A few to wash down the sirloin roast.

The father of the groom, an old friend from Denver, and the Gran-Pa(me) got together yesterday to solve a few of the major problems 'afore they surfaced.All decided to try a few of the 94s' so opened the following. St Clement, Arrowood, Groth, Conn Creek Anthology, Joseph Phelps Napa, and BV Tapestry. My mental notes are sketchy to say the least but here's a 'membrance. St. Clement brite ruby fruits, high floral notes. Still needs a little time. Super offering. 20 on issue 89/92. Arrowood. Think I've reported on this but it's still a killer bottle. Lots of stuffing, plenty of structure and lovely rounded tannins to carry it another 3-5. Will develop into a stunning bottle. 30. 92/92. Like the Arrowood, this is a great bottle in the making. Has more spicy nuances along with the massive black and red fruits. 35. 92/90. I reported on the Anthology earlier this week..'haint changed. Seduced all them dudes. The Phelps Napa is a big booger. Will be another 5 before it calms down. And the BV Taperstry is another wine I've reported on. A world class bottle. Tomorrow's the big day. WW
