The Wine Century Club – now 590 members strong – celebrated its 4th birthday last Thursday. To mark the occasion, members worldwide tasted 159 different grape varieties. The list included serious obsurities such as Himbertscha, Incrocio Manzoni and Bukettraube.

The club has also started a new level of recognition: Doppel Members, for those who have tried more than 200 different grape varieties.
