I can match that to make up a mini horizontal.

Never mind. Apparently, there's no solution outside fixing the malformed HTML.

Funny, I thought the 03 white Bugundies were pretty much hands-off across the board - but I pretty much only buy Chablis and Savingy-Pernand. I've been curious about the Burgundy reds. IIRC reading here and there at the time, many producers acidified, the thought of which is somehow unappetizing.

I'm not saying that there aren't better places to put your money (except maybe for a handful of red Burgundies and some late harvest Germans and you've got 30-50 years to wait), just saying that there's more quality out there than people want to recognize.

Does the 30-50 years remark concern the laste harvest germans or the "handful of red Burgundies" as well ? Thanks.

Both.

Having accidentally stumbled upon some very impressive 03 red burgs recently, I am sort of undecided on that one. These wines must have been very tannic 2-3 years ago, and have now achieved a surprising balance. My uncertainty comes from not knowing whether I am now staring at "1928 Bordeaux" or merely at a temporary happy intersection of structure and fruit curves, with the former gaining and overtaking fairly soon. But you may very well be right.
