that sounds good...

2014 Rotation Red Blend Napa, CA
zin, syrah, merlot

2015, Marcel Deiss Alsace Blance, Alsace, France. Frank, you should be able to find the Lustau Sherry mentioned above. If you can I think you would enjoy it. It is an after dinner sipper. Definatly sweet, but very enjoyable. After opening it will last about 3 weeks.

2015, Ironeside Pinot Noir reserve, Monterrey, California.

Big, rich, dark cherry, and blackberry fruit. A full velvety mouthful. Nice core of minerality. Earthyness, forest floor, and mushrooms. Perhaps a touch of leather, and a hint of Cacao. Nose of violets, red plums, and anise. Long pleasant finish.

Medium rare grilled rib eye.
Creamed spinach with bacon bits.
Fried sweet potato slices.
Tossed salad with 20 year balsamic vinegar.

Sampled some J Lohr in the last few weeks. This is really good juice.
I reccomend the Pinot noir.

2015, Lafarge Bastide Miraflors Vieilles Vignes, Cotes du Roussillon, France.

Not going with a bubbly this New Year eve but going to pull something good out of the Vinotemp.

Thinking Caymus SS or maybe a Harlan Estate

NV, Krug Grand Cuvee, Reims, France
2002 Argle Extended Triage Brut, Willamette Valley, Oregon

Petrossian Royal Osstera Caviar
Tossed salad with Champagne vinaigrette dressing
Langostino with butter
Creme Brulee
Strawberries

Any time brother.

Whoa... I thought we were on for some open ocean fishing after the harbor excursion.

We need to see if you'll barf in 2 foot swells.

That's my knee-gro.

Frank, you are always welcome.

You don’t want me driving in the snow, Frank.

That’s a really good point.

And another really good point. You’re just showing off now.

2013, Yalumba The Strapper GSM, Barossa Valley, Australia.

While not technically a wine. I've been enjoying a bottle of the Kirkland Signature 10 Year Tawny Porto. Very good for how much it costs.

2015, Yalumba Old Bush Vine Grenache, Barossa, Australia.

2014 Decoy (Duckhorn) Cabernet Sauvignon...Sonoma County

Meiomi Pinot Noir.

Anyone use the app Vivino? You take a snapshot of the bottle and you get a rating and average cost.

2014, Porrera Vi de la Vila, Celler Cal Pla Mas d'en Compte Black Slate, Priorat, Spain.

2015, Lafarge Bastide Milaflors, Languedoc Roussillon, France

94 points/$13.00 an absolute bargain for a great red wine. 70% Syrah, 30% Grenache.

2005, Cave Springs Ice Wine, Niagara, Canada.

^ What a nice lineup. I think I'll break out something with some age on it tonight.

I've had mainly local wines lately (Retzlaff, Livermore). For thanksgiving we opened a 2008 Pontet Canet and a 2011 Corison Cab. Both excellent wines.
