Need a nice Red

[RedWhite&Drink]

Well, I decided on the 2000 Columbia Crest Grand Estate. EXCELLENT! I really liked it. I was wondering if it was aged longer if it would have been better. Nonetheless, my girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

It went perfect with a freshly cut filet stuffed with gorgonzola cheese and topped with some sort of balsamic vinaigrette. A side of garlic roasted potatoes and for an appetizer: spinach leaf salad with gorgonzola cheese, walnuts, carmelized onions and penchetta with a rice wine vinegar and oil dressing.

We (well, mostly myslef) finished the first bottle midway through the meal. The second we saved for the hot tub. It included all the right ingredients, steamy hot water and an aphrodisiac. I'll let you use your imaginations for details.

You're right, the wine was definitely stronger than I thought. Overall great night, and the wine was right on point! Thank you all for such great advice. I think I'll stick around here, read, and maybe call on your expertise for this Friday, Valentine's Day.

Regards,
Jim
