More $1 Burgundy

I just opened the 1999 Michel-Colin-Deleger Marangeres 1er La Fussiere and it's yummy. It comes across a little simple for a 1er, but the tart cherry and mushroom Pinot Noir taste are definately there. There is plenty of structure and the finish goes on for quite a bit. Like the rest , it lacks a little power and heft of flavor. It drinks like a simple bourgogne rouge, but that's ok, it cost me a frickin' dollar. So some of it is going in the marinara, and the rest is going down my gullet, as I tune up for a night of whiskey drinking at the Oasis.

Food riff...

Organic pork shank brushed with dried cherry, quince and white vinegar puree. Slow roasted in oven till crisp exterior and lush pulled interior. Over a bed of sage butter risotto.
