I'm still stuck at the office and need to live vicariously through you for a few more hours.

That is such a fantastic wine -- how many Trilogies have you had? I spotted a 2000 and 2001 at a local wine shop, worth buying?

Were you in my cellar?  I also popped a De La Terre.  Only a few left.  Can't wait to see what Dave puts out this year.

Kid was so impressed, it forced him to refer to himself in the 3rd person for the rest of the evening.

Status: offline 		I opened up a '74 Port that I made, well back in '74. I haven't had a bottle in perhaps 20 years, 9 left out of 3 cases produced. Squirreled away and discovered 12 years after we moved. A leaking cork caused me to pop and taste. Still pretty dog gone good. Moving towards tawny with nice but subdued fruit, only 16-17% abv. Very smooth and drinking nicely with some walnuts, an old Matt Kramer recommendation for port.

Just don't stop and stare at the woods too long on your way home. You'll get to that first pour faster!

1:35 PM and still at work.
