Wow! I love XXXXXXXXX, and especially their XXXXXXXX. The 19XX was a great vintage. Much better than the 19XX I opened last month.

A good guess, but no. I'm up next week. And Seaquam knows I'm not really a pn guy, and that the only vertical I own is Dead Arm (back to 2000, for those keeping score) so I'm guessing he'll be standing other bottles.
I'm bringing a port.... (no, really??!!)

Despite being a logical assumption, w+a, it is true that the bman is not on our calendar until next week.And I have never forgotten the look of sheer horror on his face long ago when I offered him a glass of Pinot Noir. It is not something I would ever care to repeat. Nor would I dare serve him a wine with bubbles, which would also be a serious [though inexplicable] affront to his sensibilities.
Tonight one of my bride's best friends came to town from the Okanagan to pick up her husband who was returning from a business trip to Australia.
The Dead Arm was WOTN. The Champagne was a bit disappointing, not much mousse and just slightly oxidized, apparently past prime I believe. We also had a bottle of very fine 2011 Weinbach Pinot Gris Altenbourg at the restaurant, a wine I would be happy to buy again.

I'm standing a bunch of things for a bunch of different December events. Besides the 85 La Chapelle:
1981 Lopez de Heredia Rioja Gran Reserva Vina Tondonia
1994 Lopez de Heredia Rioja Gran Reserva Vina Tondonia
1996 Bruno Giacosa Barolo Villero di Castiglione Falletto

Sunny, I've had the 1981 Heredia Tondonia on a couple different occasions and they are absolutely gorgeous. Very subtle, feminine wines in a Burgundian way. Good thing you're standing them in advance. Both times the sediment have been on the extremely fine, dusty side.

Being a Rhone lover, it'll be exciting to compare these gorgeous specimens from different continents. A wide span of vintages, to be sure, but I'm hoping that each will be in its peak window.
