The Little Wine is a little beauty. Drink it young and fresh or keep for 5-10. Your choice.

Cheers
Jeremy

Thank you Jeremy. I will add these to my list.

Never heard of these. What does the numbers after "little Wing" signify? The number is the Release, so "Little Wine #8" is the 8th release of the non-vintage wine. Just received the 2017 HD and LW#8 in San Diego, but will be a few months before I try one. Opened 2 of the 2016 HD and one LW#7 in the...

2009 available at bountyhunterwines for 199.99. Discount of $25 with code HAPPYBDAY25
No idea of how solid this retailer is, caveat emptor.

Don't see it. Guess sold out.

YLee

Since 2018 is said to have much more supply I'm hoping the price will be better. But who knows what prices will be like 10 years later.

YLee

Great wines and great notes. Truly jealous!

YLee

More fresh, 57 plots used & 3% more Chard used. Fans can expect "a unique Cristal"

Mine finally arrived, after multiple days of 95+ temps here. If I would have known they'd be shipped this late, I wouldn't have ordered. Opened 2 different bottles and both were drain pours.

heat damaged or you didn't like the taste of his wines?

YLee

Thx for the note. Looking forward to trying mine out soon.

Lots of '08 and '10 Louis Michel offered for $30. Solid price.

Yup! I jumped on that.

I bought my EuroCave Premiere “M” about 9 months ago. I have been having ongoing problems with several of the sliding shelves-they became very difficult to pull out, I have to forcefully pull them out and then remove the bottles, remove the sliding shelf, perform an adjustment and then put the shel...

You can bring wine. Not sure about a case. Buy water on the way to hotel. During checkin i got about 24 vouchers for free water bottles. Im not sure if its because Im a Diamond member. Food is expensive there. Pizza pie $80.

YLee

Mine is scheduled for delivery tomorrow. I already wish I ordered more.

YLee

I dont drink champagnes frequently but when I do it's usually Perrier Jouet Blanc de Blancs.

Thanks Jeremy for the notes. Always appreciate your data on WB & CT.

Really, Mr. Lee. Are you enjoying this?

Are you? Some of you guys act like they dont deal with different natural events ever in their history of making wines. As if I'm wishing them pain and suffering. If you dont like my joke, block me or move on. Just as I'm doing with you.

Chill out.
That's actually the problem.

I see on WS their address is different from what I saw few months ago. Now it shows as 35-24 78th street, Jackson Heights NY but thats an apartment building.

Hate to highjack the thread but has anyone had any Domaine Maume Bourgogne rouge lately? I love that producer but haven’t tasted their entry level in a few years. Always seemed reasonably priced to me.

I enjoyed their 47 N.

1990 DRC La Tache
I was lucky enough to taste this great wine at the domain a few years ago. It followed a splendid La Tâche 1999.

Both amazing wines!

YLee

Is there any other trend but up? This is WB after all. What is really interesting is the cognitive distortion for what a "deal" price is. I say to myself, "Man that Rousseau Chambertin at $1,200.00 a bottle, WHAT A DEAL!" Other humans should look at us as aliens.... Well, that goes for anything in ...

The word "fresh" is used a lot to describe 2018 bdx. What does fresh refer to? More fruit forward? Less complex? Less oak? Drinking fresh squeezed grape juice? Anyone know?

YLee

Need to head over to Tampa soon

YLee

few 2014 Marchand-Tawse Mazis Chambertin

I'm in the $350 range

YLee

Theorize must not be selling. I think I've seen this listed for the past 6 or 7 months.

YLee

Let's wait and see what others say.

Anyone try Paetra's latest release yet?

For some reason I got another email stating parcel has been voided. Wonder why.

YLee

Received tracking info today. It came from IShip.com. i almost deleted the email thinking it was SPAM.
Looking forward to trying these.

YLee

Agree on the boring options.

YLee

For the most part without going into details (because I'm too lazy right now), I decant vintage champagnes for 30mins to 60mins. As someone mentioned above, the bubbles in champagnes lasts much longer than most people think.

YLee

I said this in another thread. Martha stewarts red stems at macy's. When on sale its $10 for 12.

Thx for the notes. Hope my '99 Bollinger GA will be good as yours!

Maybe already discussed but looks like they charge tax on all sales now.

2017 PYCM BB (was only allocated 4, for now )

Getting an early start on weekend wine shopping?

YLee

I thought the autographed bottles were interesting but I didnt request any.

YLee

A six-pack of Leflaive Combettes '85, a bottle of Chartreuse Jeune from the late '50s, and a bag of unknown Burgundy from the 50s/60s (one is a negociant bottled Pommard Epenots but the rest is a crap shoot). Also 3x Talbot Caillou Blanc 1986. 'cause why not. Just out of curiosity. How do you end u...

Happy ending

Most, if not all, small wine storage units seem to be sized for Bordeaux-type bottles. Can anyone recommend a good wine fridge that will accommodate German and Alsace bottles, without losing too much storage space? Also, what about half bottles (Sauternes and German)? The Eurocave looks nice, would...
