From your LWS?

2010 DOMAINE TERLATO & CHAPOUTIER LIEU DIT MALAKOFF SHIRAZ.

Figured a RP97 point 2010 Aussie Shiraz (which he no longer really covers for WA) was worth a look for $50. Grabbed a couple of bottles.

Good to see you posting Baird, welcome back!

So due to a shipping fiasco in the fall, we had been given a gift card to Chateau Montelena by the third party shipping company. Combined it with a $5 ground shipping on any order special they are running, and Domino ordered:

1 x 2010 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay John Muir Hanna Vineyard
3 x 2009 Chateau Montelena Sauvignon Blanc Late Harvest (375ml)

2006 Pierre Peters Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil-Sur-Oger

Last week:
2009 Dunham Baby Bear Syrah
2011 Dunham Lewis Vineyard Riesling

This week--just sent off my order to Ostreon for some of their 2009.

I brought this to our tasting group blind. Most thought it was traditional northern rhone with one guessing south africa. Chock-full of olives, capers, brine, and pepper. A nice surprise.

What did your crew figure for a drinking window WC? I'm wondering too. Thanks for posting the note. It looks appealing and worth picking some up.
