Vintage of the Millenium!

Sent your note to a buddy who was out there. Ironically, he had missed out on a great event to take his mom on a promised getaway. Figured he deserved the good karma.

Thanks, Will.

Best to buy them now before climate change ruins the terroir.

I have been offered some Jasmin Cote Rotie 1989 and 1990.

I am taking the ones with perfect fills, but there are two bottles of 1989 and one bottle of 1990 with slightly lesser ones. Color looks extremely good.

They are in the UK, but merchant can help organize shipping. PM me if interested and will send photos.

They went quickly

It seems odd but if anybody is available for wine searching in the west coast of Florida it seems Total has a bunch of 2010 tondonia Blanco.

Buy me a bottle!

They have been at every total wine in Florida for over a month now.

Im arriving at ftlauderdale in like 13 days hoping the blancos will still be there

Just order them for pickup and call them to hold it for you, I did this a few weeks ago.

Just got back from New Orleans and came across some possibly tempting DRC to the right person?

Decent list prices; where was that art, Brennans?

22 Val Villaine for 159

Wholesale must have gone up so much on these that they aren’t such a deal anymore at normal retail. This isn’t much less than secondary market. $159 is not out of line but I’m not rushing out to buy at that price.

159 is now tempting?
Isn’t that full retail with huge margins built in?

Val Vilaine has generally been a $200 wine lately. $159 isn’t a steal per se but it’s a good price compared to what it’s available for, were you to be able to buy it.

You can argue it’s not worth it, but 15 dom is $230 a bottle at retail and I’d argue VV is infinitely better.
