Wow...what an awesome night! Some incredible wines...but I have to say the WOTN was Ed's AW Rosella's.....drum roll please......Chard!!! Wow....it's like something right out of Meursault! I hope Ed made a lot....as I'll be buying as much as I can get my hands on!

Good seeing everybody tonight.....Levende did an awesome job on the food...great restaurant! If we lived in the city this would be a regular stop every month!
