thanks for these notes, too. I confess when I saw "Hanky J", I wondered if that was a South Park character. NOW I get it. Bonneau du Martray is consistently stunning (or at least overachieving, like the 1997 you brought to our Tokyo offline). I didn't use to be a big Chandon d. Briailles fan, but they do overachieve in Corton.

Nope, not Mr. Hanky. You'll note we had no Beaucastel, which would have been the appropriate toast for him.
This 1991 BdM was significantly better than the 1997, though I was thinking of the '97 when I ordered the uni dish. I remembered how well the two went together. The magic was there again. It's a confirmed good pairing.
