Told myself I wouldn’t buy any wine in Paris. Ha.

Salima & Alain Cordeuil Altitude - 350m 2017 (bdb) and 320m 2015 (bdn). Anyone know this producer at all? Few mentions on here but not much specific. Organic, natural-sounding.

Abreu allocation
What was the pricing like? Going to Paris and Beaune soon and wondering if I should budget in some significant wine purchases.
@Phil_M We are so thrilled to share this new vintage with you! Remember to Live

Mixed case of Enfield including 2 bottles of the XB06 2018 Jura style Chardonnay.
3 x 2010 López de Heredia Tondonia Reserva Blanco
1 x 2001 López de Heredia Tondonia Gran Reserva
1 x 1990 Champagne Fleury Millésimé (2016 Disgorgement)
Cool thing about the last two is that they’re from BBR and they’ve had them in the cellar since release. Time value of money, storage space and the £95 cost of each they lost money on those two!
The BC were slightly below cellartracker valuation but nothing crazy. I wasn’t searching very hard just happened to pop into one store near our hotel.
1 x 2018 Eyrie Vineyards Sisters Vineyard Pinot Noir.
Very much enjoyed a bottle with some friends a week ago and had to pick up another for some ageing. I don’t know Oregon pinot noir very well but this was a real eye-opener.
How so?

It was elegant and weightless with really pure fruit, some earthiness, and a smidge of something like iron. I didn’t know what to expect but Eyrie is on my radar now for sure.

Enfield mixed bag from the release….love John’s wines. Failed at keeping to a case.
Does Enfield do an early release to longtime buyers?

There’s a pre-release with guaranteed allocations. I’m not necessarily a long time buyer but purchase pretty consistently with each release.
2007 Rivers Marie Summa Vineyard and restocked some Cruse Tradition Rose.

Regretted not buying more Falkenstein 2021.
So bought another 3x Gisela and 3x Mia kabinett’s.

Allocations are a little tighter here in the US than in the past so count yourself lucky to have that freedom.

Meyer Nepal + mags

Being able to buy from Germany (and most of Europe really) certainly is a blessing!
But they are also becoming harder to get here.

These Riesling mags are so annoyingly long in my cellar.
