Over the years, I’ve taken part in numerous blind comparative tastings, some organised purely for fun, others as part of a commercial exercise. But whatever the motivation, none has proved as enduring as the Judgement of Wimbledon Blind Grenache Tasting. Perhaps that’s because the concept captured an evolving trend for this “Cinderella” grape. Named after the venue for the first tasting a decade ago, the Judgement of Wimbledon became not a celebration of power but a genuine search for elegance, site specificity and terroir expression.
