With smoked scallops and grilled squash....

[hotwine]

The 2000 Deerfield Ranch Sauvignon Blanc was absolutely superb tonight. Using an oak fire, first smoked the marinated scallops for 20 minutes, then grilled the squash slices over the dying coals. With a gumbo of fresh okra and tomatoes. Sonofagun, it doesn't get any better. Had to open a second bottle, since the cook needed lubrication over the pit. Now only two bottles left in the cellar, but they are at their peak.
