White Burgundy - Chablis Grand Cru "Les Clos" 2000 Maison J. Moreau & Fils
Red Burgundy - Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 1998 Maison Laboure-Roi
Red Bordeaux - Pessac-Leognan Grand Cru Classe 1999 Chateau Olivier

They were okay, but nothing really stood out. The espresso was great however!
whynotniwot....thanks for the list! I don't recognize the brands but they sound suitably snooty so I'm sure they'll be fine.
As I said, I'm not a big wine/champagne drinker and would probably be just as happy with a bottle of Gallo in a brown paper bag. But Mrs. Cholula will be thrilled.
DeltaFlyingProf...we're not flying until November so your beverage report would be very helpful.
Thanks...
