Re: Buying 2020 futures is hard to justify.

I am not impressed by the 2020 notes, so far. I bought a total of about 8 cases of 2019. I won't by GC's...Lynch Bages, Pichon Baron, Leoville Poyferre, Leoville Barton and some good Pomerols and Saint Emilion wines. Half-cases mostly. I'm 59 ! That is enough.

Re: HWSRN: 2003 Pontet Canet is "spectacular."

I have 9 of the 2003's. I agree they need time to shine.

I also have:
2x1996

5x2004
12x2005
