This has really come about. No more big booze, this is well integrated, the sweetness has melded with a lovely black pepper spice. Tannins are just silky smooth and a nice black cherry finish that lingers for almost a minute

We had that with you at a memorable dinner at the French place in west palm in 2019. It was terrific. You also provided a 1986 Mouton Rothschild. A great dinner with friends. ( and a 1988 Hermitage Paul Jaboulet Aine- La Chapelle- not a bad trio)
I have pictures to prove it!
2019 domaine Colombier Vacqueras Vielles Vignes. Wine was young. Needed time.

I had no disagreements with the sparklers or whites. I had the Barolo and the cote rotie a lot higher than my friends, but I thought all showed really well.

More to come, although we'll never match that March 2 dinner.
I just polished off a 2019 Lichen Estate Pinot Gris.
It's an incredible Pinot Gris - I highly recommend it. Labeled at 12.5% abv, and it has incredible Aslatian-esque depth. It's a must-have if you are a lover of Pinot Gris.

Those look wonderful and now I’m very thirsty!
2016 Occidental Cuvée Catherine Running Fence Vineyard
2016 Schäfer-Fröhlich Bockenauer Felseneck Großes Gewächs

They were all wonderful. The GG was stupid good, the Remensis is one of the best rose champagnes to my palate around and the Occidental was a very nice Cali Pinot.
Seaqum, braggart.
