Last purchase was a week ago - my allocation of 2009 DRC La Tache and Echezeaux.
These are now safely tucked away in my cellar.

I am finding that many 02 St Emilions are drinking very well right now. I have been following this one over the last four years and it appears to be in its window right now. I suspect it will hold at this level for a while and begin to decline. Full disclosure, there are some that would call this thin but I think it is beautifully balanced with lots of interest. It is not a wine that is going to keep for a long time, but there is a lot of pleasure in it right now.

Two of the best wines one could ever buy year in year out.

52

2003 James Leigh Cellars Spofford Station Syrah
2008 Doyenne AIX
1985 E. Guigal Hermitage
2000 E. Guigal Chateauneuf du Pape

It’s been a quiet month.

I need to get the Baker Ranch here STAT, so I can contribute to the virtual tasting thread. For a guy who is just diving in to the French wines, you sure seem to be doing it right with all the Dauvissat and Chidaine you’ve been drinking. [welldone.gif]

54

15 bottles of Kendric PN.

55

2001 Yquem
2003 Yquem
1985 Leoville Las Cases

56

57

A case of .375 lafaurie peyraguey 2004

58

6 magnums of 2010 Tempier Bandol RosĂ© (it’s summer here in Manila after all).

59

[basic-smile.gif] No, Alan. My importer just received a small amount of the Corton, so I thought it best that he
look after his other customers. I’m still not sure that I should be buying these wines any longer,
as the drinking window will probably be beyond mine. Habit, I suppose. [highfive.gif]

Good call. drool I wish I could try more of the 03 Yquem. It ranks as one of the best wines I’ve ever tried.
