My wine of the night, it out-shined two a bit tired 79 Burgs. Priced at $32 at B-21, it's a baaagn! Popped and poured, the cork was perfect with 1 mm rim. Dark color, musky nose but in a good way. Mike long finish, what's not to love!? I just bought another 6 bottles, this wine is a gem!

popped and poured. Huh. I never did get a good handle on this- the nose was very austere, a touch of earth and some resin. The palate was all structure for about 45 minutes and then a sweet core of ripe black cherry fruit came out- the fruit wasn't overripe, but is seemed overdone- a bit of a heavy hand on the oak. not my favorite, opened about 3-4 years too early.
