@great-big-steessaid We do, on occasion, need a break from the hustle and bustle of our normal routines here. Care to join me in a glass of a Mouton Rothschild? I managed, in 1997@ a Christie’s auction to get my hands on a 1945 Chateau Mouton Rothschild. I’ve been looking for a reason to open it and low and behold here we are.👍
Don’t worry, it’s a name familiar to folks who follow North American football 🏈. I know you asked for cheddar cheese and chef has arranged a tray containing many different varieties for our enjoyment. Enjoy.👍

You will probably be disappointed.
Old wine goes off and is usually undrinkable.
However collectors do pay a fortune for the stuff so you would be better off putting it back up for auction.

My dear sir/madame, the only thing I every invest in are markets, not wines. Wine is for drinking. Care to try it?🤔👍

Actually the Mouton Rothschild 1945 is one of the odd one out. It keeps very well (I didn't taste it, but a quite famous Suebian cook vouched for that.)

Fair enough.
A good palm of mine works in an auction house.
They do a roaring trade in old wines but he told me they are undrinkable.
And usually corked.

Our wines, here at the Tavern, are all closely watched by our “wine expert” Louis de Boulanger 1V, who actually offered his expertise gratis/free. He assures me all of our extensive collection are all drinkable and pleasant to the pallet, as you will see when you partake in any of them.
