Napa Dessert Wine
2003 Far Niente "Dolce" - Napa Valley - For that price, I'd rather have quality sauternes. Nonetheless, it wasn't too sugary and was held together nicely. One of the best domestic dessert wines out there. Reminded me of butterscotch candy like most California chard's, but on top of it being rich, it had good acidity. Last tasted 2007 Drink now-2011

Wine and Waves
I'm lucky to be a 31-year-old surf punk that gets to sample rare wines like the 1922 Pol Roger, the 1959 Petrus and the 2001 D.R.C. Richebourg--that doesn't mean those wines are always good, or worth the price. Since I've worked as a sommelier (in Monterey, CA) for high-end restaurants like Casanova, the Sardine Factory, and Marinus, I've honed my palate and I can choose a good bottle that won't break the bank. When I have enough time and money, I like to travel with my girl Lindsay Jackson to places with great wine and waves. I'm a certified sommelier (Court of Master Sommeliers) and am available to drink wine. Call: 831-521-8606 or e-mail: pwetterau@gmail.com
