Sunday, April 3, 2016 - Does it get any better than Grand Cru Burg.? This was a surprise to me how great this wine showed tonight. It is drinking great now and is full of rich nobility. Black cherry, with red strawberry jam with a lovely fragrance of truffles, mineral, and damp mossy soil. Everything I love about Burgundy! A touch of heat on the finish tells me that it still needs a few more years. Nevertheless, if I had more, I wouldn't have the strength to wait on it. This was wonderfully paired with a combo dish of Duck Confit and Breast over a smoked white bean cassoulet. Our 2nd night in Vancouver didn't disappoint.
