New 2010-2011 I Hear Through The Grape Vine That's It's Claude's Birthday Soon? It's Now Sunday, July 31st, 2011 Claude " Bonne Anniversaire A Toi!


It's always good to be thinking of you Claude Thibaut because your name is synonymous with good wine : starting with sparkling wines ( your own now from Virginia called Thibaut-Janisson ) and real French champagnes ( JANISSON )
and the dry French still wines you and Pamela Margaux import. All of these are sold through your import company Margaux & Company in Charlottesville, Virginia.

We ( Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits 3423 Connecticut Avenue N.W. Washington D.C. 2011 Tel:202-363-4265 sales@clevelandparkwine.com, anthony.quinn@clevelandparkwine.com, www.clevelandparkwine.com, also now on Facebook at : Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits and on Twitter at : cpwinespirits, too ) have been there since the very start for you Claude. We were one of the first two stores ( Potomac being the other ) I believe in Washington D.C. to start carrying your French and then your Virginia sparkling wines? Anyway, we are still delighted to have them with us and sell them as often people come in search of them and often we recommend them ourselves as they are always really well-received by our many customers. That's a win-win situation the way I look at it.

My only suggestion would be that you would occasionally bring them by for us to re-taste as they do change slightly from year-to-year and it's nice to have tasted them more recently as we always sell on taste and talk about the products themselves and the people behind them and never about the points or the scores that they receive.

We currently I believe have some of the very last of your Virginia vintage-dated 2006 sparkling wine ( $41.99 ) in the store to sell. Come by people and get some of these remaining few bottles. They are pretty special. You can ask Claude himself about this.

Cheers Claude et bonne anniversaire a toi. A la prochaine, TONY

We don't know the day or the year or the month that Claude was with us at Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits but we do know that it was at 6:25PM. That's good : something concrete and verifiable. Cheers, TONY
