Jacques Selosse
Initial Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay
Love it to - fab bubbles 👍🥂
Ruinart
Brut Rosé Champagne
Did not have any champagne! What is wrong with me
Always a great start to the night. Perfect with caviar.
Sorry I didn’t get to enjoy. Next time we all need to start the evening off with some bubbles. Don’t let ANYONE crack into the wine until they have a glass!!!!
Belvedere
Vodka
Liver thanking me for missing these
@Jason Cutrer @Rina Kolotinsky when someone said “double magnums” it was smiles all around. When they added “vodka” - fear struck the crowd.
Great picture. Had to pass on the vodka.

Perrone Monte Bello Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2009
Macdonald
Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2012
Surprised by your rating. I had a few of these in the past, but haven’t found it to be special.
@Rob Sternthal Need to stand it up for half a day. Decanted for several hours. 4/6 wouldn't heard it. Heavy sediment it. I've enjoyed several bottles and like them very much. One of the few things we disagree on .
Great bottle. 9Suns exceeded in my mind but ever so slightly. Great wine and even better company. Super fun night! Thanks for hosting @Gunja Gargeshwari and @David L and @Eric S making the long trip.
Carter Cellars
Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2005
@Norman Gennaro Maybe it was just me. It might've needed a lot of air.
Del Dotto Vineyards
The Beast Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
@David L jealous! We love Del Dotto but haven't had the Beast.
I had this as WOTN right up until we had the Nine Suns. Fantastic bottle. Super stoked that I also got to meet @David L and @Eric S and try both wines at the same time. My Carter did not just pale going up next to them but literally collapsed. These two were amazing and blew everything else out of the water.
