Sorry to be the Grinch who spilt the wine, but 73 was a lackluster vintage in Burgandy and even tho this is from one of the great areas of Burgandy the wine is 10 to 1 a gone gosling. You might try Wine-Bid.com and see if they are interested. Happy Holidays. WW - leibsj - 12-07-2003 I appreciate your info, but does "gone gossling" mean it is no longer drinkable? - Kcwhippet - 12-07-2003 "Gone gosling" is just the weener's cute little way of saying "DEAD DUCK." He means it's not a wine he'd be willing to let pass his lips. I agree with him. The wine may have possibly been pretty good about 5 to 10 years ago if it had impeccable storage. Now, it's a vertical filler. Try www.winebid.com. - leibsj - 12-07-2003 OK........."vertical filler"...does this mean no one would buy it or don't drink it. Not only am I learning about wine, but it seems like there is a special language that I'm learning. Does "vertical filler" mean pour it out into the sink? - winoweenie - 12-07-2003 No. Someone may need this to complete a verticle of La Tache.( Verticle means the same wine in successive vintages ). Sorry but the wine is past salad dressing even(vinegar) but can have value for a verticle. Again, try Wine-bid.com. WW |
