Private Residence - Las Vegas, NV
Tasted Friday, January 29, 2016 by charleshetzel with 704 views
This was a tasting among friends organized by our very gracious hosts Duncan Bastin and his fiancee Yvonne B. Accompanied by Bret & Amy Davis, Jeff Ruggels, and Sarah & Charles Hetzel. The dinner had 8 flights accompanied by wonderful meats, cheeses, breads, and Mediterranean fare. This is our second annual January Vegas SQN tasting and was particularly fun for me as it was also my birthday weekend celebration - turning 46! Thank you Duncan, Bret, Jeff, Yvonne, Amy, and Sarah for an incredibly generous and hedonistic food/wine weekend! Let's repeat it again in January 2017!
My WOTN was the 2000 Sine Qua Non Gewürztraminer No Name - truly a Unicorn bottle of wine of all Unicorns.

Love this Champagne. Opens with terrific green apple, pear, and extreme toasted bread with hints of lemon. This Champagne is a crowd please and has great depth, richness, and posture.
