Reminds me of a special bottle I had once. In the early 1990s I bought a bottle of Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1989. Not cheap as it was around $130 IIRC. Each year this wine commissions an artist to design the label often with sheep in them although not always. If you look at this one the sheep have been flipped over symbolizing the fall of the Berlin Wall that year. When Ronald Reagan passed away in 2004 I opened it for his funeral and toasted the great man as I watched it on tv. It was fitting since he was largely responsible for the event that label commemorates. Oh and it was very good vino btw and I still have the empty bottle as a keepsake.

That was a great story. Thanks for sharing.

Oh, that is so cool. And a beautiful label on the bottle.

I love that you opened it for President Reagan’s funeral. I just watched the Reagan movie Saturday and the screen got a little blurry when he said “Tear down this wall!”

Thank you for that memory.
