Any experience with their old vines cabernet and how it ages? I have a couple of bottles in the cellar and not sure when they should be considered "fair game"

Some of those vintages for the Old Vines, if aged appropriately could last 20 to 30 years. The. The fruit from Champoux and Sagemoor vineyards is the best in Washington state.

I am interested in your list as well. I was at French Laundry about 7 years ago. I would love to try new places.

Very nice. Also a great wine tour at the estate. Pity you can’t purchase any there though.

Hi Kevin, my favourites are Bistro Jeanty, Red, Press and Meadowood. Archetype for lunch. Actually the Culinary Institute of America in St Helena is good too.

Looking good as always my friend.
