Moulin Saint Georges 2000 kicked the pants off an Haut Batailley Pauillac from the same vintage (damn! Fass was right!?), but then the Haut Batailley knocked the socks off a Domaine Etxegaraya Irouleguy 2005, which was all dusty berries and stirred Chinese clay. Of course, the Basque was supplied with a plastic cork, so it probably was meant to be drunk up soon and was still holding it's own, so there's a minor victory.
Btw, the MSG was like stepping into a blackberry patch in the middle of summer high season, sans thorns. The HB tasted of termite-infested chokecherry wood, with more cedar and drying fruit, old school, more British.
