Re: 1989 Chateau Lynch Bages, the greatest wine ever produced....

Nicola and I met JM Cases's daughter in Montreal and she said the '89 Lynch was her father's favorite vintage. I've had it over 100 times. It is the most perfect wine ever produced. It is the epitome of lead pencil cedar cassis Pauillac.

Re: President Trump

Seriously, Joe could have had a nice strong James Polk like one term presidency, saved us from Trump, and moved back to Delaware with a nice four year job well done. But no.

This Trump prosecution stinks to high heaven, it is going to backfire against the left.

Re: Next Spring: 25th anniversary celebrations in France and Washington DC.

I like it Mr Flaneur, my trial schedule is a little tricky into March 2025, usually we have done the annual BWE conventions around April 1st, very preliminarily and without looking up religious holidays etc I’m wondering how Thursday April 3 to Sunday April 6, 2025, looks for the Trump USA conventio...

Re: ‘Best of the best’ first growths dinner

A brilliant report from Mr. Flaneur as usual. 1988 Lafite en magnum. OMG. Stefan, that 88 Lafite sneaks up on you, more than once it has been under the radar but then as the night evolves, as appears to have been the case with the London tasting, it demonstrates its otherworldliness. It is one of my...
