Nothing Special

Peter Lehmann Cabernet '02 $15. Amazingly fruity for a 4 1/2 year old wine. Obviously well made and M really likes it. I don't get enough body or finish to balance the front end; it ends up tasting a little generic. Not getting distinctive Cabernet or terroir elements. Then I remembered we really liked the Clancy's blend. Maybe we should pick some of that up.

VRAC good clean "chardonnay"; white Cotes-du-Rhone. Agreable to both of us.

Fat Bastard Chardonnay. Oaky yet thin. Quite a trick.
