I'll gladly give you some of mine, DoktaP. They are coming out in Qc very soon for the same price as vintage. Shoot me an email and tell me how many you want.

Finally, since when are you and futronic references on Italian wine? You guys like Barbara d'alba, for C`s sake.
You can't be an Italophile if you dislike Barbera d'Alba and misspell Castelgiocondo and Tuscany. Oh, and then there's the time that you called me from an offline in Montreal for clarification of IGT and various DOC and DOCGs ...

I use the term Italophile very loosely.

I went to the " one " you mentioned knowing they " supposed " to have 12. Walked in there at 10am and was told " somebody " sold them all the night before. Think I saw you walking in when I was pulling away. Went straight down to Woodbine & 7 and got some.
Nice. Well I did pop one last night for fun, to me it was not nearly as complex and expressive as the 05 was when it was released, and it was a little bit heavy on the grenache for my tastes, but even throughout last night it went through a variety of stages. Will see how it does tonight (for the 2005, day 1 and day 2 were night and day, but I loved it both times...the rest are still sleeping). Looks like more than a few other stores have lots of bottles left, but will let you know if I am in a bind. Maybe instead of this, you can give me some of your allocation of Deus ex?

Oops. Reminds me of the time that I misspelled Tuscany.
