should have bought more. Too late to ask?
Omg…how cool! When did you drink it, and how was it?
not long after. Pretty damn good. Those were the days. I found this receipt recently cleaning out a drawer.
And this one also:
that was one hell of a wine, too.
Back then $250 was a La Tache price and more than double any of the first growths. Who could have predicted where we would be 25 years later.
yep. I was reaching to buy it at that price. 90 La Tâche on release in 1993 was $233, about the same price.
They spelled your name wrong. I’d never buy from them again.
Not too long ago, I had a client send off 6 bottles each of ‘85 Jayer Cros Parantoux, Echezeaux and Richebourg to auction. I guarantee they were authentic, but I also guarantee they didn’t hammer for $250!
could buy a house for the current value of those 18 bottles!
You save any of that birth year 83 rav clos for me alan!?
25 years ago if you and I had cleaned out BelAir 20/20, the world would have thought us fools- and we would be living like kings now.
A cooper friend traded Henri a new barrel–then around $600-- for six bottles of 89 Cros P. At that time he felt like …what? only six bottles??
