What's "leftover Champagne?"

Smart ass! It's what happens when PH thinks it's a good idea to open "just one more bottle" towards the end of an evening of debauchery. Fortunately, it's only happened with NV stuff so far. And even then, not a lot leftover.....

2003 Pegau Reservee.

For some inexplicable reason, Mrs DP and I drink more white wine on weekends at the getaway place than at home. One of our closest friends will only drink Cali-chards. For that reason, bought a few Antica chard (2010) and Sbragia (2009) to have handy up north. Great sipping wines in front of the fire with cheese and breads/crackers. It's that time of year again.

in search of unique stuff lately..

2011 Arnot Roberts Touriga Nacional Luchsinger Vineyard Rose
2010 Wind Gap Wines Pinot Gris Windsor Oaks Vineyard (12 months on the lees, never seen a wine of this color before)
2011 Éric Texier Côtes du Rhône Blanc

From the winery: 2007 Black Prince pinot noir.

Actually picked up a third. It was all by itself in the case and it looked so lonely.

Did you take the dYquem OWC as well???
Great collectable box to hold all your .375s!

I unfortunately did not. Huge fail on my part.

I would be excited about this one if I were you.

Wife wanted to stock up on some pinot for the holidays...

I was in Ohio this week and was gifted a 2007 Cabernet from an Ohio winery.

I can honestly say I have never had a bottle of wine from Ohio in my cellar before.
