Made a huge pot of chilli yesterday and

[VouvrayHead]

I was visiting my folks in St. Louis last week.
We were without electricity or heat for 2 and a half days.
We chopped some firewood and heated at least a couple of rooms with the fireplace.
We pioneers also went through a good case of wine including the '98 Dom. (If only the Donner party had some of that on hand... err. no pun intended.)
I was shocked just how uncomplex the n/v Egly seemed afterwards. Not a fair comparison, but still...
Excellent wine and a very memorable weekend.
