Katharine: wine-tasting of reds from around the world

Michel duPF took us through the wine-tasting of reds representing an eclectic range of countries:
Morocco, Hungary, Portugal, USA (Oregon), Italy, Spain, and one from the Pic St Loup, Languedoc, just to remind us of where we live.  Caroline served a wonderful dinner of charcuterie with roasted asparagus, aubergines and red peppers accompanied by salad;  followed by a casserole of chicken in cream and aneth sauce; and finishing with orange spice cake, strawberries in port, and an almond tart.  A luscious evening of food and wine - thank you to Caroline and Michel for hosting us, and for everyone who participated and brought such interesting and provocative wines and delicious food to share.(Editor:  photos from Katharine and Caroline).

Leslie participated in the tasting this time, rather than leading it - but gave us background on the wines served.
