After the head to head of '98 vs. '99 of Bois de Boursan Cuvee des Felix last night,
My nod goes to the remaining '98 in my cellar. Lots of good stuff, but this was nothing short of sublime. |

I did decide to keep my '86 Mouton, '89 Leoville Las Cases, and '88 Yquem, since the prices the Broker told me I'd get was less than I had been hoping on these. |

Ah..... I haven't had the 98 vintage of these monsters, I assume they are still drinking "young" or...?
The bottles (and me) will be long gone by then. dh |

According to the notes on www.cellartracker.com, people are drinking and enjoying them now. Drinking windown is now - 2034. :eek:

I think '98s will be a vintage to drink in the 10-20 year time range.
