Love their wines. They do a great Torrontes every year from the Salta region of Argentina. Very reminiscent of a gewurztraminer or a viognier.

I don't know if the aging raises the ABV, but most of the whiskey barrel aged wines are on the higher side.

We have to do a prayer circle too..... We've been in Nola the last couple of Thanksgivings and I made wise, fightintiger and Busboy pray hold my hand and pray with me.

I just got back from Oregon this summer and all of my Pinot I ordered was delivered this week.


Where did you visit and what did you order?

The wife and I are doing a low-key Thanksgiving - just the two of us this year.

Got a bottle of Bordeaux and a bottle of The Prisoner, and I'll probably sip on Basil Haydens during the day while watching football.

You should try the stuff Dave Phinney makes now, Orin Swift. He’s awesome if you like new world, California stuff. He doesn’t do prisoner anymore though. He sold it off for a frick ton.

Big fan of Orin Swift. Went and did a tasting with them last time I was in Napa.

Definitely really great bottles.

Yeah we're definitely going next time we're out there.

Here's our spread for Thanksgiving Eve. A friend brought Faust Cab over so we've finished that and the petite Petit so far. Earthquake is probably next. Machete might wait til tomorrow. Macmurray and talbott are for when we're drunk.

I'm having this problem too. Family in Texas doesn't drink. I won't be able to have a beer until Saturday. Thanksgiving won't be the same.
