BWE DC 2021 - Themes?

[Blanquito]

I'm just trying to bring 2001s and 2011s. I'm very unoriginal.

Speaking of which, I'm bringing a 2001 Suduiraut on Saturday -- anyone else have 2001 Sauternes to contribute? Legendary vintage!

I will bring a 750 ml 2001 sauternes, let me see what my options are.

[Hm$(still)]

I might have a Sauternes from 2001

Thoughts on the ‘86 Ducru?

Hm$

Everything I read, says that if it is one of the reconditioned bottles from the winery then it will likely be great. However the originals have a high rate of contamination apparentlly

I am going to have the least original theme ever - just bringing 2001 and 2011 wines. I believe in our base 10 numbering system!

Thursday - 2001 and 2011 VCC
Friday 2001 Togni, 2011 Chave Hermitage (yes I know it’s too young but I’m curious)
Saturday - 2001 Pichon Lalande and Baron, 2001 Suduiraut, maybe 2011 Tertre Roteboeuf

[Blanquito]

Here’s my breakdown:
-Thursday: 2012 JM Boillot Garenne Puligny, 1990 l’Evangile, 1986 Raymond Lafon
-Friday: 2001 Christoffel ET Spatlese* Riesling, ***red TBD***, 2001 Ridge York Creek Petite Sirah Essence
-Saturday: 1985 and 1989 Canon, 2001 La Tour Blanche Sauternes

Thinking about it, I may bring a 2015 VCC to the Thursday dinner as I think the 2015/2001 comparison could be quite interesting. It could definitely spur an interesting debate about alcohol and wine quality as I think the 2015 is 14.6% or maybe even higher.

I'm thinking of 95/96 Bordeauxs for Saturday. And considering a 1999 Burgundy (2) for Friday. If Burgs don't work for Friday, I can work on an alternative.
