Got passed over on Cayuse allocation, but bought a bunch of 2010 Window Pane (Kobalt Second) yesterday in Napa for $29 per bottle.

Very nice on the le Meal, and where did you get the '85 Charlie? Still my favorite bottle of champagne.

In Canada? Really? Duties in?

Just curious, did you pick up this one at the SAQ? I snagged three for myself just before Christmas.

Never mind, I saw it. That should be in the running for deal of the year.

Rob, I thought I had secured more but ended up landing 2. Due to the seriousness of your statement, I think one has your name on it.

And PS, thank all of you (Rob S included) for deeply implanting the champagne bug in Mr. And Mrs. mangiare

May I be so bold as to ask what you paid? I got mine for $82 per, which I thought reasonable.

I'd feel really bad about that. Not bad enough to say no if you insisted, but bad all the same...

Glad you've had you and your wife have had your champagne epiphany. It's a terrible, wonderful thing.

Did you get my email about the hops shoots?

EB, have you had Varner Pinot before? I have not, but thanks to the constant pimping/sharing from thelostverse, I'm a huge fan of their Chardonnay.

Plenty in the cellar Bill. I've yet to try their Pinot myself though.

Still have a couple of 07 Bee Blocks myself!

Didn't see any of the more recent releases at WDC though and I've been to both Naperville and Barrington over the holiday break.

Bill - never tried the pinot. I hear it's an old world style.

Also a big fan of the chardonnays...incredible value.

Got a really good deal on these, especially considering I bought them in Texas, the Champagne rape the consumer land:

4 x 2006 Duval-Leroy Champagne Brut Millésimé @ $42.49 each

You sold! Congratulations.

I hope you find someplace to plug in all your wine storage cabinets.

Stay thirsty my friends.
