Time to order nouveau

Ordered a case of Château Ste. Dympna Beaujolais nouveau. Recently heard about a white nouveau from Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence; will have to inquire with the wine merchant.

Cellaring

Papa's latest largesse has arrived. It's a good thing I enjoy the wines from home, since he is so liberal with them, compared to his purse. Quite surprising, really, considering the devastation occuring in so many vineyards. I suppose I should just enjoy it while it lasts.

Today: a case of Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande for special occasions and six cases of Château Duhart-Milon-Rothschild for table wine.

Last night at the club Ralph mentioned rumors of a strange illness among the tinies of Tanglewood. I do hope it's nothing serious.
