Baking: Another sourdough spread enjoyed standing around the baker's cabinet. This one featured Humboldt Fog Cheese and a twenty-one year aged bottle of Ken Wright Cellars Pinot Noir. Ken Wright is arguably Oregon's greatest winemaker. Back in the year 2,000 we visted his winery for about the third time and tasted barrel samples of that year's harvest. We liked the Guadeloupe best, and for the first time in my life, bought a case of "futures", meaning, you pay for wine that hasn't been bottled yet. Before that we typically bought two bottles "to go". Six months later, after it had been bottled, we drove back down to the winery and picked up what we bought as "futures". Today we had our first bottle of that wine. It was superb. It is in its prime and we have eleven more bottles to enjoy over the next couple of years. We also have a mixed-case of his 2001 Canary Hill and Carter Vineyards wine that we bought as futures the following year.
