Probably why Beajoulais is so big in the states.. Disgusting stuff if you ask meamericans tend to bruatlise their wines and we also tend to drink them way to young"Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music."

the biggest prob with a wine like that is you ned to have the storage facility for itOriginally posted by unconnected
Heh, my GF and I love to go downtown to the main Signature store and stare at the bottles of '99 Chateau Haut-Brion .. One day when I have enough money to justify spending 900.00 for a regular bottle we are going to get one..
58f
75% humidty

99 is a BBBBAAABBYYYYYYY

GOOD marketing
and its cheap
I drink it
ALL wines have their place and time
Thats good stuff chilled outside in the summer or on a picnic or bbqComment

I suppose it is all a matter of taste.. If I am hot and want to cool down I will usually just get a cheap aussie white wine some 7-up and go nuts with that.. But if it is red I would go with a cheap table wine, or une Vin de Table instead.. Just me though.. all a matter of taste.Originally posted by Forest

Oh and ALL wines don't have a time and place, unless you can give me ONE good time or place for a Blush :D hehe, ugh..
As for a cellar. Will this do?

I wish it was in my house
But alas, not until I build my house of my dreams would I invest in something like that..

too verry good solid vineyards from CaliforniaOriginally posted by toonces
Sterling Merlot. I'm usually a Cabernet Fan, however this merlot is Fab. Best vinyard in the Napa valley in my opinion as well.
Best reasonable Chardonay for a dinner party (hence buying in volume...at least at my dinner parties)
Clos du Bois
Clos du Bois is one of my everyday drinking wines
The sterling Merlot (depending on the vintage and vinyard produced from) can be a top notch wineComment

I don't know about you but I definitely wouldn't be able to get it up after a bottle of blush.. would be too focused on the bloody taste in my mouth..Originally posted by Forest

Gah.. I remember liking that stuff as a kid, and then trying it later in life and making it through one sip before I dumped the bottle out..

How much do you have to spend to build a nice wine cellar? Not including the price of the wines, of course.Originally posted by unconnected

Hopefully closer to the 25k mark. I would think you could get something much nicer than what is in that picture for 75k.Regards,

I've been drinking too much wine to have a favorite.
Wines that I've had in the last month that stand out in my mind are all from cali.
the 95 shafer HSSLD I talked about in another thread, 96 opus, 97 cakebread, 96 heitz.
When I'm home, I like to pull a bottle out of the cellar @ 54-56 degrees and decant it for 1/2 hour or so letting it warm up a bit.
most unusual bottle I've had has been a 64 lafite. 64 was a shit year but has sentimental value so I've got a few bottles.
It was great! so thick and old but still held great taste. I've since opened a couple more bottles from other sources that have been vinager.
I'm not a dinosaur, I'm a crocodile. I've seen dinosaurs come and go and I'm left unimpressed.Comment

Rick all the trouble we have gotten into together and we have never drank any wine during or around these events...
I love good merlots, but am quite happy with Mondavi Coastal as my staple wine... buy it by the cases and drink it quite a bit.
I always default to it when out as well if no one is sure what they want, its a good idea until I get a bill for $260 ($20 in a wine store) in vegas for the bottle...lol
And I special order almost all the red organic wines our local shops can get in, think I have sampled around 20 different red organics as they come in (they sell out quite fast here as well).
Rick a wine night is in order next time we see each other... looks like enough of us here would be into it as wellInsane, Color and Instant Sensation

Had a 92 Burgess Library at the Foundation Room in Vegas the other night. Can't say enough good things about it and the price wasn't too bad.
My all time second favorite is Kenwood Artist Series Cabernet -- 97, 96, 95 are all incredible at the moment.
Jarvis, Matanzas Creek, Jordan, Beringer Knights Valley Reserve and Estate rock too.
My absolute favorite of any I think I've ever had is the Diamond Creek Volcanic. Their Gravelly Meadow is great as well but the Volcanic is hands down the best. Next time you're in Phoenix head up to Sedona and have dinner at L'auberge, just about the only place guaranteed to have it --Comment
