The Institute of Masters of Wine is delighted to announce the inaugural "half-blind" tasting in New York City.  The idea is to taste a focused group of wines from a given region with limited information announced beforehand.  A series of MW-style questions will be distributed with the wines, and students are encouraged to write their answers as they would for an exam. 

However, this event is not limited to Masters of Wine or MW students: it is open to anyone who would like to taste through the wines, and completion of the questions is not mandatory.  We will taste six wines in an hour, and a panel of three Masters of Wine will conduct a one-hour debrief of the wines following the tasting.  The tasting will be strictly limited to 20 tasters and tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis.

For our inaugural event we have chosen wines of the Jura.  We hope that you will join us to taste interesting bottles from Ganevat, Overnoy, Puffeney, Macle, and more.
