RE: I'll play.

I think mine was a Heitz Cellars Martha's Vineyard Cab. I don't remember the vintage but it was before the vineyard was replanted (phylloxera).

My wife used to work with a lot of ex-major league baseball players and dinner was almost always at a steak house and involved one up man ship of ordering Cali cabs. That's how we moved from drinking mediocre Italian mass produced wines in favor of better (and usually pricier) wines.

Ice wines? Check out the Olsen Estates Golden Berry...I have a 2008...not sure about other vintages.
It's a botrytised rielsing...individual berries are picked from the cluster only if they are infected...wonderful stuff and reasonably priced.
