"Wine Tasting: California to France"
 
By: Suzanne Sullivan
 

Parents and coaches from Saratoga High School gathered in the home of Godfrey and Suzanne Sullivan's on May 30 to help solve the age old dilemma--which wines are better, those from France or California?  Just like their student athletes, parents and coaches were eager to take on the challenge and help solve the debate while raising money for SHS Sports Boosters.  Wine glasses in hand, and suited up for the job, they professionally tasted fine wines from both regions.  The debates raged between the white wine drinkers and red wine drinkers, but good sportsmanship prevailed as glasses of Sauvignon Blanc, Sancerre, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Burgundy from both California and France were tasted and scored.  It was hard and tedious work, but it was obvious that the tasting teams had prepared and conditioned in advance as there were no injuries reported, well except for a few headaches the next morning!  A glass of the exclusive Justice Cabernet was served to end the evening, and it was unanimously declared that the winner of the evening was SHS athletics!
