No, not this time WEc. Vinfolio actually. I've avoided them in the past, due to pricing a little more than many. However for these two, they were pretty competitive, and I'd been eyeing the Fuligni Reserva for some time now.

The 2001 Fuligni Riserva is not expected in Ontario until early 2008, regardless of the fact that the product code is already in the LCBO system.

Here is how my collecting has shaped up so far, half way through October:
6 x 2003 Torbreck The Steading
1 x 2003 Cain Five
1 x 2002 Clark-Claudon Cabernet
6 x 2004 Shafer Stags Leap one Point Five Cab.
4 x 2004 Shafer Merlot
4 x 1997 A. Brero Poderi Roset Barolo
3 x 2001 Roberto Voerzio Barolo Vigneto Brunate

Bought some 2003 Sassicaia from Zachys this past week for $110 per bottle, and 2004 Oreno for $59. Not that I exactly needed them or that they are great QPR's, but when am I ever going to see Sassicaia for that price again?
