Dear all, I am slightly overstocked with certain wines/vintages and have decided to offer the below for sale. All stored at Seckfords in varying states of IB/DP. Some need to be drunk, others will outlive me. Some were originally purchased direct from producer via offers coordinated by members of th...

Alas a no from me too. My apologies.

Tentative at this range.

I had the sincere privilege of attending a dinner at All Souls College Oxford this weekend. The wines selected from the magically curated cellar included Leoville Barton 2005, Meursault les Chevaliers Bachey-Legros 2015, Vosne-Romanee Jean Grivot 2005, Rieussec 2007 and Fonseca 1970. Purchased en pr...

Alas, the 10% has determined I can't attend. My apologies.

I put most of them in circa 2011 so things may have changed...

I have circa 100 assorted bottles stored with Fine And Rare Wines. They allowed mixed cases and loose bottles.

Quite a lot of new additions on BBR. Not cheap but not expensive either. Croft 1960 and Noval 1960 for £165. They have had some fantastic stuff recently, and at less of a premium than I'd usually associate with them. As I was mulling over some BBR-bottled & never-left-BBR-cellars Taylor 66 bott...

With significant regret I must withdraw from this.

Gutted I can’t make it! Glad you’re well Rob! It’s been about 13 years since the East India Club tasting including the elusive Dalva Golden White.

Chris,

I've sent you a private message.

Yours,

First of 12 from ex Cambridge College cellar.

Decanted for 4 hours (under decanted).

Nose: tobacco, liquorice and some green under ripe fruits.

Taste: elderberry, red fruits, cranberry. Very long.

Good drinking port. Glad to have a case to work through but no more.

Consumed post Calon Segur 2009. Provenance unknown. Purchased with MSC. 2hr decant. On excellent form. Very dark tawny in colour. Smelt of dried raisins and cherries. Tasted of fog and dried berries/raisins. Excellent length. It kept on going for almost 1 minute. I have 2 bottles remaining and it co...

I think I was last place last year so if a valid option; may I be first reserve?

I cannot attend - my sincere apologies.

Tentative - will know by Monday AM.

An excellent idea and an excellent tasting. I found all wines to be showing rather well. I was high enamoured by the W66 and T63. It felt like the 1966's were beginning to open.

Thank you to the organiser.

Not necessarily a purchase but AMEX have a Fine and Rare Wine offer on their cards - spend £400 get £50 off.

From my vague recollection CEM scored highest with 7 points. A fine score.

A most excellent evening. My sincere thanks to those involved in the conception of the idea! Bar those tainted I was very pleased with all that showed.
