prime rib again

[Georgie]

Christmas dinner is at my house and the troops have requested a standing rib roast. The other day I bought a 2000 Hogue Cabernet Merlot. That should go well, shouldn't it? I'll pick up a bottle or two of something else, also. Only three or four wine drinkers will be there

Hmmm, just found Bucko's notes on this from last winter. He called the tannins "green and chewy." Maybe I'll leave this one in the bottle. I have some other good suggestions from folks on this board for prime rib...Geyser Peak Merlot, Kendall Jackson Cab, Vinter's Reserve, Hogue Merlot, Jacob's Creek Cab., and Ripasso Valpolicella. Perhaps I'd do better to look for a couple of those.
