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.
