me too

i tried about 20 burgundies (some were absolutely fantastic - not the same as a good claret but just as good) and then slept in the car all the way home.

can't wait for 2009, I'm clearing space in my cellar already. All the great producers have already shifted their entire stock apparently.

        that was the old 1945 1947 vintage then (General Chat) - Tombs, Dec 6, 20:27:27
