You are soooo late to this party. WBA was formed years ago and I am a charter member. Do not listen to Salil - he is way too young. I’m still holding on to my bottle of 1973 Mouton that I bought on release as one of my earlier forays intpo this stupidity, and you will have to pry it from my cold, dead fingers if you want it some day.
You’ll know you are completely hopeless when, in order to keep your cellar inventory stable, you stop entering bottles into CellarTracker.
Love those Produttori wines, but really do not get the idea of a solid case of each cru. That’s a whole lot of one year/one producer. Oh wat…I did nearly the exact same thing with 2001 Donnhoff, and have not regretted a single bottle (other than all the corked Leistenberg Kabinett).
I have never collected anything ever before … ever. Well, except for maybe the 298 Dead shows that I went to, and the 1,000s of other concerts that I attended. Oh yeah, quite a few CDs. Lps and tapes (cassettes, dat and Reel to reel) over the years, but that’s not really collecting.
