Following the rule of fifteen, this went to the gallows yesterday. Decadent plums, wood and tar. Good acidity, well integrated wood, alcohol more than civilized. Modern, ma non troppo, gave us much pleasure. So hit me; I need the money.*

What's the range for compensatory claims arising out of peer disdain on WD?

Thanks. Your note tempts me to open one of my 99 Burgaud CRs, but perhaps I, too, should observe the rule.
 
Dude, just observe it. It's a good rule. Oswaldo's doing great.

Burgaud 99 is way too young. That's a rule of 20 wine.
