  Boxing Day Tasting (Birch Road Cellar - Chicago IL): Single blind flight of Claude Dugat 1996 & 2000, Bernard Dugat 2000, followed by a double blind mystery companion. Balanced old Burgundy that is classically Gevrey with its rugged good textures, black fruit, leather, and meat. Very good length. Maybe better a few years back, but still very good.

  Single blind Claude Dugat 96 | 00 | Dugat-Py 00. This was generally easy to identify as the 96 given a little more evolution and more prominent acid structure. While it may not have had the immediate pleasure the two '00 wines were providing, I loved this for its depth of flavor including some more mushroom and earth character, while still have ample meaty fruit. Back half a peak window, but still at peak.

  1996 Dinner...Top Champagne, Burgundy, Bordeaux (Park Ridge Country Club): In '96 Grand Cru flight. Opened approx 30 minutes before serving. Rich and ripe black fruity, very bold and meaty with impressive concentration. Still ever-so-slightly backward and ever-so-slightly oaky, but lots of fun in this glass.

  Sixteenth Annual White Truffle Dinner (Inovasi - Lake Bluff IL): Alongside the 1998. Ripe black cherry and plum with plenty of roasted meat plus a dollop of earth bringing hints of intriguing evolutions. Rich and layered.
