February 23, 2003 - 8 Tasters
What a day for a tasting! A major winter storm caused attendance to fall to 8 hardy and local tasters - Barb and Larry Paterson, Art Branch, Ken Maley, Garry Humphreys, Byron Luther (who made it from Bobcaygeon to Peterborough!!!), Terry McCall and Manfred Hecke. To bulk out the tasting amateur wines were donated to make it affordable... (this tasting could easily be subtitled "How the little fat wino got his comeuppance at last!!!)
