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 your weekend and your new wine quiz!

Let’s start with the answers to the last quiz #140. Once again, you needed to identify producers and, sometimes, wines by the fragment of the wine label. Here are the full labels of the wines:

1. Chateau d’Yquem

2. Chateau Lafite

3. Chateau Latour

4. Chateau Margaux

5. Chateau Mouton Rothschild

6. Chateau Haut-Brion

I didn’t call the wines iconic for nothing – you will be hard pressed to find wines of higher pedigree in the world – 5 of the legendary First Growth Bordeaux, plus First Growth from Sauternes.

There were still not as many answers as I would want, but there were two perfect answers, thus we have two winners – Jason Brandt Lewis and Frankie both properly identified all the labels, so they both get the grand prize of unlimited bragging rights.

Today’s set is also not too shabby, I have to say – I would be absolutely ecstatic to drink any of these wines any day. I hope my readers will share my enthusiasm and play along.

Here we go:

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

To make it even more interesting, I’m including a bonus fragment. The wine is perfectly related to the others shown here, but it is a perfect curveball, thus it will not affect your grand winner standing even if you will not recognize this wine:

7.

Once again, there is a perfect connection between all of these wines – figure out one, figure out all of them.

Good luck, enjoy your weekend and your new quiz! Cheers!
