Tonight's bottle...A treat after a rough work week! What are you drinking?

WINE TALK
21

2009 Rhys Santa Cruz Mountains, my first opened, after a long long week in which the spring '13 shipment arrived. No shrinking violet, this one.

22

Test driving '11 Lapierre Cuvée Marcel. '08 Moreau-Naudet Montée de Tonnerre to start.

23

Never! [shock.gif]

24

A busy, rough day for me today too. Just after lunch, Jennifer Lamb dropped in and poured her new Sauvignon Blanc, Two Old Dogs Cab and Herb Lamb Cab for us. That brightened the day and made the afternoon fly by. Carrie just opened the 2011 Roar Pinot Noir for lap top hour.

25

Finished off the two half empty bottles from earlier this week:
N.V. Philipponnat Champagne Brut Non-Dosé (Fantastique!)
2000 Pégaü Réservée

26

Still working…grrr.

Sleep after that. Perhaps a “special” bottle tomorrow, but really I’d rather just have a moment of contemplation with whatever fits the fare.

Cheers,
fred

Second night of Rivers-Marie 2011 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir. What a great wine.

We worked over a decent bottle of Chateau St Jean Chardonnay while I made dinner, and soon will be enjoying some '07 Dehlinger Claret while playing cards or backgammon while the kids sleep

2011 Carlisle Sonoma County Zinfandel, soft, lush, tart, juicy, goooooood!

That’s still hanging over my head too. This is real work. Tax work comes in the day tomorrow. Don’t cry for me Berserk-en-tina.
