Ladies and gentlemen, I am very happy to announce that the 2007 vintage at Scott Paul is now all in barrel! The wines have been laid down to rest in their french oak sleeping-lofts, and an entire year’s work in the vineyards has now come full circle. Kelley and I are very excited about the potential of the wines. We’ll have a much better idea what they’re all about after they’ve gone through malo, which is most likley not until some point in the first quarter. We’ll keep you up to date here on all the progress.

Now we get to focus on celebrating at our La Paulée events on Saturday. I get excited like a little kid sometimes before these big events. I’m really looking forward to it, and I’ve got some nice treasures from the cellar set aside for dinner. I’m not sure exactly what I’ll bring, but probably some goodies from Mugnier, Roumier and Confuron, and maybe an older Musigny or Montrachet or two. Stay tuned…
