Annotations

Nat Geo: National Geographic magazine. In Japan, it’s usually shortened to “Natio (Nasho) Geo,” but in its native land it takes on a different abbreviation. The news that it was laying off all its staff writers and switching away from the newsstand model in June 2023 may have fit with the trends of the times, but still came as a shock.

Screaming Eagle: A storied wine produced in upper Napa Valley in California. Very little is produced per year (about five to seven thousand bottles), resulting in it being very hard to obtain. Both its inaugural vintage in 1992 and its 1997 vintage received 100 Parker points.

DRC: Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, one of the world’s most preeminent wine domaines. That said, it produces around 450 cases per year of its Romanée-Conti label (about six thousand bottles, though there are scarcer years), and 250 cases of its Montrachet. Though most wines produced at under five hundred cases won’t just show up in your average shops, with enough money to throw around, they’re not unobtainable. Incidentally, the Domaine Leflaive Montrachet produces only twenty-five annual cases—one tenth of DRC’s. And only half of that hit the market. Which tastes better? Well, that’s a matter of preference. At least it’s easy to say which is more scarce (though the amount of fields each domaine owns plays most of the role in that).

About six hundred bottles: 683 bottles of the exceptional Leflaive Montrachet 2016 vintage went on sale in 2019. Leflaive itself had contributed enough grapes for 57 bottles, DRC with the most at 280, and Comtes Lafon in second with 139. Bottles sold straight from the vendor for 5,550 euros apiece, and even then, they weren’t sold via avenues accessible to most buyers. Including this author (sob).
