Made it to Ledger David for my quarterly pick up so tasting:

2019 Viognier new release. More midrange than any previous release, complex white I may have to actually buy some!

2018 Epitome of Three (60%tempranillo 30%sangiovese 10% Syrah) a good blend and the only time I really love their Syrah.

2018 Malbec new release. Probably shouldn’t have had the chocolate I did before this......Lillie Belle Sunshine Daydream is a dark chocolate bar with buttermilk powder added during its processing. Chocolate was great as always, didn’t do this wine any favors though. To be fair I don’t really care for their Malbec in any release.

2018 Dark Knight a blend of Tempranillo, malbec, petite Verdot and Syrah. This is the big fancy brother of the Epitome of Three. Their petite Verdot is one of their prized varietals along with their cab franc.every once in a while they have enough to bottle some pure PV I got a few bottles at my last pick up (their 35 case production is long gone). MUCH deeper and more complex than the EO3. There’s a reason this is there best seller among wine club members.

If that is kinda celebrating I will be curious to know what you drink after number 2. LMAO! I did the same after my shots, just different wines.

No, I'll drink some wicker basket Chianti for that with some Fava beans of course.
