I haven't had many 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape but I have enjoyed both the 2004 and 2005 Bastide St. Dominique Chateauneuf du Pape - Secrets de Pignan.

stefan,


Thanks for the notes. I have a bottle of the 2005 Potel Volnay VV standing up in the pantry right now. I'll have to give it a try very soon.

I have been a fan of Jadot Beaune Clos des Ursules for many years. It used to be pretty cheap - less than $40. A recent bottle of the 1999 Jadot Clos des Ursules was just wonderful (probably about 92 points in my book). I bought some of the 2005 but haven't tried any yet.

I'm in at the Westin too. Thanks, Howard!

The Cherry Blossom Festival Parade is on April 4 this year. I think that means the hotel situation will be a little tougher this time. I believe the parade and other related events were on the second weekend in April when had the convention in DC in 2007. Checking on Hotwire the prices for April 2-5...

I'm here and waiting!
