valentine's gifts

The flowers that Steve got brought home on Thursday night, a bottle of Gloria Ferrer's 1998 Carneros Cuvee, and a fancy S'mores kit from Recchiuti, in lieu of chocolates. The card in the picture is the one I gave to Steve, since he forgot to get one for me. It's not like he had 20 ingredients to buy for Valentine's Day dinner or my new tripod to bring home or anything... oh wait, he did.

 

The notes on the website for the cuvee, which we'll open tonight:

 

The 1998 Carneros Cuvee is a sophisticated and seamless celebration of complexity and finesse. The bouquet is a well-integrated array of aromas including ripe apple, Asian pear, brioche and hazelnut. On the palate, the wine's opulent mousse and creamy textures carry copious flavors of lemon, pear, cream, vanilla and toast through a rich, harmonious, eduring and refreshing finish.
