Old Baron's wife and I then flirted over some 1979 Krug Clos du Mesnil (champagne), and although she implored me to spend the night, I had to get back to CP to find out who won the Ermines game. It was a grand time!

And I have no doubt that the Rothschilds are avid Ermine fans.
A name change would bring us all sorts of new fans, with a particularly strong capture of European royalty.
