Went to a favorite place for dinner last night. Started with a glass
of NV Veuve Clicquot with Amuse of Jambon and Asparagus followed by a
starter of veal sweetbread "lasagne". The Veuve was crisp and light
with pronounced apple and lemon flavors. A bit short on the finish
and not as good as I remember it from past bottles.

Dinner was Dover with lemon caper butter. I opted for the 2006 Louis
Latour Meursault. Nose of lemon and oranges. Not much oak on the
nose or palate. The wine was a bit thin but showed a remarkable
minerality much like GC Chablis. Not a lot of complexity but an
enjoyable wine for under $40 on a restaurant wine list. "B"
