Wine: Any vintage or estate from DRC...
Although I mostly buy Mouton.
Beer: a nice belgian or even a Unibroue from Canada.
Although I would happily share a glass of custodian's Cheval. But I have had 4 vintages og Y'Quem and don't like them for just drinking and listening. Perhaps with dessert or some fresh fruit after dinner while listening to some jazz..
Hey cdp,

I have had 1989, 1993 and 1995.
I have heard good things about the 2001 vintage as well. I haven't heard about the 2003 yet... I cannot afford futures, I'm a buy it and drink it now kinda guy. We don't have a cellar. We pick up a first growth every couple of months but awhile back it was every month other hobbies have invaded. I am also a fan of other houses of sauternes as well. It can really finish a meal nicely.
CpDunn,

I forgot the 1997, which I really enjoyed....
Also Did I see you have experience with the french company YBA? I am thinking of buying an Audio Refinement processor for 2 channel and HT use. Any thoughts? Anyway... to keep with the spirit of the thread, the new Mouton 2001 is out at $150. Zachys said it may be better than 2000 for the house at half the cost. I see a trip to Scarsdale in my future and a maybe a new cd to go with it...
