You are such an easy mark! Wink

Good provenence and a very fair transaction. It's always good when everything turns out positive. Smile


Big Grin... just make sure ALL of your wines are not ready within the same 2 year drinking window. Wink

I bought 7 of these on release and tried one and cellared 6. DO NOT drink this Burg for 7-10+ years as it is a closed mess right now but has tons of upside.

P.S. I have no idea why the LCBO gets so much of this wine when annual production is between 30-50 cases. Confused

Yes see post on page 5. 25 year old kabinett at that price seems a no brainer.

Baird,

I agree. I won't touch them for awhile. I will have to put them in the back of the cellar to ensure that it doesn't fall victim to a drunken adventure of gregarious bottle popping.


Now....where's that Screwpull?

The 05 Jacques Prier Beaune Greves is reduced to under $50 now. If you bought at the original price, you might consider returning them for refund and instant buy-back.

Just took a chance on an '03 Staglin at a local wine shop selling at below release price (could be an omen). Last bottle in the shop.

Same shop had 3 (375ml) of '96 Baumard QdC for $47.
