I've been helping my friend Mike with some of the preperations for the new wine bar he'll be opening in Pasadena. Friday night, I poured, and tasted, my way through a pretty damn fine line up. Some of the highlights including, 06 Sea Smoke Southing, P2, 97 Williams Selyem, 04 Marsannay, and a 2000 Pommard. Also of note, a Marsanne/ Roussanne blend by Peay Vineyards. We did have one corked bottle, and I even got to hotly debate the subject. I poured some for Mike and he agreed, but I had to battle a wall of naysayers. They said I was wrong, just imagining things, but I KNOW I was right. Final verdict: I was right.
