Well, since the 2005 harvest has yet to occur in the Northern
hemisphere, you can be assured that it won't be any time soon. His
first, preliminary assessment of the 2005 Bordeaux (from barrel samples)
will be in his Feb. 2006 issue. Other regions are less predictable,
though you can expect to see reviews of 2005 whites occurring in late
'06-mid '07 and reds in the '07/'08 issues.

No, has always been*) - and certainly will be - in the April
issue.

*) except for the year of the 2nd gulf war, when he postponed his
Bordeaux trip from spring to fall.

Well, you got plenty of time to plan, the 2005 cab futures are close
to 2 years away.

Oops! You're right, of course, Michael. His April issue discusses the
barrel tastings he attended in Feb.
