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

Shop found some more 2023 Mugnier Les Fuees, so I snagged another bottle.

Picked up a couple of the 2017 Esmonin Ruchottes Chambertin on the glowing recommendation from @MChang. Figured it was well worth a shot at that price.

Found a bottle of 2023 Vincent Dauvissat La Forest in one of my favorite shops and decided to support the local economy.

Just arrived. They look like liquid gold, @larry_schaffer.

One of my favourite producers. Bienvenues, Blanchot-Dessus, Dents-de-Chiens and Aubues are yearly must-picks for me.

What’s it going for these days? I grabbed a bunch for $120 a few years ago.

The 2017 was $175 with no sales tax at Mission.
The 2023 is listed at $165 at JJ Buckley but that isn’t private client price, so likely can be had for a little less. I just grabbed a few 2017 for now

Contrary to popular belief, I also sometimes buy Bordeaux :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Also got some champagne and sake for good measure.

You’re in NC, right? If so, not found, someone passed on their allocation. Might have been me :wink: Enjoy!

Ah thank you! Yeah the shop owner said someone probably passed on some.

After not buying anything for a minute, I caved and bought a built-in vertical from Envoyer:

08, 09, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 16 Dujac Morey St. Denis Villages. One bottle each.

I caved and got a couple 2021 Bruno Clair Bonnes Mares. Just too good a price to pass up.

How did you guys get on the “list”? I mean @William_Kelley I was his supporter from the start (2017 Beau Rivage) and I didn’t get any offer??? What up? :man_shrugging:

Thatcher is the sole US importer that I’m aware of. WK doesn’t offer direct allocations AFAIK.
