It’s been a couple of years since we’ve been to @commisrestaurant, what with the pandemic and all, but it continues to be a superb dining experience. Every dish was exceptional and the service impeccable. Definitely among the best of the best in Northern California. Bravo @jamessyhabout and team.

Needed something bright and crisp and citrusy. And wanted to check in on how this wine was aging (not at all yet, still fresh as a daisy). I got all the lemon pith, white flowers, wet stones and crushed shells with hints of seawater I wanted. Lean and positively vibrating with energy. 2019 Ceritas “Trout Gulch Vineyard” Chardonnay, Santa Cruz Mountains, California. Good stuff @john.raytek.

Some fun finds at todays @spainfoodwine #spainfoodnation tasting in San Francisco. My first taste of a Blanc de Noirs still white wine made from Monastrell (aka Mourvèdre - super zippy, fresh and citrusy) and also my first taste of Albarin Blanco (no, that’s not Albariño - incredibly savory and lean with some bitter herbal notes, but delicious). Plus some very tasty “usual suspects.”
