winners were: 1, Malcolm Taylor; 2, Jeanne Garside; 3, Terry Hanson. The judge was Marjorie Oates.
At the Yorkshire Federation Wine and Beer Show at Scarborough, Malcolm Taylor won a first place for novice red dry wine, and was very highly commended for wine with food and white dry concentrate, highly commended for red concentrate and apricot liqueur, and commended for novice white wine. Robert Gear presided.
The next meeting, on Tuesday, July 7, will be "An evening with Malcolm."
