This makes the second time I've posted about the laser-accurate wine counsel of my friend Nadine at Au Nouveau Nez in the 11ème. Granted, this is partly because with characteristic lack of tact I often urge last-minute dinner invites to vist her cave, conveniently situated right beside my apartment. So at any given time I've tasted 90% of what she has in stock. But beyond this, she's got a great palate for underdog wines, as evidenced by the bottle of Domaine le Mazel "Cuvée Charbonnières" that my friend E showed up with recently, having told Nadine she was looking for something to go with some sardines I was fixing.
