Norm's Tasting Notes

I know we have just finished Thanksgiving, but have you started to plan you Christmas Dinner yet? Many things come to mind, Goose, Turkey Ham, or even Seafood. However at our house it is always Beef, either Prime Rib, or Tenderloin, sometimes in the form of Chateaubriand. So, I am providing you with some good wine choices which I have written about during the last year, but most of them are for red wines, since that is what I like the most for our Christmas Dinner.
1. 2015 La Crema Russian River Pinot Noir - 92 - ($40)
2. 2015 Villa Antinori Toscana IGT - 91 - ($24)
3. 2016 Marietta Cellars Roman Zinfandel - 91 - ($22)
4. 2017 Trapiche Broquel Malbec - 91 - ($17)
5. 2016 Francis Ford Coppola Black Label Claret - ($18)
6. 2016 B-Side North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon - 90 - ($20)
7. 2017 Carneros Creek Reserve Chardonnay - 90 - ($20)
8. 2017 Ferrari Carano Fume Blanc - 90 - ($15)
9. 2017 Joel Gott Oregon Pinot Gris - 90 - ($17)
10. Fritz Zimmer Piesporter Goldtropfchen Spatlese - 90 - ($15)
Whatever you decide to serve for Christmas Dinner, I hope you enjoy one of these wines alongside the main course. If you decide on Chateaubriand, don't forget, its the gravy which makes the difference!
