Almost every rose I tried was worthy. Two Italian wines, Tormaresca Neprica from Puglia and Ajello Bianca from Sicily, were fabulous, but are difficult to find – and one of the rules is that if wines aren’t available, they can’t get in the <a href="http://www.pass4sure.org" rel="nofollow">pass 4 sure</a> Hall. The same is true for the various Tortoise Creek wines, which disappeared from store shelves this year. Truth be told, I could have picked two or three times those five wines this year.
