Have tonight downed some SB from a source that I have always enjoyed. The '09 is now on offer and I shall get a case tomorrow prior to naming it here |

Clearly a plant for a quiz Q. So, I'll put this into the pot, and see if it sprouts, it's had a good 3 months to acclimatise: Tis nice MrB tis nice. Bottle no 1 was made by Tate and Lyle. Fairhall Cliffs is not Brent Marris ? But his brother ? |

Aha! not that one, though I do have a few of those in the dark. This offering has had only one tiny mention in this forum. |

Ok, Monsieur Bacca....votre mentalité - not a tiny mention. La Grande Cuvée Sauvignon Blanc . Rather good when you pic the predicted to be perfect '09 from the shelves at you local. You can't risk web ordering though. A cork stopper, are you planning to lay down for 18 months or so, a few of them ?...Hmmn could be particularly interesting and rather classic. |

This is almost better than LQs. That one is on the radar as well Mr. D. Just like the buses, few decent offers for a while and now loads in May/June. My store was still '08 in the one that I really wanted but got some Vina Maipo GR SB (Chile) at £5 (half price). Will try other store soon. |

I think I know this. A little clue is in the title, No? Is it good? Might grab a few if so. |

Fess up, Ba. Is this a heavenly drop worthy of a gong? |

Assuming I am correct, only 08s in my nearest store. |

Is this a heavenly drop worthy of a gong? I must confess to having to google "fess up". Yep, there may be a tiny clue in the title but it was not intended so. Gong I'm not too sure about. Today went a little awry but am hoping to go on a huge raiding party tomorrow. |

OK I give up. Was hoping for Sacred Hills & Grande Cuvée '09s but no luck. M & S have 25% off everything, so got 12 there and 6 in each of T, Sains, and Maj. |

I was wrong. I thought it was the Starborough. The actual answer has surprised me. Scared Hill |
