Well... it had to end sometime
But did it really end? Last night, in any other week, was a pretty darn interesting night. Just after 3 of the last 4 nights, it wasn't spectacular (except in the bar...). The 1998 Pahlmeyer Red was a touch green, a touch corked, and like the rest of the night, wasn't all that spectacular. The 1995 Chateau Clerc-Milon, Pauillac, was slightly thin, but was a very nice Bordeaux. The 2002 Lamblin Chablis Premier Cru "Fourchaumes" was wonderful... classic steely-chalky limestone with beautiful fruits. Wonderful Chablis. The 2001 Chateau Fuisse Pouilly-Fuisse was amazing wine. Lots of new oak, lots of tropical fruits - so fat and lush. Glad we're pouring it by the glass... In all of the excitement of two nights ago, there was another bottle of 1952 Margaux that went out, with similar tasting notes. 6 bottles left...
