A great Burgundy, say a 2006 Volnay, full bodied yet nice and dry, not as forward as others but oh so satisfying, the velvet coating of the tongue, a beautiful hint of sweetness and such a beautiful finish.

The music takes on a more personal perspective without the dulling of the senses that others commit. It simply heightens the illusion that you and the music are one, or are getting there. There's almost an amusing quality to it.
YMMV but mine never does with this.

All the best,
Nonoise
For the summer with rock music I prefer a martini. Plymouth gin, Dolan vermouth, orange bitters, and a lemon twist. For classical music it is generally red wine, which is currently the 2007 Cade cabernet of Howell Mountain.
