I think I will begin by opening a bottle of Dom. Jacob Creme de Cassis and see where it leads...

Thur is also the day Kyser gets dessert after dinner. All are happy at chez S1

This is a new Lieu-Dit to me.
Is it Cote de Beaune or Cote de Nuits?

Second bottle.  Notes similar to a few weeks ago.

2002 Nicolas Rossignol Volnay Chevret 1er.  Another really good 2002.  Cork is solid, but wine-streaked from bottom to top.  A little funk upon opening which lingered for a couple of hours.  Let breathe for four hours.  Funk gave way to a smoldering nose of incense, dark cherries, brown sugar and spice.  Silky, creamy entry of red fruits and with the texture, something akin to strawberry short cake.  Some sweet tart too.  It finishes with tongue-coating mineral dust.  Interesting.  I couldn't put it down.  Fine.

Bought for $59.  There is still some on WS for $69.

Happy Burgundy Thursday!
