I've been buying high end claret in bond for some time now as "a hedge for the future".

It came as something of a shock to realise that "the future" has actually arrived and is happening all around me, so I'm having to get on with drinking my stock.

My latest indulgence was a mixed case of 4 of the first growths (all except Latour) which won't be ready until about 2020 at the earliest - hope I make it!

cheers, Terry
