Veuve Cliquot's Brut Champagne

My favorite bubbly with its classic effervescent and ever so slightly citrus nose. Buttery and rich but dry and über quaffable. Our "house" champagne when times are good and a splurge when they ain't. Only Krug and Dom can out shine here (yes I am excluding Cristal).

2009 Iconoclast from SLD, Napa

Strong notes of vanilla and cherries on the nose. Big bursting plum with mouth covering flavors of smoke and chocolate.

The Four Seasons has this wine made for them. Gorgeous.
