Ha you’ve stumbled upon what I belief is the most difficult part of any wine collection; that is to consume it. On the one hand you want to keep a 50 year old bottle in your collection. On the other hand there comes a time to consume it after which it’s s...

The dilemma you mention is real!! On the other hand, life is also just a temporary condition, so once in a while we need to open one of those old bottles. This one turned out really well (luckily) best Christian

It is an interest that runs in my family and my interest came a bit late but has grown a lot over the past 5- 7 years. My grand father had a wine import business and has always spoiled his family.
Better late than never ! ;-)

We have to take this wine conversation offline and somewhere else I guess. The wines from the 90s are starting to really drink really well. And the ones from the 80s too. Currently quite fixated with Rhône valley, and also Pomerol’s rarer, smaller produce...
