I agree with your title.
I'm going to have to disagree with my friend Jim on this one. Your title should be "Let Your Saxa Age!"

For Saximum enjoyment. We enjoyed a 2007 Booker last week.

As far as the wine goes, you might try searching for "Honolulu Wine Stores or Oahu Wine Stores." There are quite a few options. NK Wine Shop seems to have a nice selection.

Oh, man, not again.

This guy must be stopped.

It's deja vu all over again.

My order had a lot of brown. Is this normal? The steaks were shipped frozen, but arrived thawed. The foam was detached on one side. The ice packs were still frozen. They’re dry aged, they come a shade of brown. They are shipped fresh, not frozen. Your steaks will be fines as long as the vacuum seal...

Golf notes are useless without scores.
Huge +1.

Only a bogey. No big deal.

We really enjoyed the 2014 rose last night.

What's up with the case of Gordon's Gin or Vodka?

Odd cellar occupant.

It's gordonswine.com

I disagree, but omelet your comment go.
He’s right, it’s a shell of its former self.
Really? A little birdie told me that chicks dig it.

I'm sure, but not some of the hard-boiled characters around here.

To chicken to answer my question on your egg statement, Bruce?
The problem is that he thinks he’s the cock of the walk.

Your egging him on is only eggsacerbating the situation.

Had a beautiful 2003 Lagier Meredith Syrah last night.

That's great to read. We have a couple hiding somewhere.

This one. Oops. It's the 2017 Cole Ranch Riesling.

Chateauneuf-du-Pape and Chianti.

In fact, maybe do a search of Ken's posts. He's the man to help you.

Ken Zinns should be along shortly...

Have at it folks. It's also National Junk Food Day and National Creme Brûlée Day. It's also National Hot Dog Month and National Grilling Month. I was born on National Chocolate Souffle Day. You?

Can't I just have one bourbon, one scotch and one beer?

Apt spellcheck in your subject line, Blake. Should have been Vincent Priorat vs. Peter Loire.

SOS - "$hit On a Shingle Chipped beef, butter, flour, milk and pepper over toast Sounds gross, but is quite tasty I used to regularly get Leo's chipped beef (a sixteenth of an inch?) with French's mustard on pillowy white bread for lunch. And I think Mom did make the SOS occasionally. What the heck...

2012 Pagani Ranch. Exactly what I wanted with grilled pork ribs.

Suddenly, my glass of Bedrock rose doesn't seem so impressive. Well done. Color me jealous.

Pride Mountain (mostly in Sonoma) is about a half hour away and has picnic tables with great views. Fisher is another beautiful property a few minutes closer than Pride.

Sonoma Valley/Kenwood area would be closest. Chateau St. Jean has beautiful grounds and a picnic area, I believe.

A huge +1

So are we sacrificing the OP?
Not much of a sacrifice, really. He self-immolated on the first go round.

Let me stand next to your fire...

We use Lefty O'Doul's Margarita Mix. No high fructose corn syrup, I think.

2007 Dehlinger Syrah to go with grilled lamb chops.

A 2012 Bedrock Vineyard Zin consumed last night was absolutely delicious. And with the added Petite Sirah and Alicante Bouschet I think it should drink well for several years.

I remember Herb Caen writing that Velveeta was in the gourmet food section in Chico markets. [wink.gif] Not just in it, it was it! I grew up in Reno. There, my mom told me the Kal Kan was “Mexican Food.” I thought the pig aortas were calamari. You got Kal Kan? Lucky you. I think the stuff which cou...

Peanut butter and dill pickle sandwich.....Deelish!! Yep, I used to get those in my bag lunch back in the '60s. Check your old lunch box.......if one is there, I bet it is still good. champagne.gif I wouldn't be surprised. Still, that peanut butter and pickle sandwich had to be healthier than its p...

I don't think Bryan ages the hangers and filets nearly as long as the New Yorks and ribeyes, so the moisture content is greater in the hangers and filets.

Can I reverse time to when I never read that?

Yes, if you happen to be Superman.

I thought a snotball is one of the pitches in MadBum's arsenal.

We saw Derek with the ABB there in 09 I think. Incredible.

With Warren Haynes? I saw that show too. Outstanding.

I don’t know squat about OR Pinot Gris, but have to second your advice about catching the Tedeschi Trucks Band in concert.

Yep, we saw them on 5/11 at the Fox in Oakland. Fantastic show at a great venue.

I always thought it was Stony Hill circa 1950's as well. Tom Hill should chime in, as I am sure he's followed them from the very start!

See post #11.

Sous vide, of course.

Howard was partner with Jimmy Jones until they sold the store (10 years ago?) and didn't guide. I think he worked a while for Jack Dennis before HCF and again after the sale. He was my fishing buddy here in CA until he moved to Jackson 30 years ago. Helluva fisherman.

Dave, do you know Howard Cole, formerly of High Country Flies?

While at pride, head to school house down the block. Intimate tour with some aged Pinot. Clippings from drc Napa Pinot and DRC. Lol. Actually, there's an interesting story here, involving suitcase cuttings of La Tache (I think) which were planted on the valley floor in the 1940s and none other than...

Anton, all the time you spend here and leave us hanging?
Maybe he didn't want to toot his own horn? No reason to amp things up.

He came here looking for clarity and, as usual, things quickly became distorted.

Crowds thin out after Labor Day so traffic isn't as bad. Also, the cooler weather gets the bison and elk moving to lower elevations so the wildlife viewing is excellent. You might want to consider a loop (either direction) which includes Idaho, West Yellowstone, Yellowstone Park, Grand Tetons, Jacks...

1997 Dehlinger Cab to go with some grilled lamb chops.

We have friends who just stayed at La Playa in Carmel and loved it. I think the rates include breakfast and a shuttle.

See if you can get into Mission Ranch.
If you can’t, go by for dinner and sit outside

And maybe Clint will drop by to tickle the ivories.
