  Nice dark rich spicy red berry flavors and quite well balanced overall. Shows breed and sophistication. Drinking very well now, yet still lots of life here. A touch much of an acidic spine my only nitpick.

  Dinner with Richebourg 1998/1999 from both Anne Gros and Hudelot-Noellat (RPM Seafood - Chicago IL): In Anne Gros / Hudelot-Noellat 1998/1999 Richebourg flight. Started off reserved, this slowly, begrudgingly opened and flourished. Lots of ripe red and black cherry with savory spice, this kept getting bigger, deeper and more nauanced. Great now, with upside. My WOTN by the end of the evening.

  Next to the 2007 this seemed still a little tight initially. But with swirling and time the quality of the wine started to show. May need more time. Beautiful and Long life ahead.

  Pre La Paulée Zachy's BYO Dinner (Lafayette NYC): Wow-levels of aromatic intensity and layering. A very forward and approachable 1999, which isn't always the case. Serious complexity and length.
