Last night Betsy made pork chops with a vinegar/cornichon/tomato/onion
sauce, with leftover happiness soup and kabocha (squash two ways!). Not as vinegary as it sounds, a Burgundian recipe, but not something I wanted to chance a more expensive Burg on. So went south to Beaujolais for the 2006 JP Brun (Terres Dorees) Morgon. Light tannins, ripe red cherry and strawberry fruit, moderate acidity. Some light herb notes with time. A nice wine, though not particularly compelling. Which is what I'm beginning to think is my reaction to most of the Brun crus. I think from now on my buying of Brun will concentrate on the white and the L'Ancien, and I'll use my Cru Beaujolais bucks for Coudert, Descombes, Desvignes, Vissoux. Still, a perfectly pleasant wine.B Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency. |
