It's called peer pressure.
Hey, I didn't exactly start it out with magnums of '61 Latour did I?
I feel like a kid on Chrismas Eve right now wondering WHEN I'm going to get an email from Kosta Browne on the release of the 2005 single vineyards today.

Yes, I'm VERY excited.

Thanks MD. Guess I'm 2 weeks behind! 
Fut: What's the price tag on the mags? Same as the 03 listed at 210?

I bought the 750s. Summerhill had the '04 750s, but they have all sold through and only the 03s are left. But Davisville still has '04 750s left.quote:Originally posted by WEc:quote:Originally posted by on the wine:

Unfortunately I can't remember off the top of my head.
Also, don't worry about 750mLs of the 2004 Tig. It's a Vintages Essentials product, so it will make its way all the way through the system eventually (and be available for some time).
Always a great source of info Fut!

Derek- Premier cru still has them on pre-arrival for $65/ bottle. Unless you are hell bent on buying from Zachy's, you could buy an extra 5 bottles from PC at the same price!

They also had magnums for $135.
Last year I stocked up on the Schild 2004 Barossa Shiraz, hoping to make a killing after it was named WOTY or close to it and you know what happened.
But I didn't lose out because I've been drinking them and they are delicious.

Derek,
I've got a couple in lockdown, as I'm reading they should cellar for a number of years. Did you decant it long?

What? No Mouton Bidet???
Let us know how it goes!
IB- They did have the 2005 Mouton Cadet but I passed on it. I posted notes on another 6 inexpensive 2005 Red Bordeaux earlier this year if you're interested.
