If you send me a message, I'll give you the secret location! I was there today and there are 6 more bottles. I wouldn't make a special trip just for it, or you might see if they could ship a couple to you (not sure if that's allowed in BC or not). I could get one or two and hold them for you until you are over in Victoria and we could have dinner or something!
I had one a couple months ago and it was drinking beautifully.
I'm jealous about the Quilceda Creek. I saw the 2013 QC cab today for $344! I don't have that kind of dough for one bottle. However, I did get the last of a couple of Penfolds RWT 2006 for $129! BC Liquor just cranked their price for RWT (pre 2014) to $248. Weird. I'm sure it'll be a short matter of time and even the newer one will be jacked up.
How did you find out the 1988 QC was phony?
