Annual guys WTF Christmas party with spouses. Lots of great wine. I’ll post my highlights with pics I got.

Absolutely delicious and in the zone! So much depth and complexity on the nose and palate. Smoked brisket and bacon fat, small hint of olive tapenade, baked mixed berry pie, and sandalwood jump from the glass. Didn’t want to put it down! Richly textured on the palate with sweet smoke, espresso, dark cocoa, blueberries, blackberries, and savory peppercorn. So much going on here. Thanks

Hot damn. Unfortunately being at a restaurant it did not get the decant I would have loved to give it but what a beautiful wine. High abv balanced out by higher acidity than I usually associate with Napa Syrah. Stoney, dark fruit, sensational finish. Always a treat
