Dom du Colombier 2004 Chinon * This is dark and medium-full bodied. Uber dry with raspberry and bay leaf. Low acidity, and a decent chalky finish. I'm a sucker for good Chinon so this was very pleasing and almost deserves two stars.
M. Chapoutier Cotes du Rhone 2005 * Plum color. Spicy nose with red flowers. Overt crushed peppers, red wine reduction with long lingering strawberry finish. This wine is a lot of fun, a little lighter than the Chinon and a longer finish too.
Ch. Virecourt Pillebourse 2005 Bordeaux * despite being unknown, this wine was surprisungly full of dark berries, and an enjoyable finish to dinner.
