What is YOUR most recent wine purchase?

[Neal.Mollen]

05 Lambrays
05 Clos de la Marechale

I picked up a few of the 375 Marechale

I asked for all of these. Got none. Too slow. Oh well.

It was a lot of money for a .375, but basically a third of what a 750 sells for now, for a very nice 15 year old burg. Probably should have asked for them all too!

They were a steal, and I never have enough .375s.

[Yao C]

2006 Jean-Marc Pillot Chevalier-Montrachet for $250, which seemed a lot fairer than the >$500 asking prices I've seen for the 2017

[Sc0tt F!tzger@ld]

A case of 2018 Il Poggione (Proprietá Franceschi) Brancato Toscana IGT, our favorite rose. And with a $50 off promo code from wine.com, even better!

Exactly, I wish more Burgundy Producers would bottle their wines in .375s.

I ordered 12x halves of Mugnier Clos de la Marchale for 6 vintages running now.

[William Kelley]

I also just bought some .375s - of Ledru's NV Brut. Won't be many more releases, surely...

Also:
3x 2005 Figeac
1x 1995 Coulée de Sérrant (as if it's not enough rolling the premox dice in Burgundy) and another of the Coulée de Sérrant sweet wine of the same vintage
1x 1992 Pothier-Rieusset Pommard Rugiens
and a bottle of 1960s Campari

[A Songeur]

Just bought my first 2019:
6 Reignots, 3 CSJ, 3 Rugiens, 1 Clos Vougeot, 1 Bonnes Mares, 1 Grands Echezeaux.
Hope the quality is good...

Does Campari change in the bottle with age?

[Mark Golodetz]

Going back for more Right Bank Bordeaux. In addition to some wines mentioned in an earlier post, added a vertical of L’Eglise Clinet, a three liter bottle of Cheval Blanc 2016, and Rossignol Trapet Latriciere 2012 and Chambertin 2013.

Not since Rolland took over as consultant

Almost all of my non-champagne purchases for the last 2 years have been in 375 (and a lot of the champagne purchases too). Picked up some 2008 Marechale a couple of years ago for a song and they've been terrific. Hard to keep my hands off them.

Some people do believe there's evolution of complexity in the bottle. Also, the formula and ingredients were different back then. Plus it's cool.

[William Kelley]

Does Campari change in the bottle with age?

I think it's more that how is has been made has changed over time. Generally these sorts of things have not improved. I rarely drink spirits but recently opened a Grand Marnier from the 1950s, with the intention of making crèpes suzette, and it was just too good. So much more complex than the contemporary stuff.

[Larry Stein]

When my father passed away in 2007, I cleared out his wine and liquor closet. There were only a couple of worthwhile wines. The one great bottle I found in his liquor stash was an unopened bottle of Crown Royal that given the labeling, he would've had to have purchased in Canada. He hadn't been to Canada since the family moved to California in 1960. It was an astounding bottle of whisky.

With free shipping, I’ll buy one - we can’t seem to keep enough Rosé on hand these days and every board recommended Rosé has been delicious thus far. What was the promo code?

Very understandable. It has been reliably fine indeed in my experience.

[Pat K]

Darren Delmore Pinot Noir Central Coast, 2019. Per label, 3 barrels produced. First tasted Delmore a few years ago at Falltacular and I've been a customer ever since. He also makes Syrah, but that is part of a later release as I understand it.

Cheers!

[Tomás Costa]

1997 Terras de Tavares Dão
1969 Collares Viúva Gomes Reserva

For my next purchase I'm considering a line up from Gachot-Monot (1er cru + village), and giving a try to a small Bordeaux producer (Les Trois Petiotes).

1990 RC

Congrats! Definitely one of my top few dream wines.

Thanks, between being pretty fortunate not to be overly affected by the pandemic, not spending money on planned home renovation things and a little bit of luck in the market, I’ve been in the position to be buying when certain friends have been needing to sell, so it has been a bit of a win/win situation; they don’t have to worry about auction fees, fraudulent buyers, or presumably taxes (although that’s just a guess and none of my business/concern). So far seems to be working out well for everyone. A few months ago I likely would never had access to some of these wines at reasonable prices.

[Andrew K.]

when certain friends have been needing to sell

Nice. That's always a great deal. I was lucky to score some DRC in a similar situation a few years ago.

[Andrew K.]

picked up some St Emilion value Crus.

‘12-‘17 vertical of Momento Mori; I had always wanted to try this wine and this seemed like a great introduction.

[A1ex H]

2016 Haut Brion. Will need time but looking forward to it

[Jeff_M.]

Walter Scott chardonnay's. In for a mixed case. Gonna have to Pobega a few of these and probably buy more before they sell out

[Andrew K.]

2012 LT + Ech
2018 Greer Mag
2017 Domaine Vincent Girardin Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes (another case, this one is yummy! and a decently priced 1er)
