2021 Belle Glos Dairyman. I am not a fan of recent Caymus Cabs, but this is a nice Pinot from the Warners. 
Bogle Cabernet 6/10
Very thin
Nice mineral notes
Sweet, not overbearing at all
Nice table wine probably especially for non wine drinkers, simple to say the least
For the price it’s alright, I would prefer to browse sales on other wines, though I did want to try a highly regarded budget wine.

Some excellent Cacio e Pepe with a rather lackluster organic Sangiovese

I smell like a Christmas pudding
We are having our celebration meal this Christmas Eve. My daughter is home from University and we are having these two wines, a 1992 Barolo and a 1989 St.Emllion. I purchased these bottles when they were new and I was a student at University myself. I have kept them for a special occasion and now seems as good a time as any. 'Unfortunately' I quit drinking in 2016 so I will not be having any 
Fingers crossed that they made it over time Richard. Enjoy the evening with your loved ones!We are having our celebration meal this Christmas Eve.

An impressing wine from a solid but not exceptional year in Burgundy. Elegant and with a wonderful structure, dark fruit (black cherry, also some plum). Medium to full bodied, refined. Long, complex finish. A delight.
Merry Christmas, Gents!
Had to try this…
An uncomplicated yet decent Vinho Tinto de Lisboa, mainly Tinta Roriz/Tempranillo plus Castelao and Tinta Miuda (which I never heard before).
This is a Portuguese bottle readily available in SW FL. Nice reminder of Alfama!
I had it for the first time but am glad that I got a few. Not bad for 5 bucks
Started Xmas with this, anticipating this
So we tried port tongs for the first time and wound up with the neck cracking before applying the ice water! We’re thinking the bottle had not fully warmed to room temp after leaving the cooler. No harm to the contents, however! This ‘97 Fonseca is a little farther along than the Graham’s ‘97 we opened earlier this year. It’s just starting to turn in color and nose/palate to dried fruit. Still has plenty of improving to do! Looking forward to perfecting the tongs!

A vivid Sangiovese blend, sour cherries, herbs and pimento, balanced acid. Fruit-driven and savory finish. A good wine.
