Itās probably too old but opportunities to try older vintages are scarce, so why not?

Have high hopes that 21 suits his style better than 19 and 20
I have a few bottles of the '21 Riesling. Any prognosis on when to open?
If you have a few open one now. A bit of air helps IMHO.

Havenāt had this before so thought I would add one to the cellar.
6x Patricia Green Cellars 2022 Freedom Hill Vineyard Pinot Noir (bought a few a month or so ago and need to remember to open one to try one of these days soon).
Nothing! Baby steps.

Magnum of Canon 2019
3 bottles of F. Sobrero 1964. This was the vineyard purchased by Mauro Mascarello of Monprivato fame, and now are a main ingredient for the small super cuvee. Ca do Morrissio.

Nice haul.
Im a newish customer who initially hesitated due to shipping, but they are A+ to deal with and wines arrive via Fedex quicker than Iād imagined. A fan.

Since I keep recommending backfills on 2016 and 2019 Bordeaux, putting my money where my mouth is (again) for a case and half:
2019 Gruaud Larose
2019 Giscours
2019 Poujeaux
2019 Lagrange
2019 Haut Bages Liberal
2019 dāIssan
2019 Langoa Barton
Some of these are a reload. Most expensive was $65, the Gruard Larose. All others under $45. Crazy considering some of these are Classified Growth.
@ToddFrench - your turn!
