Last week one of the bottles I enjoyed was a 1990 Le Bon Pasteur. Outrageously good and fully mature. It was full round and jammy. I don't recall all the flavors exactly now, but I remember thinking it was a great bottle.

I see now that Parker had rated it a 92, which explains why it was so good.

I built my own wine cellar in a house I had built for me. It has racks with a capacity of around 500 bottles with enough space to stack another 50 to 80 cases. The racks were almost full when I moved in twelve years ago. I have put most of the cases up and it is starting to dwindle. In a few years I will go on another buying binge.

There is a mix of everything from under $10 bottles to $100 and up. The bulk is probably in the $25 - $40 range. I do enjoy a Grand Cru Bordeaux from time to time.
