December 13, 2012 - Blind Tasting 1982 Bordeaux vs. California Cabernets (Tom's House, Palo Alto, CA): Nice, youthful, black raspberry nose. Light to medium bodied with medium acidity. Juicy blackberry fruit with a bit of tobacco. Great balance and a smooth and silky texture. Excellent. (my 2nd, group's 2nd)

February 23, 2012 - Dinner at l'Artusi 2/23/2012 (West Village): Blood with a black core, barely bricked, if that. Nose full, deep licorice, leafy green tobacco, a touch of tinny oxidation (pleasing), some piss; some chemical bug spray thing, but not meant as off-putting, just descriptive and nice. Palate a little lean in the Sonoma way, but smooth and pleasingly balanced to tannins; plums, iron. Not too green, but certainly of a kin with the '85 Monte Bello tonight. Medium-full body good, dry length. Nice bottle that we gave no time to, but I really wanted to open it! (My wine)
