They look fabulous and a fairly eclectic spread.
I'm sure they drank very well.
My tipple for Christmas was more low brow---a Russian blanc from th Black Sea which had nose suggestive of Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris and a relatively austere palate with receding fruit.Most likely should have been drunk three years earlier.
The spanish red was similarly drunk too late as the fruit of plums and blackcurrant were fading.

Still ,a good time to explore new wines with X'mas fare.
Cheers to your great lineup!!

I decided to just ignore the theme or whatever food pairing and drink what please me. Maybe was abit ambitious considering there were only 4 of us Merry Christmas to all Tyler ...  

Oh wow!

We just ordered two cases for Christmas and the new year. Chasse-Spleen 2015 Les Fiefs de lagrange 2012 ...  

Nothing wrong with being ambitious ;-)

Must have been a brilliant time with much discussion and hopefully laughter. Happy belated Christmas to you. Cheers, Tim

We only managed this bottle for Christmas Eve dinner...

It did help that it was a double magnum! Oh and there were 4 bottles of French bubbles that preceded it😜 Cheers, Tim ...  

Wow

3 of those baby’s would have been enough for our evening ... good effort and great selection!

My kind of gathering for four people. Hats off.

Any single bottle from the selection is good enough to be the star at any party. Did you end up have a favorite? Best wishes Bill

Yes I did
