Wine Berserkers - international wine social media, online community, and discussion

I have no idea what I will open in 5 years.
I do know, for sure, a great wine night or a few great nights will happen when Covid is behind us.

I had cut off buying from B-21 in 2011. I don't recall why and they deliver to my LBK home on Thursdays. They do have 2014 Ulysse Collin Champagne Les Roises at a good price $159.99 a bottle on pre-arrival due to arrive 10/26 I bought 3 bottles and a bottle of liquor total $541.00. They refused to d...

1/2 off bottles under $100... What do you like?

If the wine can complement both vegetarian and meat friendly dishes, even better.

this list linked above is from July 2019. I would ask for a more current wine list

I go by row A-H and position within the row in my LaCache ie, LC_A12 LaCache row A line 12. the wine is double deep but I don't put a position on them.

boycotting now at $190.00

just pre salt and left unwrapped for 1-2 days in the fridge for me

winebid is where mine go Has this been successful for you with sub $40 bottles? I guess I look at Winebid as a way to move higher end stuff, but I’d be happy to send them a few cases if they can sell. at prices under $30.00 I believe there is a $5.00 additional fee charge. I did sell a bunch of val...

2017 Comtes Lafon Meursault Clos de la Barre
2014 Emmanuel Rouget Echezeaux

the newer bottlings are way better than the older 2001-2006 bottles. All I have will ever be all I have.

I've bought the N from Envoyer and Crush.

on pre-arrival- you don't have them yet
I bought from the 2019 "N" from Crush as well. Crush estimates arrival to be either February or March 2021

I bought a bottle from wine.com using the retailmenot 20% link today.
no other codes would work

I recently had the 1997 Clos de Beze from Prieure Roch and it was a WOW wine. Happy to hear that the 93 showed great.

I have been very fortunate to taste all of these and I can strongly recommend all of them. After tasting I bought two full sets.

where did you purchase them Robert?

3b 2017 Mugneret Gibourg Echezeaux. My first 2017 red burgundy purchase. I am too old to even think to drink this at close to full maturity but it was a good price. Good show! I am pulling back big on wines like that too now for the same reason, but I would go after MG Echezeaux if I could even fin...

tonight's cocktail
2oz blanco tequila
1 oz fresh lime juice
1/2oz small hand gum syrup
Shaken with ice poured over fresh ice and topped off with Fever tree grapefruit tonic.
Delicious

Collector and drinker here.

early on it looked like a major 2013 dump. I picked up at few lots below the high estimate but very close to it.

Given how good those films look, the portion seems paltry.

it is served as a primi followed by a meat course

Easy for me. Wine storage place in NJ gets delivery and charges me I think $10 a case. Then instead of having it shipped from delivery storage place, I just drive over and pick it up. I think the only change is that they used to not charge when getting delivery from Chicago. Still a very good deal!...

bought 3b of the 2017 Buisson Charles Meursault Tessons. Didn't check cellartracker first. I already own it from The Bottle List at a cheaper price. oops

August is typically a slow wine month for us. Really? Why? Summer is usually full of wine here, with lazy outdoor lunches rolling into dinner, and bottles all along the way. I don't participate in this thread. Still acquiring wine. But this above is so true. Summer is a great wine time, so is fall ...

opened a 1999 Comtes Rose recently was amazing. I have a hard time accepting the price jump for 2008. Help me justify it.

Mayor says no indoor dining until next year; not good news.
source?

it was in Eater NY

I love the Mousse et fils Special Club Saignee rose. However, I do not see any of the Saignee Rose Les Bouts de la Ville yet in the US.

Setaro and Faella are my 2 faves.
rarely eaten trying to stay lower carb.

2 cases and a tasting bottle of 2015 Soldera IGT. It is hitting in most US markets now, and going really fast as it will be one of the last great vintages under Gianfranco Soldera's rule. Carpe diem!

wow!

here's my data on the 2005 Mugnier NSG Maréchale
Purchased in January 2007 from Garagiste for $65.87 still holding them.
I will look in on them in the next few years. 2005 has so much in reserve

Thanks! Going to using up my freezer foods if I can before the brownouts hit here in SoCal and I lose it all. You can buy today at the sale price and schedule for the future. I'll schedule for delivery after brownout/fire season. Pescatarian with bacon, foie gras, and now Flannery? [dance-clap.gif]...

nice note. I own the 2018 Spatlese, but it is still in CA where purchased awaiting cool weather shipping.
