TN: 1997 Jean-Paul Brun Beaujolais Cuvée l'Ancien VV

Hey, I don't usually cellar this stuff more than 5-8 years myself, so I appreciate the skepticism. My source also sold me some 06 Coudert Brouilly VV which was pretty nice, but I didn't see the point of holding it another 5 years, so that went quickly.

So I'm just cleaning up others 'neglect' I suppose and to me the results have been surprisingly good.
But keep disbelieving, it's great for prices.

1999 Foillard Morgon Cote du Py $11.35 (I later gave him an extra $5 a bottle out of guilt).
1999 Lapierre et Pacelet Brouilly $10.80
1995 Fessy Chiroubles Reynaud $10.80
1984 Jadot Moulin-A-Vent $26.00 - off the list at Berns
 
Around 3(?) years ago at RN74, we (myself, Slaton, Kane, Jon Bonne) drank a bottle of '89 Moulin-a-Vent from Diochon. It was a damn fine drink.

Monkey, you might as well extend your geographical boundary to the Bay Area. However, we already know we're fucking nuts.
 
As a native of Atlanta who has never lived north of the Mason-Dixon line or in a time zone that ain't Eastern, I resent any implication that my insanity is in any way related to that of the godless tree-hugging heathens of the PacNW.

Sorry, omitted the joke icon: Sometimes a Great Notion is a novel written by Ken Kesey about people in the dark, drizzly Pacific northwest sorting through some difficult psychological issues.

I consider the southern boundary of the PacNW to be Santa Cruz. So you're good.

Ernest Callenbach saw it that way too.

I did, we just didn't read anything like that. I actually took a Comp Lit class as well.

And mine is a quote from Louis CK.
