You're always ahead of the rest of us...

I shouldn't have been with this one.

Well, thanks for taking one for the team Board-O.

I'm glad to hold.

How was the Ripassa?

Yes

The Ripassa showed very well. I enjoyed this vintage much more. A richer mouth feel and better balance. One of the better vintages for this wine, IMO.

All were showing well.
The `99 Poderina BdM, however, was singing. Very nice, and certainly in its` `drinking window` now.
