Great weekend of wine and friends. Currently in a Keller hole which was my favorite of the weekend. We visited a few vineyards Ovid and promontory were my favorites. Loved the soft oak and approachable style of the new cask of promontory. One of our group is family friends with the owners of Ovid and pulled out all the stops on the tasting. We had a few bottles of the 05 Ovid from the first year of bottling which was drinking exceptionally well. The McDonald 2013 was also a crowd favorite along with the 85 mayacamas and the 82 heitz cellar.

That Chateau d’Yquem is on my bucket list!
Which was your favorite diamond creek?
I could use more bachelor parties like that
My kind of bachelor party 🙌
Damn, what a way to go out… ahem… get into married life. Love the diversity in that lineup. You also hired a private chef?
The Howard Backen house on Pritchard Hill absolutely rocks – crazy cool property and an awesome view of the valley. Got to stay there on the 4th of July last year and we could see the fireworks in Vallejo, as well as San Francisco.
