TN: The Kesslers visit NYC and I roast a little piggy to go with some terrific wines.

Dinner at Joe's with attending guest chef Brad Kane was a fine evening as usual. I liked the Pascal Cotat rose better than Brad.
What was not mentioned, the before main course appearance of Jose Pastor who is the person responsible for all the Spanish wines in Farm Wine Imports (Dressner's Co. West coast) We had a large platter of "Shrimp Diablo" that we consumed with gusto. Found Jose and his two friends to be fun and interesting.
I have to admit that Brad is rising in the culinary world, we all know that Joe has already climbed that summit. Great night! That pig was yum!

Is the 03 Steiner Hund any good?
It's one of the best white wines from Europe in 2003 IMO. I didn't buy it at the release price, but I read into your question that you might have access to some at a good discount. You should certainly try one.

I bought a bottle of this, after all, for Christmas dinner. Advice on advance opening or decanting?

Muy obrigado.

I haven't had it lately. I eagerly await your review. I bet you could pop and pour, but if you had a carafe handy I bet it would be useful.
