What's the secret to drink that much and looking so good?
I assume two bottles between you and your wife. 
Last night was my first dining at a restaurant since February
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...
All looks good, except for
the Henley shirt with a double breasted blazer. Sorry dude.
The Haut Brion was the finer wine. It was very interesting ..
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...
Interesting,as that was a wet vintage with
relatively light wines. Glad you enjoyed them--they seemed to surpass their vintage Thanks
My wine mentor would agree and said the key to ‘93 was which wines.
Other esteemed wines did not fair very well at all. I was genuinely shocked. Have a great weekend,

Merci. I think sticking to Bordeaux... plus vegetables orange juice and exercise :)
Yes two bottles for the both of us. Warmest regards,
LMAO. No no we are normally very understated, and
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.
Buttonless blazer or The almost Napoleonian pose ;-)
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 ;-)
Lol how humbling. Either Mile or Massimo measured so could be a bit of column A and B, but
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...
Beautiful clothing! Big Kiton fan here...
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 ...
Come to Toronto and I promise to open a bottle of Haut Brion
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,
That is incredible!
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...
My pleasure Patrick. I haven’t travelled much in California ...
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...
I generally prefer French wines over Californians as well...
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...
Thank you!
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...
The 20 year old bottle is going to be very good.
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...
I forgot to mention; we have a GREAT KITON STORE in San Francisco!
With a great staff whom are knowledgeable and passionate about the product. And a fantastic tailor who is perfect.
Looking sharp ...
You never go wrong with a Sub on your wrist. Have a great evening 🥂
very nice outfit!
I am a fan of both Kiton and Cuccinelli. Well done and the Submariner is amazing too
