Food & Wine

For part of the night things almost seemed normal. A wonderful night out at our favourite restaurant. Sorry no food photos - I always live in the moment and forget, but I did get the pre-dinner selfie and mid-dinner wine pictures. Oysters, elevated shrimp...  

Great DB suit, nice watch collector and good wines. Thanks a lot!

the Henley shirt with a double breasted blazer. Sorry dude.

How did the two clarets compare? best henry

It was blind and I guessed Haut Brion correctly, but I never would have picked 1993. The fruit, acidity, noble tannins and minerality were so balanced I thought it was a more esteemed vintage. The Latour had laser precision as usual, but lacked that speci... 

relatively light wines. Glad you enjoyed them--they seemed to surpass their vintage Thanks

Other esteemed wines did not fair very well at all. I was genuinely shocked. Have a great weekend,

I assume two bottles between you and your wife.

Yes two bottles for the both of us. Warmest regards,

I can’t stand the reality celebrities. It’s extremely amusing though because I drove an R8 and A7 before that terrible movie. I told my wife it just wasn’t dirty enough.

regardless the answer, I feel privileged as if I had been invited too and I thank you to have made all those efforts for it ;-)

Wasn’t trying so hard - the bottom of the blazer was about 2.5 inches lower. I’d post a picture, but you’d poke more fun at me! We never see each other except wrists and the few brave like Nicolas and Jocke... so perhaps a try and fail to connect in a tem... 

And excellent bottles of wine. Where was my invitation? I'm tired of people using Coronavirus as an excuse for not inviting me! And Haute Brion is one of my favorites. There ought to be a law; nobody shall open a bottle of Haute Brion without offering me ... 

It holds a special place for us as it was the most memorable bottle during our honeymoon 14 years ago. I love how wine brings back very special and exact memories. Like I can still smell the bottle and humid ocean air that night. Warmest regards Patrick,

I have to admit, I have had some fond memories associated with certain wines! Thank you for the kind invite, and if you ever make it to Northern California you must call me and I'll bring you to a winery in California that reminds me of Haute Brion! Thank... 

Generally it has been a layover on the way to Maui with a few exceptions, but what little I saw was gorgeous. So curious now about the Californian wine you find similar to Haut Brion. I’ve had some incredible cult wines from California, but my knowledge o... 

Californian wines are way too "big" and take super long to age. They probably need to be aged an additional 10 years over their French counterparts for all the tannins to "mellow-out." I generally like my Californian Cabernet Sauvignons to be around 20 ye... 

I think the best course for me would be to buy some 20+ year old Californian wines through a private source to see if it’s for me. I have enjoyed wines from a lot of different regions, but it’s very seldom I open a bottle that’s not Bordeaux at home for m... 

But getting that 20 year old is going to cost about the same as a 15 year old bottle of similar quality in Bordeaux, and then you simply have a stalemate. If you have the space at home to cellar multiple cases; I just recommend that you keep a small suppl... 

With a great staff whom are knowledgeable and passionate about the product. And a fantastic tailor who is perfect.

You never go wrong with a Sub on your wrist. Have a great evening 🥂

Take care and enjoy

I am a fan of both Kiton and Cuccinelli. Well done and the Submariner is amazing too
