The recession is well and truly over lads. Just got this wrong number text:
Good Afternoon, I tried calling you earlier. In reply to your call earlier regarding Lafite 2012. I will hold the price I offered to you last year. €2310 per case of 6 bottles. Let me know. Regards.
In fairness, it’s cheaper than last year.

…no thanks..but if you’ll do the 2006 at that price…
Probably an investor.
Well the ‘Barons De Rothschild’ need the money after the crash.
Its truly amazing how theyre still keeping the family going, what with all the incest
In fairness that’s a pretty good price compared to online retailers. Still a lot for a bottle of bulls blood mind.
the 2012 lafite is utter p1ss, to be fair
Good Lord, I nearly dropped my monocle.
Manfred, bring around the Rolls, the Lafite is ready for collection.
basque folk do that too, they call it ‘kalimotxo’
That’s usually with manky cheap wine, though. The Chinese lash it into expensive wine (well, the Chinese I met did).
Is it Basque? I didn’t realise that what was where it came from. Used to drink it when I lived in Madrid. Rocket fuel. Do you know what’s also nice? Shandy with club lemon as a mixer instead of lemonade. Refreshing.
fizzy lemon in beer is big all over the continent, it’s usually called a ‘radler’. and it is indeed most yum.
Saw a millionaire château owner on TV say that anyone who pays more than €50 a bottle is a fool
Recession doesn’t mean everyone gets poor. It means the poor get poorer, some in the middle become poor, and the rich do just fine.

We will all party once again!
€2300 of that is probably tax.
