Paradise by the Dashboard Light! "SLV"

Thankfully the Patriots won and I won't be doing shots tomorrow after bike class! This evening the Black Family provided the Stag's Leap Wine Cellars sister wine "S.L.V." While the FAY was immediately approachable this was a slow developing hurricane that became a Category IV a couple of hours after it was open and was devastatingly brilliant in it's finish. You could tell that the SLV and FAY were definitely related but SLV was in for the long haul even over dry land. With it we had two different lasagnas - a Neopolian and Bolognese. Ultimately, I had to cut Tom Black off and save him from himself. Finished with flambéed apples done by BAM. As a comparison wine we had a Kirkland Signature Shiraz from 2004. A great wine with a definite creamy milk chocolate edge and everyone declared as one of the truly great under $10 wines they had.
