AMALTHEA CELLARS ASTOUNDS EXPERTS
AT WINE TASTING COMPETITION Atco, NJ - June 11, 2008 Over
100 wine tasters in Atco, NJ made wine history again on June 9, 2008. Amalthea
Cellars once again upheld the honor of Garden State wines by often being
preferred over the best of French and Napa vintages in a blind wine challenge.
Amalthea Cellars once again took top honors over some of the world's
covenanted wines including; 2001 Chateau Mouton Rothschild Cabernet Sauvignon,
2004 Chateau Cheval Blanc St. Emilion Grand Cru, 2005 Louis Latour
Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay, 2003 Silver Oak Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, 2005
Far Niente Cabernet Sauvignon, 2005 Duckhorn Merlot, and 2006 Cakebread Cellars
Chardonnay in a tasting held at the winery's estate on June 9th, 2008.
Judgment of Paris On October 11th, Amalthea Cellars shocked
the wine world in a blind tasting that was inspired by the original 1976 Paris
wine tasting. Mr. Phillips of MedpowerUSA exclaimed “Chateau
Mouton-Rothschild and Stag’s Leap Cabernet, both at the 1976 Judgment of
Paris tasting that gave the upset to California, were trounced by New Jersey
(Amalthea Cellars) in a stunning upset last night.” Our winemaker remarked
“there have been no changes in our commitment for 25 years, it’s just
that the world is finding us out.” (click here
