I do think Bordeaux fared best out of any region in 2003 in Europe. The wines are so sturdy already. I think some Chateaux made great wines that year like Montrose and Pontet Canet. But many have that roasted quality. I wouldn't buy...

A bit of a self-plug, but here's me wearing my Steed Lumbs Golden Bale Flannel DB suit. Love it! http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324485004578427100641395338.html#articleTabs%3Darticle

Nice looking suit Bill! Did you even have a fitting for that as it seemed to come out quick? Or have they nailed down your pattern to the point where they make it and you wear it and do any minor adjustments later? Wear it in good health!

I've really liked the 95 Yquem in the past. Underrated and I know the Chateau really likes it as well. Enjoy!

Tempting. If I didn't already have the LL barleycorn in dark brown and natural I'd jump on it. Hopefully it gets remade for you guys!

But the 28's are legitimately great these days. :^)

Awesome shoes! Wear them well and in good health.

2007 Piedmont's are tough. Dolcetto's and Barbera's are ok as they can handle ripeness better, but the Nebbiolo's from that vintage are just too hot.

What year was the Produttori? Count me as normally a big fan of their stuff. Try them out in a leaner vintage like 01 or 04 and your mind may change.
