Me too,
But only Cab Sav
And in your opinion is there really a difference between a 40.00 bottle and a 60.00 bottle ?

It depends what and why... the years, the blend, the grapes, the style... your tasted etc.

Shirah and Hajdu are insane stuff... a lot of the wine on the market you are supposed to buy and age.. Get a wine fridge and cellar stuff

Someone is telling me that the Segals unfiltered 2010 is really not good. Can anyone confirm?

My favorites for this yo"t are Castel GV '10 (better than 03 07 09), Yatir '06, The cave, and Mediterranean 2007. What am I missing?
Hi PG!

How was the cave '07?

I have someone who wants to sell to me the cave '07 1500ml bottle for a good price.

And what is on the bucket list for this YT?

Shirah!!!!!!!!

over chag / shabbat I had, Brodeux twice, counter punch, syrah, geshem, taanat!

You get so much better value than cave with yatir forest, flanm reserve, shiloh mosaic, shirah, hajdu, netofa latour, capcanes flor, habib, moulin riche 11, royemount 11, yon figeac, haut condissas etc

Yes. I think we had it on same table as '07 and concluded 7 is slightly better but not sure. I think I'm starting to lose the appreciation for the subtleties.

Seriously? How long ago did you see it there? I am looking for it all over the globe and I can not find it. Maybe it was the '08? (which is not interesting for me because of Shmitah) How much was it?

best deals duty free are louria grand  vital 44$ buy 1 get 1 free. I got a great deal on recanati special reserve 12 at 40$ 10% off and buy 3 get 1 free put it like at 27$ which is insane! But you can do better than that.. although that wine went up

buy say flam reserve cab or merlot buy 5 get 2 free will put it at 28.50 a pop add a 50$ OFF 300 coupon if you can get some bogo deals and your essentially paying 23$ for a 50$ wine
