Very little really.
But, I had 2 wines of note: 1985 La Croix de Gay, Pomerol 2002 Marquis de Riscal, Rioja Reserva Both beautiful in their own blessed ways. BirD *********************** Feed your mind: train your brain daily with at least a 1/2 bottle of wine *********************** |

Tanglenet, We were having a family/friends gathering, and the Sav. Blanc was the reception wine making the rounds. |

Last night:
2005 Chateau Pipeau. Decanted for two hrs. Very good but way to early to drink (as I expected). I think it needs at least 5-7 years. |

Wow, how was the Laville ? Had the 1985 some 10 years ago, simply the best wine i drank in my life so far. Slainte Mhath! |

Moselelle, you are indeed a man of great taste.  It was as special as the other bottles I have enjoyed, and agree with you. It is one of the finest wines in the world in fine years. I bought the 2000 and 2003 also. Did you pick any of these up? |

No, still waiting for the win in the Lottery. Such thing like Laville remains an exception in my wine experience, it's not the kind of wine i pick up every year. Fieuzal is more up to my wallet. Slainte Mhath! |

I have had several Smith Haut Lafitte White recently that were lovely. |

A 375ml of 2003 Rieussec for dessert last night. Very young and closed but will be amazing in 7-10 years IMO. I have lots of this wine and figured I would sacrifice on in the name of science. I wish I didn't.

Tang, it is so non Sauvignon Blanc like to me. I'm guessing it is due to the Musque clone. Escape and I always seek this wine out! |

Agree on SHL, allthough i generally prefer Graves with a higher proportion of Semillon, i cannot resist the charm of SHL. A wine you could buy blind year after year. Slainte Mhath! |

We visited their new winery in Sebastopol a couple of weeks ago. They had just bottled the 07. It's still primary but very good. We picked up a couple, but I'm thinking of buying more now that it's getting warmer. "When I drink, I think; and when I think, I drink."

Thanks for the heads-up on the '07. I tried to buy a case today off their web, but a message said to call winery.  |
