Yeah, now this is an old thread! But a good read. I still have never opened a bottle and found a weevel in it, so thats a good thing at least.

I think I still have some 1977 Warre's with weavil damage -- remember that "lost" case of 1977 Warre's that I found in the back of my locker? (mentioned in a thread a few weeks ago). Anyway, I'll have to open one of those up for you... just to check out the cork!

Haggis....I actually had Haggis while in Scotland with Derek. I was lucky to meet his parents and his mom made it. It was actually fairly good and I didn't see what all the hype was about. I ate a full plate of it. But I did tell Derek he now has to eat Menudo when he comes to L.A. .... no '77 Taylors to pair with it though :devil:
