    Nice shout out to Domaine de Chevalier, tried the 1998 a couple of months ago. After 10 years it’s still a baby. I can just imagine what the 2005 is like.

    Any way you wanted to know where your non-american viewers are from. Sweden is where I live and I know you got a following here.

    Canada,
    No ’05 Bordeaux for me. I don’t even know what the market is like in Canada yet. I’m still building my pallet, and there is a whole world to catch up on.

    Dude, it is the last day to spread the thunder and I am going at it hardcore. I’m an operations manager at a huge hospital north of Boston that has at least 4000 people come through our doors every day. I’m in my usual shirt and tie, but today sporting the wristband brother. I’m bringing the thunder hardcore today. I was just getting my morning coffee and told the nice old lady at the register to bring the thunder…LOL!!! She said ok, you too. Dude, I was dying…wicked funny.

    Everybody is asking me about the wristband…LOL!! I actually had a guy pass me in the hallway and said “bring the thunder buddy” I said “No Doubt, tell your friends” This is awesome. It’s making for a fun day. I think I’ll sport the wristband everyday.

    Dude, you are the man. Love the show!! Vayner nation is here to stay.

    Keep kickin ass with your big ass glass!!

    QOTD:My wife and I have had some of the lower priced 2005’s that have been on the market and have ordered some others that have yet to arrive. Those that we have tried have been outstanding even at the lower priced level. I can’t wait to taste some of the “Big Boy’s”.

    QOTD: My 2005 Bordeaux story? Well…it is non-existent, but I am hoping to change that, one bottle at a time (price permitting, of course ;)).

    QOTD2: I’m a part of the Canadian Contingent – in British Columbia…so I guess that makes me a BCCC?

  • Lb in KS

    QOTD… I bought an inexpensive Chateau davril and was really OK with it, so I purchased a few more bottles. Opened another, and it didn’t seem to be nearly as satisfying the next time around?

  • My position in 2005 bordeaux is limited to two bottles of 2005 Chat Lanessan. It was all my local wine store had left! RP gave it 92 points and I generally agree with his Bordeaux assessments so I went in blind.

    QotD: Unfortunately I’ve only bought a couple low end 2005 Bordeaux bargains because frankly I’m not in the market to buy cases of the stuff to hold onto it.
