Made the trek to Redondo Beach for our monthly gathering of the wino's. Host made great ribs for the main dish and lots of complimentary food was brought.
Today's theme was red Wines From The Barossa Valley and French Champagnes. All the bubblies were good. A couple of stand outs were the Robert Moncuit Grand Cru Brut, Moet & Chandon Imperial. A 2004 Dom Perignon really needed a couple more years. It was good but would be much better cellared a little longer.
I concentrated on the bubblies and had just a small pour of the reds. It is a bit of a drive to get back home. The 1993 Hallet Old Block Shiraz was good along with a 2008 Kaesler Shiraz. The 2011 Two Hands Bellas Garden Shiraz was good but young. A few more years on that one also.
