Allen Bothers meats; Tomahawk, Filet Milon, New York Strip & Ribeye served family style. Allen Brothers buy only the top 1% of meat quality available on the market.

St. Julien elegance and steak cooked on the Egg Grill. Heaven together.

Second wine from 2nd Growth Leoville Barton in grand vintage. 😋

20 years later, amazing QPR and still improving for a least 10 years.

Salty and still throwing elbows. I enjoy it. Others at the table think we opened it too early.

Committing infanticide...way too young! Chewy, chalky, and herbaceous. Blackberry, mint, eucalyptus, and savory herbs with a medium long finish of smoke and cedar.

Opened July 2022. Deep, dark color. More power than elegance. Still firm tannins. With time in decanter becomes more sophisticated, blueberry compote. Small sips show an extremely long finish, lots to unpack.. Should last at least 15 more years.

Выпито 19.05.21 в Пильнице с И . Белым. Это великолепное Бордо 2000 года лежало у меня в коллекции лет 17 и дождалось своего часа. Очень сбалансированное и нежное, никакого горького или терпкого послевкусие - Вино находилось на пике зрелости. Недолгое декантирование помогло ему раскрыться. Вечер удался.

Beautiful upon opening. Cherry up front, soft tannins, long finish. Wow!

Dry; roundness develops afterward; was delicious over Lamb chops

Almost at a loss for descriptors here. Much brighter red than I was expecting for a 17 year old wine. This wine balances fruit, oak, acid and tannins beautifully. A little musk on the nose yields to red fruit and leather in this wine still showing signs of youth. Tannins are fully integrated. One of the more difficult wines to describe as the flavors seem to change with each sip. A truly elegant wine.
