If you can't get what you want at a reasonable price from either of the above-mentioned sites then consider shipping it. Carrying it will work too, but the wine must be in checked baggage. You've obviously put a lot of thought into this, and have set a high standard. If it's that important to you then do whatever it takes to get it there. Your "anniversary vintage" idea appeals to me, and you've now got me thinking about wines for my 20th anniversary next year. I may find myself in your exact position in about 11 months. Fortunately, I have two trips to SBH between now and then to work on an on-island wine order. While I do cook quite well, I prefer not to cook on vacation. I will likely bring in a private chef one night. The cost is not that much different than the cost of dinner in a very good restaurant in SBH. If the idea of a private chef appeals to you then click on Eating & Drinking at the top of the page, and then on Private Chefs. I've used Bernard Javelle before, but there are others listed there too. Post Extras
