The Lyon Hall

What do you do when you have a few too many of something you don't drink much of? Throw a tasting of course. The Cabs were double decanted over 3 hours before the event and served around 60 degrees.
With Iberico chorizo?! Weird, but not bad.
I wanted a progression of years and a variety of appellations.
Stilton or Roquefort?
Notes to self:
1. Too much!
2. Need more variety
3. Hedonism is ok sometimes

This was served as an opener for a Cab Sauv tasting since the Sauvignon Blanc (50% here) is a parent grape AND there was a bit of symmetry with dessert. White citrus, green apple, unripe pear, mango, chalk, and flint notes on a nice texture. Juicy acidity finishes things off.
