Cabernet Tasting at USC Stanford Football Game 11 October 2010
The theme this year was Cabernet Sauvignon $15 and Up.
A few lower priced ringers were included (people either didn't follow guideline, or ignored them). These lower priced wines did rather well in Flight 2. In flight 1 we had an unusual occurrence: a three-way tie for first. There were 14 tasters evaluating Flight 1 and 15 tasters evaluating Flight 2 (How did that happen?)
