I wanted to be post 13,000 while enjoying lot 17! I did not like it at all for a few years, now it is fantastic after a five hour decantš·

Remember the good old days during covid where this offer would have been priced at $199 and sold out in 10 minutes? Now, cricketsā¦ Sweet memories

If they told me it was reject Hillside Select, Iād jump in. Realistically, Clos du Val Hirondelle maybeā¦Stagās Leap Fay or SLV. Iāve seen both go into discount outlets recently. Chimney Rock makes less sense since only their Tomahawk label is up in that price range. Clif Lede has been guessed out to bulk a bit but only their super high end in the $300+ range would fit, the others are a bit lower and below the $150 threshold. The 1990s hint really narrows down the possibilities. My best guess is Stagās Leap Fay. Maybe the barrels that didnāt hit the mark and in this market they are having trouble moving back vintages even landing on LastBottleWines quite a bit.

SLV fits fairly wellā¦> $200/btl, 100% Cabernet, 100% NFO
Likely rule out Poetry, and Hall.
Iām swimming in so much Cabernet left from de Negoce early days here too. This looks compelling.
