Dinner at Joy Luck Place with Mike, Vincent, Clare, mom-in-law 2006/10/22

Year	Wine	Price	Rating
2003	Domaine Joseph Roty "Champ Chenys", Gevrey Chambertin perfumely floral, red cherry, cassis, a hint of smoke, precisely focus yet different every sip. Chalky in the beginning, evolved into velvety smoothness in the end. - so - ws	49.99	*****
2001	E. Guigal "Chateau d'Ampuis", Cote Rotie very tight nose of mineral, coffee. Flavor is also rather closed. I think Mike said it's $55. Perhaps I heard wrong? It's listed at $150 in both winespectator.com and bevmo.com. Clearly overpriced even if it opens up eventually. - so - ws	150	***
2002	Ducru Beaucaillou, St. Julien leather, pencil lead, vanilla, elegant yet powerful, a hint of rust, blackcurrant, blackberry, coffee, full body. Well made in a traditional Bordeaux style. It is unfortunate that it doesn't have enough time to air. - so - ws	60	****
