We followed up with Mondavi Napa Valley Merlot 2005 ** which is less robust than the 2004, and not quite as fruity, but is more subtle, and a generally good value wine at $16 | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE APRIL 1, 2008 Wine Splurge Update So I bought one magnum of 1979 Veuve-Clicquot La Grande Dame for $525 and there you have it. Back in January I lamented my past wine splurge results. Many of you commented with excellent suggestions, some of which I wound up using for Splurge 2007. Yeah, just like the NY State legislature, my budget comes out later than it's supposed to. | | |
