Just signed an offer letter for a new job so decided to break out something nice from the cellar mid week.

Congrats!
Hopefully I'd get something bigger too next year. It's just all about health, happiness & family. The rest are just necessary inconvenience we have to deal with. |

Well Done, Roger.
Nice to drink something a bit special (lovely old wine) for a special occasion. Saturday night - fun food - Pizza night! Ready to go into the oven. (We like our Pepperoni) Last bottle of the '04 Chateau Tahbilk. Drinking beautifully. Billy Joel's best album on the player. ![]()

Fabulous wine. Took spending thousands of dollars and putting my ego aside to admit that I am not a Burgundy or Bordeaux fan, but I love Southern Rhone. Clos Des Papes is very nice. See me at Bosbevok on YouTube. |

Full bodied fragrant and fabulous Ozzie red. Oaky, with hints of pepper spice and cherries rounded up by a plumy mouthfeel and luscious Shiraz.

Birthday dinner at the local steakhouse last night. Didn't take a photo of the main event -- 2012 Lewis Reserve. It definitely would have benefited from several more years in the cellar (I also don't think Lewis' style is our thing, but wanted to give it a try)
We're a member of the restaurant's wine club, and they were kind enough to bring out a little digestif for us. The lighting made for a fun photo I thought... |

Had quite the evening with some very generous friends to celebrate a bday. Everything was drinking well, though some were drinking in a different realm than the rest (ahem, 2010 Gonon VV).
Still need to get a pic of the 2000 and 2011 Allemand, as well as the 2005 Trollat........ ![]() ![]() Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Gonon VV just crushed it. One of the best Northern Rhône’s I’ve ever had.
