Can't say I am drinking much DRC Had a '62 La Tache once and that sublime indeed. Unless I get at least a 1/3 the bottle, I don't consider a glass as really having that wine. It takes the whole bottle to pass final judgement. It's like rating a cigar from just 2 puff's.

Picked up a case of 2006 Giordano Toscana (Super Tuscan) at Costco for $13 a bottle. Worth getting for sure (hint hint). I see 5-7+ years aging and should be a fun daily drinker. Comes in wooden case too! Picked up '05 Kendall Jackson Grand Reserve Cab. Double Magnum for $79. Compared to regular B&M's, the double magnum comes out to regular bottle pricing. Another 5-10 year aging drinker.

I have something for large format bottles.
