This coming New Years Eve, our group (of six) will congregate to welcome
2010 - the 18th straight year we have done so.

This year, each party will bring a bottle of wine and prepare a dish to
complement.

I have a single bottle of Clos Ste Hune 2001 - and I am struggling for
inspiration.

I have searched on-line for ideas - but have developed a mental block.

So, may I call on the collective wisdom of the group - I have had the
Trimbach CFE on a few occasions, but never the CSH - so I do have a vague
idea what to expect.

Notwithstanding that it is now summer here in New Zealand (I am thinking of
a cold dish to be served as a starter to the main course(s) to follow - with
the wine only lightly chilled) - don't hold back with any suggestions.

All contributions and suggestions gratefully considered.

Note: Yes, I am well aware that this wine might be kept for another decade
or two - but at 8 years, it is my choice of wine for seeing in 2010/
