I would hold until 1/27. The Grassl is a great glass and Chris offers excellent customer service. I hope Chris offers something like the new tasting glasses. Hint...Hint.....

6b of 04 Bollinger Grande Annee Rose. I really love rose champagne and already drank a case of this. (reload)

Followed very tightly by
Rene and Vincent Dauvissat
Roulot
Raveneau

congratulations Eric.

just one bottle of 2004 Dom Perignon Rose at a good price

Kevin,
I brought the internal temperature in an oven to 115 degrees 265 degree oven and then did a hard sear in an iron pan

first of 2020
4b 2015 Mousse et Fils, Champagne Special Club Rose de Saignee Brut

great note. Drouhin Mouches always over performs in both red and white

Dan this is a very moving tribute to a life cut too short

Domaine du Fontsainte Gris de Gris Corbieres Rose.
Everything I want in a rose at or under $15.00 a bottle.

Coudert Fleurie Clos de la Roilette Cuvee Tardive- always a beauty and it ages.
approx $24.00

we're doing cassoulet as well.
Starting the duck confit today.

Robert Chevillon did very well in 2008.
I also have the Roumier Cras and not touching them for a while

looking forward to this event.

and Lulu just celebrated birthday 102! Not touching mine for a few years, How was it on day 2?

tasted the 2012 Chetillons at the Skurnick Champagne tasting and thought it was great.
Bought a 3 pack at $135.00 a bottle. Opened one of my stash and I thought it improved with air over the 2 hours it was opened.

A couple bottles of 2008 Rayas

I bought a couple too.

nice vin guard valise

Namasake would be great too.

doing it on a Monday is a bad idea. I believe it will hurt sales.

Nola,

Terrible, generally.

HDH consolidates to my offsite storage at MWC in Clifton NJ. I was quoted $10.00 total for 3 champagne magnums. Of course you must not be in a rush for delivery. YMMV

I "caved" at both HDH and K&L
K&L has Black Friday deals? Whaa?

it wasn't a Black Friday deal it was from an insiders advantage. Price was $46.00 per bottle less than the next wine-searcher pro bottle.
2017 Patrick Piuze Chablis Les Clos $96.99

I "caved" at both HDH and K&L

Marc, I loved the note on the 1998 Tempier- delicious wine and seems like it can stay there for a very long time. No signs of decline still both so youthful and complex.

I am a fan of this producer, their wines still represent good value.
opening 05's is still too soon even at the village level.

this is my go to stuffing. it takes some work but it is worth the trouble

update: I called the 415 946 1300 and spoke to Sarah Parker. She apologized for the delay. My wine is still pre-arrival and should deliver 2/20 or before.
Fingers crossed

I ordered from them in June- 3 bottles of 08 Cristal champagne. I emailed to arrange for shipping Monday morning and got an automatic response that they'll get back to me in 24 hours. Called today and left a voice mail message and emailed. No response yet.

you can buy now and hold in your wine cellar.

bought 08 Dom and 08 Cristal. Never owned Cristal before this vintage.
Waiting on Comtes

was there more than one 750ml bottle of each wine? Mostly one of each. Which I worried wouldn’t work before we started, but with everyone being experienced and conscientious about it and taking just 1.5 ounces or so, plus so many bottles that most people didn’t get to them all, it strangely worked ...

Found this one (while heavily branded by one company) to be fairly informative.
Joselito is by far the best branded Iberico ham in Spain.
Cutting takes a very sharp thin knife and skill
While joselito is good - I think that Cinco Jotas is better....

I respectfully disagree.

I like this one. the metal ones are not as comfortable to hold

I was checking the wines being poured at La Fete tomorrow and while I was disappointed to see that Roederer won't be pouring Cristal I was beyond excited to see that they are pouring a 2012 Starck Brut Nature Rose! A quick trip to wine-searcher showed that it is not yet available in the US but alon...

Hi Brian, Thanks for the note. A friend served a bottle of this to a few of us blind recently and guesses were all over the place, ranging from sauvignon blanc to dry riesling. For me, it had an unusual combination of grassiness and waxiness and I alighted on Loire chenin, as much out of confusion ...
