Any other wine geeks out there?

Got an '05 Vieux Chateau Certan I want to open soon along with an '02 Don Melchor that I'm sure will be fantastic. Both still relatively young, but I haven't had anything that knocked my socks off in a while.
Had an '05 Giscours a few months ago which was very nice, but could have cellared a few more years.
what y'all got?

I went to two wine tastings in the past week while on vacation, so you could say things are getting serious.

I have been on a 2013 Columbia Valley Cabernet kick lately.
I have found some very drinkable inexpensive wines out of there. Very smooth to start, not too fruity, that finish strong with a nice aftertaste.
Hard to beat daily drinker

Yes. Up to now I've been more into Italian wines. A buddy is heading to Italy on Friday and already has an order from me for a couple of cases. One is a Chianti Classico Riserva and the other is a Super Tuscan.
Lately, I've been getting into Pinot Noir more so I'll probably get a little more into French wine. We also have a trip planned with friends to Napa Valley November 9th-14th that we are excited about.

I've been to wine tastings dozens of times in California (Napa, sonoma, Paso Robles, Santa Barbara) and I've come to realize my palate just isn't made for wine tasting. I can taste differences between the different varietals but when it comes to the details I don't notice the difference. At least not enough to justify a much more expensive bottle.

I enjoy Rombauer Chardonnay and their Zin. Good stuff. I hope the winery survives the fires.

Had a '12 Palazzo red blend that was awesome. Right bank Napa blend.

We opened a 2016 Old South Sweet Magnolia last night. Good stuff and local.
