had at the Sedgwick's last night, i encouraged Sedge to open alongside a Faiveley Clos Vougeot 2004, he said it would undoubtedly be spoiled… in fact it was well past peak and therefore modest, smooth and a little soft, but pleasant… he was surprised (as he was recently when i served him a very lively '58 Borgogno Barolo), he is coming around that the right Italian wines with the proper aging can be extraordinary

With Kathy and Miranda at dinner at Romano's (while our house was being "de-flead").Surprisingly light color. Ruby red. Classic Chianti nose. Good fruit, slightly woody. On the palate, quite tannic and woody, though very nice with dinner (linguine piscatore). A bit austere. Good, but not as good as the '82. 4-9-14-6: 83/100.
