I’m posting live from Gate C-9 at the Portland airport, ready to hop on the plane for Burgundy - you gotta love wifi! I’m stoked for this trip - I’ll be visiting all of our producers to taste the amazing 2005s and get a first look at the ’06s, and I have appointments with a couple of potential superstar additions to the portfolio - more as it happens. Also looking forward to maybe bagging a barrel or two at the Hospices auction again this year. And also missing Martha & Pirrie like crazy already… It’s hard to believe I’ll be in Beaune having dinner with ThiĆ©bault Huber at La Part des Anges in a matter of hours - only two planes, a taxi, two trains and a rental car away!
