Took clients to Morton's Steakhouse and thoroughly enjoyed both of these 1.5 ml 2011 Caymus Special Edition. A little young, but put in a decanter for about 30 min. and opened up quite nicely.

Great choice Gaboudreaux. Caymus Cab is always a reliable treat. Especially when preceded with an equably reliable performer: Duckhorn Cab. It gives the Caymus a sublime chocolaty aftertaste.

Yes, was really good! Was in Napa in June and visited Duckhorn. Brought back some 2010 Monitor Lodge Cab which is pretty good. I also like their Golden Eye Pinot Noir. Favorite from the trip was Del Dotto cabs and Quintessa cabs. And for white, Quintessa also has a Savignon Blanc called Illumination that is awesome.

1.5 ml??? That's barely enough to even coat your tongue! Cheapskate!

Watching the tropical sun just starting to go down by the water's edge, Balvenie 14 (Caribbean rum cask) accompanied by an Arturo Fuente Hemingway. Enhanced by Ted Rosenthal's version of Rhapsody in Blue on the AK120/SE 535 LEs. Life is good.

Four Roses Single Barrel. I used to snub Four Roses products, but the single barrel and the small batch are pretty good bourbons for the price.

What we have here is a 'fat finger' mistake. The pics are clearly 0.75l bottles. Good stuff.
