ROTFL It is great to hear that you had a good time. Did your wife accompany you this year? Did she have a good time? What did she think of your newfound respectability? Being part of a team that collectively knows a little bit more than the average bear is a great feeling. I hope you enjoy it because we will as well. I can relate to the palette adjustment. My wife used to get mad at me when I would open up a great Rhone wine (except Chateaux Nuef du Pape or Hermitage) her palette didn't process the different flavors as pleasurable. Even I did not love the 1990 Domaine de Gachon Saint-Joseph (Syrah - called Shiraz in Austraia) even though it is very typical and Parker rated it 89. Yes, Lafite is a Cabernet Sauvignon. In most years it is blended with Cabernet Franc for acidity and Merlot for roundness and fruit.8 It is more like $100 or more wine. Pride yourself for identifying that or remembering it. None of us tutored you on that. I hope you found some wines you enjoy that you can afford to drink. Regardless of what I love, your palette is uniquely yours. I would enjoy drinking what you enjoy and would enjoy your company as well. Socializing with people who appreciate wine is always fun. In closing I am glad you had fun. I also apologize for bloviating. * Most Red Bordeaux wines are a blend of the same three grapes. Most Pommerols are just Merlot.
