Normally I'd agree and I thought that the Moulin-a-Vent from '01 was really hanging on the edge (IMO) but the '02 I sampled with him was quite fine. I found that you couldn't keep Chiroubles as long.

I would't keep either for more than a week but at less than $4.00 a pop, you could do a LOT LOT worse.

I'm not buying it, mind you. Used to like the stuff but I'll stick to domestics, some bottles from Chile and Australia. Italians are still okay by me but I'm politically on the fence with the Spanish offerings.

Once in a while I've seen a Morgon make it five years too, but very uncommon. But it would have to be a top producer in a Cru Beaujolais for me to touch it the first place.
