Re: Quaffings for Xmas
We started opening bottles on the 15th December (it's rude not to) so far it's been a 63 Dow, 63 Taylor, 63 Croft, 63 Cockburn, 63 Noval and a nice little mystery bottle of a 35 Graham 3 days out and doubt we are going to top that now!

A must have case of 70 Warre - that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it, and being a nice wife I have bought hubby a case of Smith Woodhouse 94 for Christmas. Not really sure if it's for him or just to add to my nice little collection of 94's I have going on
