Great stuff Michael!! Get some of the 2010 as the winemaker Michael Silacci said it is his best vintage yet! I just ordered quite a few more bottles myself.

Will be picking up a bottle or two as well. I will need to invest in the Coravin as I will not want to share it! :) Cheers

As for tonight, I will start with a couple of these:

Really? Is it geographic, or were your local vendors sold out?

Very fine choice in Louis XIII; it's my favorite beverage of any kind in the world. Just ran out of my last bottle a few months ago. I'll have to get more once my watch obsession slows down... :P

Yazi-ginger flavored vodka made by a local distiller.

Highly recommend!(New Year's eve: had this mixed w/ Red Bull and
DJ Anjali at the Bossanova Ballroom).

Notice the Chinese dragon etched on the bottle:

Nice collection of bourbons for sure! Looks like they remade the 10yr 107 proof (I did like the old one though). Never had the Parker... how does that compare (if it does at all)?

The Parker is one of the best in the lineup. It's the latest Parker's Heritage ("Promise of Hope", 2013), since Parker Beam got diagnosed with ALS some of the proceeds went to ALS charities. Parker selected 100 barrels of 10 year old rye-based Bourbon from his favorite warehouse and bottled it un-chill-filtered at his favorite bottling proof of 96 (48% ABV). It's unique, dry, woody, and delicious.

I had heard about Beam and the ALS diagnosis, but somehow missed the rest of the info regarding this one. I will certainly be on the lookout for a bottle around the DC area.
