Time to Kill
Sitting in Aureole - Charlie Palmer's Las Vegas restaurant
Ordered up a 1999 australian mouvedre (Hewitson Old Garden Mouvedre - Barrossa Valley). That got the sommelier interested and we had an awesome 30 min conversation. Covered everything from black schist in Spain to 2002 vintage champagne as a lay down bottle for my first son.
Seared fois gras appetizer and NY Strip main course on the way.
Life is not too bad.
