Mixed Bag Vol. 15
My bag is always full of wine. Even if it's not my bag. Anyways, it's time to unpack!

This tasting was, without a doubt, one of the most chaotic in Barberry Garden's history. First, it had to be postponed because I caught a cold. Then, the lineup of participants kept shifting - someone decided to join just two hours before the event, another could only stay for the first half, while others cancelled only to show up for the second half. And then there were a few mysterious last-minute changes I'd rather not comment on. As for the wines? They took us on a full-blown emotional rollercoaster. And, remarkably, the selection was curated by four different people.
It all began when Mr Yuri brought back a few bottles from Burgundy and offered two for our charity tasting, explaining that he'd be raising funds to support our colleagues on the front lines. Inspired, I thought - why not ask a few others to contribute two or more bottles each? And just like that, we had a complete, well-rounded tasting. But I never expected such an impressive lineup, so my deepest thanks to Yuri, Elvira, and Julie. It truly turned into a top-tier evening.
