Barolo

So, the 2004 Barolos and Barbarescos... you should buy as much as you possibly can. I've been saying it for a while, but this is a vintage to cherish... to put away for your kids 21st birthday (or your retirement). This is a 25/ 30 year vintage.. such concentration, but such classic notes as well. This is why Barolo is the King and Barbaresco is the queen... long life - check! complexity found almost nowhere else - check - still in a reasonable price point for the quality - absolutely check... I got into them because my wife doesn't love (gasp!) Burgundy, but for some reason loved the Italians... so, there you go. Buy them and thank me in 20 years...

Changes...

So... I've been through so many changes in the last 2 months that life has gotten the best of me. I will still write this blog, but it will be on a much more limited basis, as I have numerous other responsibilities at the moment, both at home, and in the general wine community as whole (including business, volunteering, etc.). So... let me know what you'd like me to write about!!!!!!
