We were lucky enough to have Chef Carrie Shores (formerly of Table 6 and now at Work Options for Women (WOW) and the upcoming cooking show Knife Fight) in our kitchen with her crew to make us a fabulous meal. This was work related so I chose to feature wines from the 2000 vintage to commemorate the day I started in the job 1/1/2000 (Y 2K Day).

Similar to my note from 4 years ago. This is definitely maturing as it seemed both creamier and nuttier but still had plenty of fresh apple and bright acidity. very nice.
