Roussillon Dessert Trophy Posted by Andrew Barrow in News and Comments, 2:03pm 01/10/2007. Off to London in awhile to attend the Wines of Roussillon Dessert Trophy Awards.
Rumor has it that one of our wines (Maury Solera 1928 no. 885 les Vignerons de Maury) is in the short-list for an award, so with crossed fingers I am off to the Arts Club in Dover Street.
Now I will admit that I am yet to try the Maury so have no idea how it will stand up to the competition. Not even sure who the competition is to be truthful!
UPDATE: Looks like we were slightly mis-informed. The competition was for a pairing of Roussillon dessert wine with a dish prepared by a restaurant chef. Our wine was there for tasting but wasn't used in a pairing. It did give me the opportunity to have a quick slurp - and an amazing wine it is too, stunning in fact. An amazing wine that could be sipped on its own, with a selection of nuts or chocolate, a quality piece of blue cheese or a treacle tart. ^ Back to top
