Talk-A-Vino

The Wine Quiz series is not meant to intimidate. The whole idea here is to have fun and learn something new. When answering the questions, it is fully encouraged to use all available sources of information, including Google or any other search engine. There are no embarrassing answers – the most embarrassing thing is not giving it a try…

Welcome to the weekend and your new wine quiz!

Today we are taking a break in the grape trivia series. In honor of the Father’s Day tomorrow, today’s quiz will be a little bit about politics, a little bit about power, a little bit about the money, and may be just a touch about dreams – note that the choice of words in this sentence is not accidental. No worries, though, as this all will be well connected to our beloved subject of wine. I think this might be a tough one – but as many times before, I might be completely wrong about that. You tell me.

And now, let’s have some fun!

Q1: What the following wineries have in common? Chester-Kidder, Modus Operandi Cellars, Beckmen Vineyards, Mumm Napa, Peter Michael

Q2: What the following producers have in common? Pol Roger, Domaine William Fevre, Domaine de la Romanée Conti, Château Lynch-Bages, Veuve Clicquot

Q3: What is common between the following wines/producers? Arbois Vin Jaune, Chateau d’Yquem, Romanée Conti, Château Lafite, Château Cheval Blanc, Heidsieck

Q4: What the following grapes have in common? Sagrantino, Tannat, Bonarda/Charbono, Norton, Vranac

Q5:  This one you can consider a bonus question, as it is almost personal. What is common between DRC, Petrus, Screaming Eagle, Quintarelli and Pingus?

Good luck, enjoy the quiz and your weekend. And of course Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads out there! Cheers!
