MNSC does casual
Dinner at a friend's house.
1996 Pol Roger Blanc de Blancs - a little savory, plummy and yeasty.
1999 Armand Rousseau Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St.-Jacques - a little sharp and alcoholic, slightly ripe on the nose, a little potpourri and a little floral, with some animal notes. Still pretty young.
1988 Armand Rousseau Chambertin - a bit more animal, exotic spices and red fruits.
1996 Mugnier Musigny - much cloudier and seems older. Ripe red fruits, also slightly sharp, with a little coconut butter. Later after chilling down a little, rose and floral notes emerged.
1966 Lafite-Rothschild - really smoky, soy sauce, earthy and black tea.
1990 Angelus - green pepper, a little tight at first, kinda ripe but needed time to open up. A little soy sauce towards the end. A little more smoke and earthiness. Nice but not as good as I had hoped.
1989 Margaux - mint, earthy, concentrated and slightly sweet on the palate.
1976 Lafite-Rothschild - a little grassy, sweet. Pretty enjoyable.
1986 Margaux - alcoholic, ripe, minty. Still tight as it's just been opened.
