Bordeaux Wine Enthusiasts

Johnson wins in Wisconsin. Bummer.

Jay Winton

I think the trumpster lost quite a bit of influence last night. Desantis on the rise.

Jay Winton

So sorry David and Peggy. Perhaps a beach reunion when you're feeling better.

Jay Winton

2013 La Rasina Brunello-horribly corked. First one out of a six pack.

Jay Winton

Thanks Joel. The joys of being the organizer-not!

Jay Winton

There's life in Denver!

Jay Winton

I have no 02 burgs but perhaps an 08 St Innocent-I have two or three designated vineyards. Also some champagne. But it is Friday so anything but Bordeaux. Joel's tasting menu will accommodate a variety of reds I believe.

Jay Winton

Kosta and I will both have lamb please.

Jay Winton

Thanks Joel. Venmo sent for both of us.

Jay Winton

It was nice to see Joel again and meet Brian and Catalina. Brian's notes are good-the VC was a little over dosed for me, the Bara was delicious. Early days but the 05 La Lagune may be a top tier vintage for this producer. I doubt I'll open another bottle for several years. All wines drank well but i...

Jay Winton

I opened this vintage recently, it has improved quite a bit over bottles in its youth.

Jay Winton

Thanks BD

If you have time email to me Mr V and I'll give it a try.

done. I have two emails for you so sent to both

Jay Winton

How do I post a pik. I've tried every way I know??????

Jay Winton

The Comte continues to drink well!

Jay Winton

Great choices. I might be able to do Saturday now as well. Joel and I have been in touch.

Jay Winton

Howard ahead of me-as usual-but he captures the spirit of BWE. All the wines drank well and the afternoon was delightful. Thank you again Howard and Lisa. I will post a pik.

Jay Winton

I strongly prefer Bistro Bis for Friday. Charlie Palmers seems to be worse every visit. Last year featured missed courses and inedible food for our table. I realize that food is far from the main event with us but paying a substantial tariff for not even lackluster cuisine seems to be a waste of our...

Jay Winton

My first case purchase due to the BWE devils. I drank most of them too young. 1 bottle left.

Jay Winton

Ok, I'm in for Friday with a possible guest. Can't do Saturday at this point.

Jay Winton

28/29 might work for a solo mr vino.

Jay Winton

I swear to god Jim the degree of difficulty on your cases keeps going up What you need to do is retire, move to Hollywood, and pitch a TV series based on your career. Each week the attorney gets a more and more over the top murder case and each week he has to come up with a way to explain it away W...

Jay Winton

Unfortunately, the 14-15 will not work for us.

Jay Winton

Possible family get together the 14-15 so will have to see how that shakes out.

Jay Winton

The dynamic duo of BWE strikes again. Nice wines and company!

Jay Winton

Very easy-bleach and water, let it soak and rinse thoroughly. Save your ducats.

Jay Winton

October kind of busy but let's work on some dates! November better I think.

Jay Winton

Outstanding!

Jay Winton

London 2023 should work depending on dates

Jay Winton

Go to Kingston Mines for some Chicago blues!

Jay Winton

10:30 Eastern time. Will we see the Klingon cruiser?

Jay Winton

A new one to me. I've been offered the 2018 at $19. It is a neighbor of Sociando-Mallet. Anyone know this producer?

Jay Winton

I believe the Comte saw his favorite band in the park!

Jay Winton

Here is a picture from our terrace.

Another great time in London hosted by Ian. Nice to see everyone had a good time but I don't understand the discipline of a 3 bottle night for three people? Very untraditional-BWE night. The discipline of a 5:00 a.m. awakening., Danny lol. Greetings from The island of Naxos. I would call this the o...

Jay Winton

Greetings from Athens as we enjoy breakfast before a day of touring. As always, it was delightful to see the Comte. While that Mouton Cadet was sorely missed, the lovely Cheval Blanc was a wonderful substitute. I enjoyed the British sparkler. They're certainly making some wonderful sparkling wines t...

Jay Winton

I still like my real-estate-is-mostly-likely-path-to-billion-dollars strategy, which Jacques corroborated with his algorithm a couple years ago. No argument there. We did extremely well with the sale of our previous home and our current residence (and only property) has increased in value exponenti...

Jay Winton

I bought 20K of 1 series bonds last year and this year. Not much in the portfolio overall but it's tied to inflation so current yield is over 9%. We're slowly dollar cost averaging the proceeds from our home sale last year via our planner's advice. I won't get more complicated in the uncertain world...

Jay Winton

Small world indeed. We dine with the Comte on the 23rd on our way to Greece!

Jay Winton

A plus for me when in moderation. Two factors account for the diversity of opinions: 1. Variability in palate preferences and 2. Ability of Brett to grow under warmer storage conditions, increasing the effect. +1 I think the latter is a bigger deal on these older bottles. One producer that also has...
