Larry,
Jean and I have been fans of DDO since its inaugural vintage. We
still usually end up buying it when on the West Coast, but (weirdly) a
local bar/restaurant for years has offered DDO for $30 a bottle on their
wine list. Storage conditions weren't perfect, but we drank through
their supply fast enough that it wasn't a problem and they kept
resupplying. We haven't had that much fun with a local wine list since
drinking through a stash of '86 Beaucastel at a local "fine dining"
establishment shortly after arriving here in '90 ;-)
