Taylor Shellfish Farms is pleased to announce the 2007 "Oyster Award" winners
After four tiers of judging 185 wines entered in the 2007 Pacific
Coast Oyster Wine Competiiton, 10 wines have been selected as equal
winners of the 2007 “Oyster Award”. Wines were judged blind with
Kumamoto oysters. Judges chew the oyster well, smell and taste the
wine and then rate the “bliss factor”.
Final judgings were held April 24 at the Water Grill in Los Angeles,
April 25 at One Market Restaurant in San Francisco and April 26 at
Anthony's HomePort in Seattle. Scores from the 37 oyster-loving
judges...food and wine media, restaurateurs, retailers, oyster
growers and oyster lovers-at-large...in three cities were combined
to select this year’s winners.
And the winners are...
