Ripple and Ridonculous Wines (Ripple - Cleveland Park - Washington, DC): Musty nose, a bit tired, blows off a bit. Palate much better. Tannic still, really earthy, full of mushrooms and dead roses, dried red apple peel and dried red currants, notes of dusty soil and pickle juice. Interesting, but a bit beaten down.

Another Saturday at Chevalier...Mostly Blind Burgundy (Chevalier Fine Wines - Chicago IL): Corked. Very odd...I've had wine twice in the past few years and both were corked.
