| Couldn't find the *&(*&S thread so just a note that I received notification that the 2005 Aubert Pinots are on the way.

| How long do people recommend sitting on these? This is my first allocation, my guess is longer the better, but with only two bottles of each, it will be hard to sit on them. | | | |

| Rob, I have not had the 05s (obviously), but had the 04s out of magnum recently. They were pretty tasty. | | | |

| I wouldn't age these wines nor would I drink them now - I'd sell them (given how much they sell for in the secondary market). |

| Aubert in the office!
Can't get into off-site storage until tomorrow. I'll be tucking these away for the next few years! | | | |

| I'm torn, I might follow what Dan suggests and just send these out to auction... | | | |

| Randy,
no rush - good reviews, so the price won't be coming down. wait for more tasting notes. | | | |
