Tonight's wine choices did NOT suck:

2001 Chateau Montelena (feel privileged to have 6 more)
2007 JJ Christoffel 脺rziger W眉rzgarten Spatlese (feel sad that this is the last of the case)

Some others over the last week or so:

2015 Keller Limestone Kabinett (see comment on next bottle below)
2015 Keller Limestone Qba (a certain rebuy - already have a case combined of Kabinett and Qba, but want more)
2010 Dubl猫re Morey St. Denis Les Blanchards 1ere Cru (meh.)
2003 Lagier Meredith Syrah (meh.)
2001 Fontodi Flaccianello della Pieve (there aren't many Italian wines I even like but this I really dig)

This is probably one of my favorite wines that my dad regularly has in the house so I was very happy after my 12 hour shift to find a bottle just opened and waiting for me.

Don't know how I missed this post! That's one of my favorite sub-$25 bottles of Cab. 馃憤

A decent local IPA



And for Canadians of a certain age, the name is probably a reminder of this song:

2009 Arrowood Late Harvest Riesling, Saralee's Vineyard. Satisfying my sweet tooth. Tomorrow night is wine club so I'm looking forward to a nice buffet of American Cabs.

Misfit Red, a local brewery Amber Ale..

That ain't amber, that's dark brown, almost porter-ish. 馃憤 Dude, there's some interesting beer near you. I foresee a southbound 1.5 hour drive sometime for me to scope out some of those establishments.

We drank a really nice Gognac recently. I always thought I don't like Gognacs until I tried this one.
DELICIOUS! 馃憤

Cognac is really sensitive to the glass, I use it as an example when I teach glassware. An open glsss like a old fashioned glass kills the flavor. You really need something with a bowl to trap the smells.

If you ever get a chance to try it with right/wrong glasses. It will taste like 2 different liquids.

That's interesting! Thanks for the heads up, I will definitely do that! 馃憤
