What is YOUR most recent wine purchase? (Part 2)

19 Trapet Chambertin

Thanks—I’m excited to try them! Have you opened up the 2019 DRC 1er? Debating if I should drink it now or wait a decade.

2021 roilette fleurie
2020 roilette griffee

2012 Henri Billiot & Fils Brut Grand Cru Essence de Billiot - a premium Billiot bottling I had never heard of, 300 bottles produced. No reviews on WB or Cellartracker.

2019 Bevan Ontogeny, $99 at a local retailer struck me as a pretty good sale. They are offering the 2018 at the same price, so if I like it may return to pick up more of both.

2001 Torres Mas La Plana. For just over $40, I felt like I stole it.

I had some recent purchases delivered last week, '08 Comtes rose and '20 Girardin Bourgogne Blanc Eclat de Calcaire. The Girardin 12 bottle OCB has the most compact design I have ever seen, it is only slightly larger than the Comtes 6-pack with those damn gift boxes. I believe I mentioned earlier in this thread that the Girardin is steal at $35/bottle. Eric Guido posted a glowing review of this wine on CT today.

Pierre Girardin is a real talent. I’ve been very impressed up and down the range, and the Bourgogne is a pretty great value.

Finalized orders of 2021 dry Riesling from a few sources featuring the usual suspects - Emrich-Schonleber, Schafer Frohlich, Lauer, Von Schubert, and a smattering of others.

Trying to buy less and less every year, and largely succeeding!

Technically not ā€˜purchased’ today (rather, over the past year) but picked up, so ā€˜official’ now.

Good reminder—just reached out to them to get my in-stock list to arrange a delivery

6 packs of moderately priced (mostly) white wines that will deliver excellent drinking either now or 10 years from now (or longer):
2020 Pierre girardin eclat Blanc
2010 Lopez tondonia (red)
2021 Keller vdf (well, one six for home, one for storage)
2021 Keller RR
2021 Lauer stirn

Some 2020 emrich schonleber from the flatiron liquidation - halenberg spatlese and halenberg gg

Did a mixed case from the Bucklin release.

Also did what will be my last Rhys purchase, the 2018 Horseshoe Syrah.

1x 1994 Chateau Rayas
1x 1982 Mouton

Not my usual fare, but you only turn 40 once!

Glad I tried this first - not worth the tariff imo.
