catering business. Andrew has run several pubs in the Ribble Valley so kno\vs what customers enjoy eating while Adel has worked in hotels on the front-of-house side. However, she has always had a passion for cooking which she learnt from her mother. She told me that “It’s not like work at all because I enjoy it so much”.

BOASTING more than 9,000 entries from which 5,628 were award-winning wines, the International Wine Challenge has become THE most impor­ tant wine occasion and the best and biggest blind wine tasting event in the world. Starting in early April, more


than 40,000 bottles of wine start arriving at the Barbican Centre in London. Each is logged, categorised and coded by grape variety, style, country and region of origin in time for the'first day’s tasting on April 24th. In the first round, all wines are tasted blind, and par­ ticular regions are pitted against each other. For the tasting process wines


are put into “flights” of between eight and 20 wines. Tasters must ensure they match up the correctly tagged wine, taste and evaluate on a scoring system of one to 100, wines scoring 85% and above are deemed medal worthy and sent on to the next round. Up to 1,500 wines are tasted daily. More than 465 tasters took part this year, including jour­ nalists, wine makers and wine merchants as well as 42 Masters of Wine. The gold, silver and bronze


awards have already been made public at the Wine Trade Fair in May, but the trophy winners will not appear in press until September. My sources have revealed the


trophy winners, but not the stockists or prices. To get a tro-

phy the final round of the chal­ lenge is for all the co-chairmen to taste blind the gold medal winners and they then select the outright trophy or it could be a split decision where two wines are awarded the trophy in the same category. Suffice to say these are the best of the rest and are as follows: The International Sauvignon


Blanc Trophy goes to.GROVE MILL SAUVIGNON BLANC 2005. The International Zinfandel Tro­ phy goes to IRVINE ZINFANDEL RESERVE 2003 from South Aus­ tralia. The International Shiraz Trophy goes .to JIM BARRY THE McRAE WOOD SHIRAZ 2003, again from Australia. The Por­ tuguese Trophy went to QUINTAS do VALLODO 2004 from the Douro VaUey. The Joint International


Chardonnay Trophy went to MONTAGNY VIELLES VIGNES BLASON BOURGOGNE 2005, from France along with a New Zealand entry CAPE CAMPBELL RESERVE CHARDONNAY 2005.


heat-proof bowl. Put the bowl over a pan of sim­ mering water, remove from the heat, then set aside until melted. Stir, take the bowl off the pan, then leave to cool slightly. 4. In a clean bowl, beat the cream, soft cheese


and mascarpone then stir in the melted chocolate. Spoon onto the base and put back in the fridge for at least three hours. For the summerfruit sauce 1. Place the summerfruits in a pan (defrost


first if using frozen), add sugar to taste, when softened blitz with a hand blender. The blended summerfruit is fine to use at this


stage with cheesecake, however if you wish to create a coulis style sauce then add the blended fruit either a liqueur of your choice (we use Cointreau) or blackcurrant cordial mixed with water (we use both liqueur and cordial) this will then loosen the fruit mixture. Finally pass through a sieve, the coulis is now ready to use. Serve in slices with a little of the coulis driz­ zled over it and the rest at the side.
