Gerry....

I'm REALLY counting on you to keep me apprised of the New Hampshire situation....

I HAVE to believe they are going to be releasing 2019 Lynch Bages, Leoville Barton, Calon Segur, Giscours, etc., etc., sometime very soon.

I've been watching the inventory 3 to 4 times a week so I hear you.

One concern is not everything is listed yet. Of the bottles you mentioned, only the Giscours is shown to be coming.

Thanks Gerry, even stores like Zachys don’t have their 2019s in yet. I do notice that NH has a large supply of Cristal that recently came in, I wonder what vintage it is. It’s too pricey for my budget but it seems considerably less expensive that other stores and might be worth buying a bottle when they go on sale. (I still can’t believe that $170 price we paid for the 2008 Cristal, one of the greatest heists.) There doesn’t seem to be a bottle of Dom Perignon in the entire system, which seems very bizarre to me. I’m not planning on buying large quantities of 2019 but I’d like to get a few bottles of each of the usual suspects.

[Gerry M.]

The Cristal is probably 2014, at least that is what I saw in Nashua. I have enough high end Champ I think but it kills me to pay what they want for NV Pol Roger these days.

NH pricing is weird, the 2019 Geyserville is $48 in NH, I ended up buying it for $38 at MacArthur's.

[Gerry M.]

I buy my Geyserville at TW for about the same price less 10% for 6 or more bottles mix or match. NH's pricing on Ridge has really flipped over the last few years. Even Three Valleys is like $30 now
