Hope your 82 was uncharacteristic as I still have some.

In fact I just went straight down to the cellar and pulled a bottle
that I'll open Friday and will report back. I was going to take an 82
Bordeaux to a blind tasting, but what the heck, we'll use them as
Guinea pigs on this wine.

Thanks for the heads up.

I also have a fair bit of the 1991, a neglected but very good vintage
in the Northern Rhone.

And Thalabert often performs above it's pay grade, haven't you found?

Sante.
