yes, i'm debating how much of the 389 to buy. i wanted a case, but waited a few days and now the store's down to just 5 bottles. i would definitely suggest trying one before deciding to buy more. as i said, decant for at least 2-3 hours before drinking as it is loaded with sharp tannins that really need to soften. the '01 389 is not the fruit forward, soft, luscious bottle that previous vintages i've tried have been. this is a tight, tannic beast right now that's going to need lots of time to calm down and really open up. if you load up, you'll need to be patient.

btw, where in fla. do you live now?
