No, but Hyundai has one of the best warranties; bumper to bumper coverage for 60k and power train for 100k miles. That's for my peace of mind, I don't need to worry about them breaking down while they are away at school, first car and all. And sorry to all for posting cars... I thought it was funny and coincidental that I had a red and a white, as in wine. I'm nowhere near as experienced in wine collecting as many here, though I do sincerely enjoy the nectar of the grape.

I think I have this wine in a different vintage or may be form Chapoutier. I am big fan of Condrieu as my favorite white Rhone wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to be a big buyer of white burgundy but having been burned by the premox issues too many times, I tend to buy more white Rhône of late. Love Chave’s white. I do like the wines from Condrieu.

Tave1225 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 60A is a special wine. I’m jealous that you had the opportunity to try the 1962. Hopefully you didn’t spit. :-) I had the chance to purchase two bottles of the 2004 but was slow and was only able to get one. I will hold on to it for some years before pulling the cork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will hold on to it for some years before pulling the cork the 04 is really good and will age for a very long time. the 1962 - definitely never spat it out. i think i have probably tried it around ten times over the years. it is only in the last few years that some bottles have started to show any tiredness but good bottles are some of the greatest wines ever made! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new ones are all young and hot, but not bad. Not something special though imo. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planetary Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Thanks to @Lotusguy for mentioning that one of our better California suppliers had the Four Pillars Bloody Shiraz available. Also picked up a couple bottles of the Four Pillars / K&L collaboration (notes), and an old standby tawny. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
