Thursday, December 22, 2022 - Dinner with Wayne at Kevin's. Local Twin Cities beloved Chef Don Saunders killed it for our crew at Kevin's place. 11 of us were treated to a night with Kevin's spry 91yr old dad who delighted everyone! Wayne Loves Cabernet & BDX so we had some potentially monumental reds to compliment a great night while 30 below MN temps whipped at the door. Thanks Kevin! WB,KB,VB,CV,DD,JV,BB,ML,LI,CS & SS

Kevin's btl tonight & maybe my co-wine of the night since my other was a 100pt Pomerol. This blew me away from my first whiff in the glass where it became obvious this was going to rock & call for several encores from the band! Perhaps the subtlety of my '08 Dauvissat Preuses only served to set the table for this wine! The nose was like standing next to a miner drilling limestone and catching the residual in my glass. So much lovely dry extract but no sot much that it buried pretty layers of citrus, topical & stone fruit nuances. The balance here was exquisite! So weightless & ethereal yet intense without a scratch or pin prick of acidic pain. I will long remember this btl and hope I come accross a blt that mere mortals like myself can afford to pay-up for. Tonight's btl may eclipse the first Montrachet I ever had. In that sense, its almost a "steal". Loved it, thanks Kevin! 99+
