The IWSC presented a masterclass on unusual wines at French Wine Discoveries in London this week.<\/p>\n

The class, \u2018Unusual Suspects\u2019, was led by IWSC Senior Tasting Manager Pip Mortimer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted to try and introduce some slightly unusual grape varieties, unusual regions, and normal grape varieties grown in slightly unusual regions in France,\u201d said Mortimer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re covering six wines. It\u2019s a whistle-stop tour through something a little bit different.\u201d<\/p>\n

The wines presented were IWSC winners\u00a0Paul Mas Vinus Clairette du Languedoc 2017<\/a>, Domaine Brusset Cairanne Blanc Les Travers 2017, Ch\u00e2teau la Sauvageonne Volcanic Ros\u00e9 2017, Clos Chateau d\u2019Isenbourg Gewurztraminer 2012, La Cave des Vignerons de Pfaffenheim Pinot Noir Tradition 2016, and Les Plos R\u00e9serve Cabard\u00e8s 2016.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, the Gewurztraminer is a favourite\u201d, said Mortimer.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d love to get more people drinking it. It\u2019s mainly only produced in Alsace in France and it\u2019s not a grape variety that people tend to go for, and, but when you get them to taste it they love it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Pinot Noir from Alsace again is a lovely light, fruity wine, and it comes in at a very good price point.\u201d<\/p>\n
