I have not seen this wine on the shelf

The Estate Selection, made for Majestic is available but £1 more a bottle, when excluding multi buy New Zealand discount.

Check with Goose, this ES may be a different kettle of fish

Hope that helps.....a little.

I may take a couple of the ES, hopefully when £2 off a pair.

Goose has gone walkies - Easter Vacances ? - probably

That cry baby is now being nursed in the creche for a while..... thank gawd for that.

It 'll take a day or two, to get use to a bit of peace and quiet round here !

GK got bogged dow at the plot - without them squabbling all over the place, this room is a bit too tidy.


edit......spoke too soon :wink:

I think the Majestic one is different to both this and the Co-op Estate Reserve which appears to be no longer available.

This can be had here

God this wine is lovely but the 09 is losing a bit of it's pungency

The 2010 is probably bottled and awaiting shipping.

The Pioneer Block 06 has the same flavour but yet has all the elegance and restraint of a good Sancerre

Tidy

I had almost forgotten I had these. Opened one last night (followed by a Couronne, I was really treating myself :D ). Pungency is decreasing a little. It is still fantastic. Mmmm.

No oh block 6 anywhere :(

Off Topic:

You were :) Personal House warming evening - you deserve it after the stress of the move .
I'm down to 5 x La Couronne' St Em's GC, and I am not looking forward to finding a replacement for the price, of my fave House Claret for a long time. I will have to move away from this trustworthy wine until the Autumn. Prices have shot up again for anything drinking well on the right and the left.

Good petite chateau properties will be making way for their '09 bottled stock, so we have to keep our eyes on the ball.

Saint Clair MSB 2009

I still have Maj, locating Oh ! Block 6, they will email when found. In the interim, I called to reserve some Vavasour '09 in case there is a run on that !
