  Top Burgs and Bubblies (Dino Restaurant, Washington DC): What followed proved to be my other candidate for wine of the night, and probably deserves this honor: the Berthau Chambolle Musigny Les Amoureuses 1996, which seduced me into a blissful state of near euphoria. Smooth and refined, with beguiling notes of faded rose: very floral and feminine and, yes, sexy. But with substance, folks. I would go back to it and ponder that wine should taste this good all the time. Sadly it does not, but we can enjoy occasional treasures such as this. Huge thanks to Maureen for opening a second bottle from her BYOW stash after the Groffier proved to be corked.
