after a recent move, I uncovered a 1961 Latour......I can't even remember when I bought the darn thing, however, since the find, I can assure everyone that it will be consumed with a fine steak quickly followed by a stoogie.....either that or taken to my fine wine dealer for sale by consignment.

Nice Thread!
Wish I found this thread earlier....
Being a Franco-oenophile (esp. 1er Cru Classe Bordeaux), my cellar is especially strong in verticals of the Pauillac duo "La-La"s...all bottles are inventoried and stored at a local full-service cellar Vinfolio - www.vinfolio.com Some examples of the Chateaux I follow: Latour - 78, 79, 82, 83, 86, 88, 89, 90, 92-05; Lafite - 76, 79, 82, 85, 86, 90, 94-05; Margaux - NV (for rarity of collection, never for drinking), 82, 83, 85, 90, 93, 96, 00, 03; Ducru-Beaucaillou - 76, 78, 79, 83, 85, 88, 93-97, 98, 00, 03; Pichon-Baron - 86, 90, 96, 98, 00, 03; Leoville Las Cases - 93, 97, 98, 00, 03; Leoville Barton - 88, 90, 93-96, 98, 00, 01, 03..... Of course there's the Hermitage/Cornas/CdP.... Chapoutier La Sizeranne - 90, 92, 93-98, 00, 03, 04; Jaboulet Aine La Chapelle - 90, 94-98, 00, 03..... |

How does one follow a wine if you dont own any.....? |
I figured that the most efficient storage of wine is in boxes, hence I got
2007 Zeta Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2007 Concha y Toro 2006 Roodeberg |
picked up a couple bottles of the 2006 Sassicaia - anyone here pop open one of these yet?

do you follow music, art, authors? you follow wine the same way.
i have cases or half cases of about 10 of the Bordeaux(or equivalent) in the cellar. most are 88,89, and 90. i have a couple dozen different 1-6 bottle chunks of 87-90 big label cabs. and i have about 50-100 other mix and match bottles that are recognizable. i don't know where they are buried, and do not know when or where i acquired them. i do not have the slightest idea what to follow. cellar holds 1800-2000 bottles, and varies about 1-2 degrees F, between summer and winter. |
