  April 2, 2018 - 2006 Burgundy Dinner (Imperial Treasure Super Peking Duck, Paragon): Rather bigger and sweeter than normal, but this was still a pretty fine wine. The nose started with a rather sweet waft of caramel corn along with more typical notes of white fruit, cream and florals, and then a little twirl of minerality at the edges. A pretty attractive bouquet. The palate had that same sweetness suggested on the nose, fanning out in a creamily textured mouthful of stone fruit and honey laced with a blush of spice. Well integrated and decently balanced, with plenty of Montrachet's effortless. There was quite a bit of glycerol popping up here and there, especially leading to a long but rather heavy weighted finish. Otherwise, this was very pleasurable, just lacked a touch of the polish and finesse that one would expect from a Marquis de Laguiche Monty.
