"For something a little on the fruity side," have you considered an '03? The initial over-the-top fruit-bomb character seems to have faded a bit on most of the '03's I have tried recently and they are drinking as quite nice young Burgundies right now.

To teach people what Burgundy really tastes like, or to get them boozed up on Pinot-as-Shiraz?
