Last night my wife and I joined our good friends Sharon and Sashi to celebrate Sharon's birthday. I brought the wines. All were popped and poured over the course of dinner at a local restaurant for about 3.5 hours. Slow food, wine and lots of conversation. A great evening.
Sharon, hope you have many more! Have fun in Spain and Germany.
2002 Domaine Huet Vouvray Demi-Sec Clos du Bourg 94 Points
France, Loire Valley, Touraine, Vouvray
Awesome. Perfect condition. Light golden in color. A nose of orange rinds, some mineral and saline. On the palate, this is layered, complex and delicious. Slightly sweet. Viscous texture. Great balance. So smooth. Long finish. Love this wine. Hard not to chug it.

2009 Rhys Chardonnay Alpine Vineyard 94 Points
USA, California, Santa Cruz Mountains
My favorite producer of Chardonnay, anywhere. Really light gold with some green glimmers. The nose is deep with lemon custard, slight vanilla, minerals. Full bodied. Rich texture. On the palate, the lemon custard carries thru only there is a great bite of acidity to balance it out. Young, it unwinds in the glass. Long finish. Great with food.
