  April 26, 2017 - Blind 1995 Bordeaux at Table, Donkey and Stick (Chicago, IL): As with the great white Burgundies, I just love the reduction on the nose here. It's not too thick and in fact it seems to have integrated very nicely with the rest of the wine. Yes, the matchstick is definitely there, but it's also coupled with intense minerality. The oak is a bit prominent, but it isn't charred or out of place. Thickly textured, with a hint of coconut. An older Meursault, this has lost some verve of youth, but this is not an old wine at all.
