Alder smoked ribeye with SWMBO's signature Madeira and mushroom sauce

Christmas Eve is a time when we have a go to meal that we both love, and a cracking wine to go with it. This year it was a thick ribeye steak, rubbed with a 50:50 Dizzy Pig Cow Lick and Redeye Express, reverse seared over alder and served with my wife's fantastic Madeira and mushroom steak sauce (recipe linked below). We enjoyed this with a 2001 Ch. Sociando Mallet, which is just entering its drinking window. So merry Christmas folks!

To steal a line from my favorite Christmas movie "I said, Godda-n, Godda-n." That is a great cook right there. Nailed the finish. Congrats.Merry Christmas.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Thanks, folks. @bgebrent I think Sociando Mallet is a smart buy is all but the best vintages. The only reason I don't buy it in years popularised by the critics is the corresponding hike in price tag. The winery makes very good wines year on year, the 1997 was/is superb. The 2012 is still available at the en primeur price. I'll be getting a case of that to stash away.
