Is that a local purchase? I would like to add a few to the cellar.


Sigels, in Addison, and a must buy. Wink


If you see they are running low today please clear them out and I'll be more than happy to help any way I can. Wink


Will do. I will call you (cell) when I head that way.

I had these wines last night while playing poker with the guys. Unfortunately, I didn't keep any detailed notes on them but one clearly stood out. The wines are listed in the order they were drunk.

1) 2004 Domaine Serene Evenstad Reserve
2) 1998 Smith-Haut Lafitte
3) 2001 Argiano Solengo - consensus WOTN
4) 2001 Coppola Cask Cabernet
5) 2002 Rosenblum Richard Sauret Vineyard

Please post your thoughts...on the wine.

Not really sure what to open up, tired of clearing out junk with drinking windows coming to a close. Going to barbeque tonight, the pool is at a perfect 90 which should cool nicely through the evening, I guess my girlfriend and I will start with a champagne:

N.V. Moët & Chandon Champagne White Star

I'll move to this when I fire up the grill:
1999 Beringer Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve Bancroft Ranch

Maybe another bottle later when it is time to get in the spa Wink

I have not seen this bottle in our market.

I enjoy both the Seasmoke and the Sweeney Canyon a great deal.
