The Twins Arrive

Fedex delivered two of the most beautiful babies last Friday. They were born in 2003 in Bordeaux, France...spent nearly three years learning their trade trapped in a barrel...and have come to live as foster children in Jefe's cellar until I decide to kill them sometime after 2013. Their names?

2003 Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou, St Julien.
2003 Chateau Calon-Segur, St Estephe.

I can hardly contain my desire to execute them now. A first-growth class wine from Bordeaux, in an excellent vintage, is one of life's supreme pleasures...and expenses.
Tasting notes coming in 2015. Stay tuned.
