Binnys has it for 109 which includes the flutes... not sure if they have any more in stock.

Crap, no AZ shipping. They should open a Binnys here...

You have a better memory than I do, Java. I could not of guessed which wine I brought.

Hope your bottle shows well.

W+A, that bottle was unforgettable -- easily one of the five best red wines I have tasted. You also brought a white Rhone as I recall. That whole evening was unforgettable.

Java,

Its time for an offline as I can match the 90 with 91,92 or 94 sitting my cellar.

Crisis averted...shipping to my bro in CA. Thanks for the tip jqmunro!

NP AZCat. Glad it worked out for you!

Gonna have to head out to my local Binnys...about 1/4 mile away, and find that Dom.

2008 Pride Cabernet Sauvignon x2
2009 Pride Chardonnay

Im glad I got my Dom order in before everyone decided to stock up

I think you're probably right. Surprised something so good doesn't have an importer but then again there might be lots that we're not seeing here.

At our November blowing-out-old-misfit wines pickup at an annual local retailer tasting:

12 X 2007 La Villa? Montepulciano $2.60/bt (decent structure, kinda thin, crowd pleaser)
12 X 2007 Shaw Emitor Shiraz (???) $8.25/bt (pretty nice with air, not overblown)
12 X 2007 Lake Chardonnay, Sonoma $7.75/bt (big fruity butterball for my sisters and other non-winos who come over)

Nothing stellar, but good QPRs for upcoming holiday entertaining/parties.

Java, I'm glad the wine was so memorable for you.

I have more, and hopefully we can share a bottle again.

Have you begun opening your '05s, Board-O?

Ahhh, then again I was quickly confusing this with the Argyle Nuthouse. Never mind.

Steve's right, I bought the Quince Bettina at a wine shop in Montalcino. The 2004 is still available in several shops there for €45-50, but I cleaned out the last 3 bottles in the lowest priced (€41)one.

You can find various vintages of Vietti barolo in lots of places. I paid €71 for the 2005 Lazzarito.

Ah, good to know. I have never tried this, but a trusted friend added them to my purchase yesterday.

I might try one today.

I've never had a Neely or a Varner Chardonnay that wasn't a truly outstanding wine.
