WTN:Do what's good for you, or you're not good for anybody

2010 Jean-Marc Burgaud Morgon Côte du Py James
Right now this is hard as nails. There was a peek of fruit when I first poured it, but then it was no good for nothing. Closed up like a bank vault.

Bonus points for getting the reference.

That too many people have died?

Is it something Jesse James related?

So what is the similar quote from the Princess Bride? I know you are a fan!

BTW is this the Dressner import?
Yes, and how many deaths will it take 'til he knows

No idea about the quote, but I wish I had known you were going to open a 2010 James! Then I could have talked you out of it. Even the "basic" Burgaud CdP 2010 is tight and James is always hard as nails when young.

Jacques wins the prize. I looked at the bottle, and the song popped into my head. I had hoped that drinking it would remove the curse, but sadly it only made it worse.

How good was Billy Joel before 1980? Just one great album after another.

It's odd, but with both Billy Joel and Elton John I have gotten totally sick of them, and generally no longer enjoy any of their music. Having "James" stuck in my head is driving me nuts!
