a) Clos de Vougeot (I think its A, its the largest GC in the Côte de Nuits but are the others bigger?)
b) Le Montrachet
c) Le Musigny


20- Which is the most northerly of these three Médoc châteaux?
a) Pontet-Canet

c) Margaux
(this should be an easy one for you Bordeaux fans)

a) 100
b) 1,000
c) 10,000 (Ithink its C, cant confirm though)

a) 225 litres
b) 228 litres
c) 500 litres


26 Mendoza accounts for what percentage of Argentina's wine production?
a) 30%
b) 50% (Im leaning towards B, theres been a lot of reduction)
c) 70%

Cloudy Bay is a LVMH brand and Montana is Pernod Ricard so that just leaves Peregrine.

Final answer Mr Bacchus, b) Peregrine......
