and…. goodbye old forum.

it's been real.

[shoque]

The forum upgrade was conducted as planned without any hiccups. Hope you like the new layout!
All those nasty bugs should be a thing of the past (Automatic logouts / Redirection via e-mail subscription to first page of thread).

As always, let Giles or me know if there is something you don't like/miss or if you got a new idea we could implement!

Enjoy!

@Seul:

So… Geo... Onto that Faugères again... I get this from my regular lad who deals from the weekly flee market (I kid you not)... He's asking 13 €/ bottle for this'un... Just opened a bottle and had some family taste this... Made the decision to buy whatever he has left of it... It's quite simply top 3 material...

gonna source this and check it out . . . if you think it's good, then it's good

[elclintor]

I like the new look…

Smooth new look - loving it.

Geo: I found one Faugères from the Barral domaine from 2000 online and it retailed for 55 €…

I'm off to cruise to Sweden/Stockholm with my family. will be back online tuesday…

Any interesting shops in downtown I should go and visit?  (caliroots is on list, mrmudandmrgold is too far away...)
Haven't been shopping in Stockholm in ages.

well Seul looks like it might as rare as hens teeth but do you have that link?

[Seul]

I've been looking into it and found this!

http://www.snooth.com/wine/leon-barral-faugeres-2001/

Starts at 20 $!..

And this:

Community Tasting Notes (average 91.3 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 8 notes) - hiding notes with no text

Google 'faugères leon barral 2001' and you'll find more. There's apparently a 'luxury' version of this wine named the Valinières which costs a lot more… Probs mistook it for this'un...

[Geo]

thanks good buddy 

[Seul]

I would consider selling you one out of my private stash, btw… Depends on whether the seller can get his mits on some more...

[Giles]

I have to admit, I have felt better than this in the morning…................

[Seul]

True, font color has been changed to black.

that's kind - let's see if I can find a source, and if not maybe you could find out if your seller can add to my cellar 

[Seul]

Oh but he's just a guy who does it on the side, no store or anything… And I'm more than certain he doesn't have any experience with shipping wine...

I can ship you a bottle but don't really think it to be very practical to send you 6 or 12 though.......

[Geo]

it's cool - let me see what I can find

[madmonday]
