I bought 2 but not sure I will be around 25 years from now which is when Roy said this one will mature.

You can drink them much earlier than that if you want to enjoy them young and fresh. When I see the scores that Alex B., WE and WA gave to this wine, it is clear that I just didn't get it, even thought I thought it was well made. [shrug.gif] At $50 it is hardly a bargain and that original retail price of $80 is higher than Costco is selling the 2011 Taylor VP. Anyway, beauty and bargains are in the eye of the beholder/buyer.

True but there are not many I will not buy a couple of just to try, especially if the shipping is free. I am in a no man's land as far as finding anything local.

Michael,

Is it still impossible to have out of state web-based retailers ship to GA, or have things loosened up a bit in recent years?

Or is it that your local stores don't carry the good stuff.

Do you ever purchase from Atlantic Wine Inc. located at 3906 Roswell Rd NE Atlanta, GA. The owner, Patrick is a friend and really likes his Port and Madeira too.

Oh I can order from most anywhere, I just meant the local stores don't carry much. Looking forward to the next buying op.
