Mike C. really stepped up this evening as he hosted our dinner group, completing the circle that began roughly a year ago (for me, at least). He put together a terrific set of wines, which paired very well with straightforward and very well done bistro cuisine from Duff's.
Thanks for reading.

WOTN for me and for the table -- which, considering the company, is certainly saying something. The petrol nose I found a couple of years ago has mostly faded, replaced by some earthy scents akin to but not exactly mushroom, and a host of other aromas I'm not nearly capable of describing. Really wonderful on the palate with a perfect balance of faded sweetness and acidity. Endless finish. Worked amazingly well with a crab cake / salad / spicy red pepper sauce. Just terrific.
