I need to send a friend of mine a bottle of wine for Christmas. He is a big-time wine connoisseur, and puts almost everything in the cellar for a long time. Last year I bought him a bottle of 2005 Opus One, so this year I'm looking for something similar (~$150).

Any suggestions? I was thinking maybe Pine Ridge Fortis, but something more off the beaten path would be better.

I also need to order it online and ship it to him as a gift, so recs on where to do that would be appreciated as well.

 

Ended up ordering this:

1996 Grand-Puy-Lacoste, Pauillac - SKU 110489
