Doesn't sound like gloating to me, mareff. Sounds like you're 'suggesting' we do a spread vertical of your Pavie Macquin at the offline. Wink

You'll find a receptive group to that! Big Grin

July 25 or 26 (we'll sort this out soon. Likely Friday the 25th).

This is coming up quickly, and several wines remain 'undeclared'.
Uhem...just saying..you might want to give it some thought. Wink

TBD's: Could you confirm you're coming (I'm preparing to make firm reservations)?

Mareff,

I think that KSC02 is just being dilligent and professional by assuring that we are all still available whichever night is chosen. I know no one more professional than KSC02 (which speaks for the kind of people I know). Big Grin

Are we at nine pages yet?

Who might you be referring to? OK, I'll declare one bottle, the 98 Canon La Gaffeliere. Still working on a second.

THANK YOU, steve8. However, it wasn't just you I was referring to, clearly.

However, do you realize you have now taken the, up til now, prize of declaring the youngest bottle? (just an observation, of course) Wink Big Grin

I picked it so we could see how a bottle from the highly touted right bank vintage is doing. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.
