Both are just delightful:

2004 Domaine du Pegau, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, France, $60. While expensive, this wine is undoubtedly the star of vintage. The wine is big, bold and deep, with layers of black fruit, earth, garrigue, Baker’s chocolate and coffee. Balance is impeccable. The wine was tasted from magnum; 95/95.

2004 Vieux Telegraphe, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, La Crau, France, $45. This wine exudes kirsch and raspberries on the nose and palate, augmented by a nice streak of minerality. Tannins are silky smooth, with balancing acidity and a long finish. This was tasted from magnum; 93/93.

Please don't yell at me..... are those prices for magnums or .750?

Me thinks .750

You are right, Sir Drewski, per 750 ml price. I WISH it was the mag price!
