The '08 is a monument to off-vintageness. And fuck y'all for buying all off the '09 when I was somehow offlline or otherwise occupied.
Y'all never heard of winesearcher.com? geez.

Sure, some of us actually use it and the Pro version indicates that Arlequin is the only store that carries the 2009.originally posted by Brian C:

Y'all never ran across shipping laws? Youze guys should try living in the south. Geez.
In reality the only thing I am cursing is my brief inattention to my own significant, ongoing personal hoarding program. I knew I should have bought that "Gamay Hoarder" app for the iPad.
By the way, refresh my memory. What were the fairly recent changes at CRB and when did they happen? I think I remember Mr. Dressner alluding to them...? I've always liked the style of the wines but I like that the gamay seems purer with less funk (certainly less so than the early 2000's versions, which exceeded my funk threshhold). As heretical as this may sound to the local denizenry, the 2008 version is my favorite CRB gamay.

Well, if it's legal I'd be happy to mail you a few bottles once the weather cools off.

You'll probably need to ship from your offsite, allegedly individuals aren't permitted to ship alcohol.originally posted by Jay Miller:

As if.
It's not just that it's illegal to ship to Tennessee, but the punishment puts the "drag" in dragonian (or something like that).
If they catch you receiving bottles shipped over state lines in Tennessee they make you do hard time working the cleanup shift over at the Bluebird Caf in Nashville on the "Geezers of the 80s" song circle nights. "Cruel and Unusual" doesn't even begin to describe the punishment. This is night where all the writers who'd co-written minor hits in the really bad era of the post-"Urban Cowboy" Country Music Scare sit around and swap songs and reminisce about the hits they co-wrote with thirty some-odd other writers for the likes of Earl Thomas Conley, Keith Whitley, Kenny Rogers, Alabama, Eddie Rabbit and others whose "hits" aren't exactly up to even the B sides covered by Ernest Tubb, Johnny Cash, Buck Owens, Webb Pierce, or even crooners such as Carl Smith or Ray Price. I think Dante considered this the 5th or 6th ring of hell, but I'm not sure that even he went that deep.
All I can say is "Jon, don't do it". Even the greatest of Gamays isn't worth trying to clean up the mess left after the puke-o-rama that occurs when songs of that Nash-Vegas, "we wanna be makin' soft rock" are bandied about (and I'm not talking about Moe Bandy).
-Eden (trust me, I've been there on those sorts of nights and they were as enthralling as I'd imagine an evening with Barry Manilow backed by the Montovani Strings would be like, assuming that the fiddles weren't exactly tuned anywhere near to A440)

CRB has got to be one of the worst consequences of the early retirement setup in France. Tell Didier to get his ass back in the vineyards, is what I say.
Shud I still try to visit them in October?

I have some for sale
$40/bottle.
2009 will be the last vintage produced by Didier and Catherine. Forthwith, it will all go to Nolla.
What, really? I didn't know that.
I knew it was soon but not that 2009 was the last.
