Peter Pratt's Inn
Tasted Wednesday, April 7, 2010 by Vinomarcus with 697 views
The first Wednesday of every month rolls around quickly for most folks, but not quick enough for our thirsty band of oenophiles. We gathered this time with another occasion to celebrate as one of our members is turning the big 5-0 this week. Since Mike primary loves California wine, a lot of the offerings were geared that way. We were lucky enough to have the most amazing weather on tap and we found ourselves dining outdoors watching the most spectacular sunset of orange and purples setting over the distant hills. Being outdoors may affect the smell and taste of wine a bit, but it was worth whatever the cost to be enjoying 80degree temps with zero humidity at dusk.
The food was spectacular as usual as Nick and J.P. wowed us yet again. The wines were pretty damn good too, but the conversation and camaraderie was the true focus.

Mike brought this to help kick off his birthday celebration. Very toasty, lovely mouth feel, mousse, hints of hazelnuts, really enjoyable.
