Josh, good price, $10 less than what I paid for mine from Garagiste, but I would without reservations go for the 06 at $60. I only went for 6 of the 06 because of the times, but that’s a wine worth buying by the case, and I have not even tasted it.

I do have to say that I had the 05 and liked it very much FWIW.

I also paid about $10 more for my 05, c’est la vie :slight_smile:

I like the 04 slightly more for current consumption than the 05, but I won’t venture to guess which will be better down the road. I haven’t had the 06 yet.

Eh. That one is only 93 points. The other two were 95 and 97. [tease.gif]

Pointwhore [gheyfight.gif] Cris, please read Don C.'s review of the 06, makes me drool.

If you want any, I will get rid of mine to you for $49, just drop me an email...daniel@grapesthewineco.com

I did not care for it, when I tried it. And I have enjoyed previous vintages.

Daniel, if you are talking about the 06, I will take 6 bottles.

Thanks,
Otto

Interesting that you didn’t like it Dan – what was to dislike? Michelle and I just drank a bottle a couple of weeks ago and found a lot to like so I’m curious about your experience.

Cheers,
Josh

Did you rate it 62 points? [diablo.gif]

I found the 2005 lacking the richness and intensity that I am used to from this wine.

We have just 22 btls left, FYI. But happy to unload. I realize many have liked this wine and I may be in the minority. I have enjoyed many vintages of this stuff and look forward to tasting the 2006.

Believe it or not, 2 years later and this is back at winex for $50. Anyone had this more recently?
