Christi, Alex & The Master Of The World! (Kit)

We promised & promised- and now we deliver! We finally did it- A blind tasting where neither of us know what the wine is! Christi & Alex sit down with Kit 115A from Master The World, a company based in San Mateo, California,  that sells wine tasting kits. This kit has 6 wines in it, 3 white and 3 red -all packaged with labels over the labels, so the tasting is completely  "blind" unless you choose otherwise! As part of the service, Master The World has several On-Line Tasting Grids that you can work through, and in the end have the wine revealed to you. All wines have been "road-tested" by three Master Sommeliers, and their notes are laid out next to your selections - so you can compare your experience to theirs, flavor by flavor! And all of this without the tension of a formal testing environment!So the pressure is on, can the CERTIFIED SOMM get the wine right? Or has he been B.S.-ing us all along?

He avoid over maturity and prefers to ferment only half the cuvée in neutral French oak barrels.
