anyone had the Faiveley?

No but across the street from Ruchottes and at that price - tough to resist, so I jumped on one.

[Ken Katz]

bit on the Graff, have two chinese food nights coming up soon, so I will pop one then.

I think I have seen it 4 or 5 times tonight. I am about to give up for the night.

[Scot Hasselman]

So many dogs....

[Brandon Tai]

sigh...kinda POed I missed the Heitz and Mayacamas, but can't be a slave to F5 all night. Oh wells...

[Tyler Rico]

Not sure how I got lucky but I happened to take a quick glance while driving and saw the 01 mayacamas. Pulled off to the side of the road and ordered 4 right off my iphone.

[gene keenan]

CHAMBOLLE MUSIGNY LA COMBE D`ORVEAU

[Mark F r a n k s]

Faiveley Chamb Musigny - yea or nay?

[J Sullivan]

01 Jordan lasted about 4 seconds.

Snagged a bottle. First purchase of the night.

[Tom Moore]

CT notes on the 01 Mayacamas dont sound too promising. Anybody have a reference point?

I know they are supposed to be cellared for 20+ years before drinking but this wine is either REALLY shut down or maybe an off year for them? Overall I have loved 01 in Napa.

[N. Justl]

I bit on 1 Mayacamas. Thought it was worth a shot with free shipping

[JeffWisman]

Mayacamas up again. I was gonna buy until I read the CT notes. Now I'm on the fence...

[Jim Karegeannes]

Finger twitching on the keyboard here as well, but oh, those CT notes.

[David Rudd]

I tried a couple of Mayacamas. CT notes are troubling, but I don't see it often.

[D Jorgenson]

Is this going on today as well?

[Brandon Tai]

Looks like it. It's a Festivus miracle!!!

I also bit on a few Mayas...we'll see how they do.

As always you pays your money and you takes your chance. However, you're stacking up two track records, Mayacama's and John Gilman's, against a bunch of random comments from people who may not even be aware of what to expect stylistically, and may not know that they are opening the bottle well before it hits its prime drinking window. Those odds were good enough for me last time around, and I'm in again this time. It's worth it just so I have enough bottles to justify opening one early to see what I've got.

Looks like they are going through them again, see of the Mondavi pops up again for a few seconds.

[D Jorgenson]

I completely missed the Mondavi. What was the offer?

Exactly

I've had the 01 before and it's great. I'm not worried about a few naysayers on CT.

[cjsavino]

$65 for 2001 reserve cab.

Strong BerserkerDay warmup. Analyze the flaws in your refresh game (I was F5'ing with my left hand--weak), and get ready for the big one.

[D Jorgenson]

In case anyone was curious about by latest thinking, I'm hoping they flip off this burg before I have to leave for the office. Carry on.

[Frank Smith]

I was at my daughter's concert last night, so missed on the Mayacamas. Maybe it will come back up. The 2006 Lafarge Beaune Grèves was up last night and is back up now.

Or you could write a bit of HTML and JavaScript to do the work for you

Are those the names of the new Rhys Vineyards? I am definitely going long on the JavaScript Pinot. I hear it is structured with little filler.

[Steve Gautier]

An offer with free shipping on 8 or more is up so it looks like Festivus has ended. Time to get some work done.

[Caleb Kong]

Did anyone else bite on the 04 Faiveley Les Marchais? Not too many CT notes on it...

[Caleb Kong]

Also, looks like the Festivities are back and kickin'?

edit: '87 Jordan is up for free shipping.

[Jorge Henriquez]

They also spilled the bottle of Kahlua......the smell there must be MUY intoxicating!

[Frank Smith]

I'm still seeing the Ross Estate Grenache. ??
