Nice! Out of the first growths, Margaux has consistently been my favorite. Of course, I've only had one first growth so there's that.
Whats in your wine cellar?

They were both amazing. Lafite is my fav, followed by Margaux. However, the '95 Mouton is right there with them. Latour is no slouch either.

Dinner in Seattle. I was in charge of wine. How did I do?
Altagracia is one of my favs and some years I actually think it outshines the flagship. Especially QPR wise. Never had the other wine, so can't comment on that
New one. Almost sweet, port like.
You know best on how you did because you got to try both and so did your group!
That being said, the Lassegue that I have had has been good…felt like a good representation of St. Emilion, so if you or others you were with like that particular Bordeaux sub region I'm sure it hit the mark. I feel like it's not an appellation/style that is universally liked or appreciated, though.

It should be though. That region makes great wines that over-deliver for the price. You just have to like Merlot driven wines.
Happy Friday yall
Love those 2000 pichons

This happened to show up at my house today. The Le Macchiole Paleo Rossi and Brion Longhorn Vineyard were all gone.
Just signed up for realm.
Likely to just buy the Bard but let me seek input from the field
2021 The Bard $150 (750 mL)
2022 The Tempest $150 (750 mL)
2023 Fidelio $115 (750 mL)

Bard is always solid, I liked it better when it was less than $100 but it's going to always be good.
Stay away from the 22 vintage
Fidelo, have had a few bottles- definitely not worth the price of admission. Buy a killer white burgundy if you want to spend $100+ on a white wine

Bard is a great wine but I don't think it is worth $150. I used to get a few bottles every year until it went above $100.
Yeah. It seemed a bit pricey but I am curious. So the consensus is a really nice wine but overpriced?
You drink what you like and what fits your budget. Everyone has an opinion but it's you that matters.
Yes Bard was great at $90 but it could still be great at $150 for you too.

Agree, but can be some green/herb notes that come through those wines and that is not a universally appreciated flavor component here in the states.
I have been lacking on my posts here lately! This is a very tasty Champagne. 80% Meunier, 20% Pinot. All of that great flavor you want out of a Meunier, but has that softer side showing as well so it's not just some tart bomb. Very nice body.
Merry Christmas Eve all

Very nice.
Santa juice for assembling gifts tonight
Caldwell, good pull- you don't see a lot of that out there.
I'm friends with their winemaker Marc, he's a cool dude.

Starting the day off right! Merry Christmas everyone!
Merry Christmas all!

California vs France…California won 2-1. Black and blue fruit in the California Syrah. Blackberry and olive in the French Syrah. Merry Christmas all!

How was the '19 Chateau Marie coming along?
The Magdalena was awesome and a big hit with everyone. The CM was a little harsh on first pours but rounded out after some time.
Minha familia from Brasil so had some dessert wines.
The port was a gift from Portuguese hotel but the Sauternes was a LastBottle find. Always liked Sauturnes.
