    Getting into good wine is cool! Especially when you can get it on the cheap.

    I have invested too much money into wine over the last five years. Its shipping season right now and I think I have about 5 cases from various Napa wineries en route.

    Anybody interested in high end 100 point Robert parker wines? I can provide a short list and some pricing to people with real interest but these are not cheap.
    11.80% for 2012, 24.79% for 2013, -5.13% for 2014 , 4.94% for 2015 WTF?, -0.04% for 2016 , 13.09% for 2017======= 8.23% , Moved to Vanguard in 2018

    I'm not sure I can afford (as a luxury) 100 point wine, and I don't have a good place to store for investment, but if you have a list made up already I wouldn't mind perusing if you don't mind PM'ing. You never know. Thanks.

    I've wondered about stocking up since parts of Sonoma were destroyed. I assume many have thought of this already and prices are rising?

    Opus is AWESOME!

    One Napa wine that might be a tiny bit better and usually a tiny bit cheaper (lol lke the difference between $200 and $150).

    Dominus.
    Just like Opus, its a collaboration between famous French and Napa Winemakers. Dominus's co-founder, Christian Moueix also makes arguably the best (and priciest) wine in the world, a Merlot, with some Cab Franc, from France, called Petrus.

    CURRENTLY 30% C, 20% S and 50% G (as of COB 04/11/2024) 1st April IFT

    Not much into wine. It tends to give me a headache.

    Now a couple of Yuengling's and I'm good. And a lot less expensive per bottle.
    May the force be with us.

    Yes, it’s not exactly the kind of wines you open for thanksgiving. You need to open these with 4-8 other wine snobs/geeks who are really into it.

    Let’s hope, not yet. Actually the wines I have are 2012-2014. The prices they bring really are due to Robert Parker scores. Well, plus they really are very nice wines. I love great Napa Cabs.

    its hard for me to open anything over $200. I look at my meal and my drink and realize I’ve got $50 in my glass and $10 on the plate.

    I see you sold one of your wines...

    The Most Expensive Bottle of Wine Ever Sold Is a $350,000 California Cabernet Sauvignon
