Where we eating? flirtysmile

11

2000 Mordoree Lirac Reine de Bois…hope it’s still got legs. UPDATE - turned out really nice, tannins fading, but fruit still strong! Happy days at $10/btl!

12

Tomorrow, I wil try a 2007 Quivet Syrah Las Madres along with hanger steak from Flannery but I better find Bill’s recipe’ first. I know I printed it.

13

Saturday with Saints v Cowgirls i am considering a DC from the 1980’s. RRT or Gravely Meadow will be the choice.

14

So…you’re taking him to his Mom’s? :wink:

You should definitely drink a Ballbuster then. Fitting.

15

[rofl.gif] [rofl.gif] Dude, you need to give a warning. Almost spilled my drink over my keyboard.

16

2006 Saxum Booker right now. Who knows what’ll happen after that. The weather heads on tv say that Maryland is in for about two feet of snow in the next 36 hours. I predict some serious cellar thinning will follow, but I have not come up with a strategy for it yet.

17

2003 Rieussec as I type this (preceded by some KJ Grand Reserve Chard - meh). I’m helping my 71 year old Mother move tomorrow, so consumption of wine is not very likely. I have high hopes for Sunday however. [berserker.gif]

18

1959 Lafite is over the hill.

Now when are we getting together?

19

Charlottesville is dead-on center of the snow a’headin your way. On the plus side it’s perfect for snowball making, but there is a shitload of it. Time to dig deep, in your driveway and your wine reserves. Thinning out some older Belgians here.

Nothing wrong with that! Enjoy the snow this weekend.
