  Opened at 5pm for dinner drinking. This was so delicate and floral almost Burgundian, it was the crowd favorite till the 98 Cuvee special appeared. Overall better than the 95 but certainly not better than the speciale.

  drank nearly 2 hours after opening. Still very fragrant, a little sweet on the nose, with very nice leather notes.

  1/27/2022 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine:

  La Tablee: Bonneau retrospective (Mercerie): Coming on the heels of the '99 this just jumps out of the glass. It's big and bright and intense. Lots of red fruit. Again younger side (no rush to drink) but it is a vibrant one.

  in 16 years on Cellartracker, this is the first wine that I've given 100 points twice. It just hits all the right notes for me with power, dark black fruits and so many flavor notes that they are impossible to keep track of. An absolute explosion in the mouth. I might try to pour this over pancakes some time.
