TN: wines back at home- French, Spanish, and US

Gouleyant, as the French would say. I liked the IX quite a bit, but the X is just that much more fun.

I've never considered Gundlach-Bundschu as one of the better producers. Because of their location and memorable name, they've long been a favorite stop for Sonoma wine tourists and that doesn't usually provide much incentive to make ageworthy wines, sad to say.
