I wish I had read your response before I went to the winery today. I will try closing my eyes next time and see what flavours I get.<BR/><BR/>Lunch at Hanabishi sounds cheap, but dinner is a bit more expensive. I still might give it a go, looks good and I've read good reviews about it.thanh7580https://www.blogger.com/profile/12101572834580539226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026856914451387773.post-72387446429935017072007-04-06T13:05:00.000+10:002007-04-06T13:05:00.000+10:00I cheated with the tasting notes as I included wha...I cheated with the tasting notes as I included what the instructor, my husband and our friends comments as we discussed each wine. Although,a few were in defiance to the instructor - unriped kumquat, vitamin pills and the fresh cut grass. He told us to put down what ever we smelt and tasted. The course will teach you how to taste and what to look for. I could taste certain favours before the course, such as citrus, tropical fruit, lavender, rose, oak, blackcurrent etc. Sometimes you just need to close your eyes and think about what the flavours remind you of. It's a wonderful thing now that we know what to taste and smell for... Now I'm willing to try any wine... <BR/><BR/>Lunch at Hanabishi is around $20, and dinner is around $50 per person.Kazmichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08713923688863073745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026856914451387773.post-4461840199230720352007-04-05T19:59:00.000+10:002007-04-05T19:59:00.000+10:00I was looking at similar wine courses too. I've on...I was looking at similar wine courses too. I've only in the past year started drinking wine and must say I know absolutely nothing either. I just know what I like as everyone says.<BR/><BR/>Your L-Plater notes are very impressive. Did you pick out all those flavours yourself? If so, you are very advanced already. I can never pick any flavours at all. I've never understood how people can pick out all those flavours. I must not be tasting it carefully enough because I have very good sense of taste and can pick out lots of things in food.<BR/><BR/>Hanabishi sounds great, been wanting to go here for a while. How much did the meal cost per person roughly?thanh7580https://www.blogger.com/profile/12101572834580539226noreply@blogger.com
