Christmas tasting...

Had assembled an interesting group of wines, both our labels as well as several commercial wines for comparing styles... our group, over several generations of extended families, were willing tasters. Firstly, offered a Stoney Hill Chard ('86) that was well received, even by daughter-in-law who has developed an aversion to white wines, but when followed by our own Vionier, the RV wine was the clear winner... next, offered a Koenig-made '04 Williamson Cab, followed by our '06 Reserve... this time the response was even more emotional.. our wine was head and shoulders preferred! More of our wines followed, with generally good marks... but what can you offer after tasting our Reserve?
