I like a good wine, the pinot noir is a bit pricy for the better bottles. I have never understood the appeal of buying an expensive bottle and not drinking it for 15 years. I might not be around, who knows? I have had some 10-15 year old bordeaux, and honestly it just loses some of the fruity taste and mellows out, not sure it’s better than when it was released, to my taste.
Wife ordered several cases of wine at Christmas gifts from WSJ Wine. What a debacle !
They have mixed up the orders, failed to deliver because they’re “out of stock” for a particular wine (even though they continue to advertise in WSJ and on line) and their 800 number clerk is a dick.
A warning to everyone on this board: DON’T BUY FROM WSJ WINE.
They couldn’t find their backside with both hands...

- and see the usual “could” and “may” scientific words that tie it into Climate Change.
They really had to extract a connection...:^)
I am a fan of pinot noir. A good pinot noir is a masterpiece. I am going to get a case of 2011 vintage from Burgundy and set it aside to have open one each year on my birthday beginning 15 years from now...that case will take me through my 104th birthday anniversary :)
