happy christmas
Hi,
probably not very PC, but i just wanted to write a quick word and wish all of you here a very happy Christmas. We'll be raising our glass of Haut Brion '88 to "absent friends". The Quinta da Noval '60 will be used to toast "The family". -- All the best Ian Hoare |

Ian and all...Happy Christmas to you.
It is now early on Christmas morning here in my part of the world and I'm sitting with my son, trying to keep him calm and patient while we wait for the rest of the family. Wines won't come until later today, but all of my remote -- often unmet -- friends will be in my mind. Peace to all, Jim |

happy christmas
Ian,
Merry Christmas to you! '88 Haut-Brion is probably my favorite wine of the vintage, drinking gorgeously now. Please post on the '60 Quinta da Noval- I'm a '60 vintage myself, and Ports are about all that's drinkable. Fonseca has been my favorite to date, but haven't tried the QdN. Jim, Good luck with keeping your son in check! Best wishes to you and yours. Have a Merry Tokyo Christmas! And to everyone else, no matter what holiday they celebrate, wishing you a 2006 filled with good wines, love, and good cheer. |

And so to you Dale. It must be completely in order to wish for a Happy Yule since nobody seems to know what it means ... how could it offend anyone or anybody? And it has been the Winter Solstice (as my friend Hugo pointed out - he´s a Jew) and that is the same regardless of religon, place of national origin, sex, or hobbyistic inclination ... and the day is now three minutes longer than on the 21st. To which I, at least, will gladly raise my glass, though it only contains a modest Rasteau 2003 from Chapoutier (sweet tobacco leaves and liquorice - mmmm) as I do to all of you, whishing you a Merry Yule and a Happy Winter Solstice, a Chappy Chanukka, a Kool Kwanza, a Merry X-mas, and a Really Good Whatever for the lonely Zoroastrian ... Cheers Nils Gustaf |
