| I was hoping on nothing. But then the Switchback Magnum mailer hits.... Budget is blown, but can't pass this up. Sure wish I could afford all that I'm offered! | | | |

| I am on the purchasing wagon. Remodeling in the house has sucked up excess funds, and my cellar is filled with boxes. I'm not joking, I really do buy way too much wine, I must learn from the master WIML. I refuse to purchase anything more until June at the very earliest. | | | |

| Will do. I plan on popping one soon. Maybe even this afternoon to make a decision on whether to buy even more.
BTW, the owner told me this was a blow out because Dampierre will not be exporting this particular bottle to the U.S. after the 2000 vintage. | | | Joe-----Wine is like potato chips around me...if it's open, it's gone. | |
