[Inside the Kings] Ask Jim Fox, part 7: My wife and I were fortunate enough to visit Bordeaux in 2001...we stayed at a hotel right next to "Chateau Lynch Bages" in Pauillac...we took a one day wine course at the winery and I saw something that was truly amazing...a young lady taught the course...she was only 25 years old...she went through her presentation which included a rundown on the 5 grapes that are used when blending a "Bordeaux Red"...Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot...we tasted all 5 separately and we discussed the grape characteristics and then tasted each grape "blind" and tried to tell which was which...at the end of the class, she asked us (8 people total) to "blend" our own wine...each of us was to use all 5 grapes in the blend...we were to keep track (write it down)(estimate) of the percentages used...40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot etc...she left the room when we blended the grapes...when she came back her challenge was to taste each glass of wine and tell us what the breakdown of each blend was...how much of each grape...she went around and tasted each glass of blended wine and gave her answers to us...she hit all right on the nose...8 glasses...8 perfect breakdowns...I tried to screw her up and used a lot of the grapes that usually only make up a small percentage of a "regular Bordeaux Blend"...I put in 40% Petit Verdot...30% Malbec etc...didn't fool her for a second...I had never seen and I have never seen since anyone be so precise in tasting wine...truly impressive...
