I’ll be fully vaccinated by next week, and I have Coudert going back to the ‘09 vintage (and a magnum of the ‘14 Tardive). I’m game.

Sounds like there is momentum for a July 24 or 25 event in DC assuming vaccinations (and variant-effectiveness) go as expected.

We need a Google Sheets master to assemble the potential lineup. (In other words I’ve become a Luddite and defer.) I’ve got:

Regular 2000, 2004-2006; Tardive 2004 (only 1 left), 2012-14; Griffe 2017. I thought there was more but apparently not.

Per Mike Lewis, I can offer some surprises as well, Beaujolais and otherwise.
 
I don't do spreadsheets, but I will supply the 2010 Griffe and Tardive.

Assuming vaccinations, etc., I am certainly in for a DC jeeb sometime around July 24th, which would make it a birthday jeeb for me as well.

No doubt that will incentivize me to open up several other good bottles, too.
 
I just mentioned a Durham Southern Jeeb on another thread, I should have waited until I read this one. I have 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2002 Coudert Tardive and 2002 of the normals that I’d enjoy sharing.
 
I am reviving this thread to see if there is momentum for a July 24 or 25 Roilette or maybe Roilette/Desvignes combo event in DC? In which case it’s not too soon to start planning. I would drive down. And bring a lot of wine.
 
Gail and I will be here and will be happy to participate. I have a few Couderts I could contribute, though none I would guess that others don't have.
 
I'm selfishly sorry to hear of Thivin becoming popular, the ordinary CdB there has been a sentimental favorite for years, and I'd just begun dabbling in the named crus. Not eager to see prices balloon.

I'd be interested in an DC meeting and can offer Tardive 09, 13, 14, as well as Griffe 11, 13, and 14. As Jonathan says, probably nothing that's not already widely held. But immerhin ...
 
I can't make that event, but you all have my (much-coveted) blessing on the '13 Griffe du Marquis. I'm drinking my last bottle tonight and it is so delicious. I bought several on release and this is by far the best. The usual story.

For my tastes it is an absolutely perfect blend of maturing harmonious suave fruit and energetic sappy freshness. Well worth the wait. (Although I guess some may wait longer)

I’m tentatively in.
