Last night's wine tasting and dinner

[NorCalCigarLover]

Had a great time tasting mainly barbaresco's and barolo's last night at Wente Vineyards in Livermore with frinds from our wine board. I'm not very knowledgable on these wines so it was quite the experience for me. My biggest surprise was how good the 1964 Gaja Barbaresco was! :0 , and the 1958 barolo was also showing well still though it's probably on it's way down already.
