Sopranos Steal Wine

I have to say that while I've been a loyal fan of the Sopranos over the years, I have been a little disappointed in this season, especially after waiting, like what?, two years for it. But, my vintage curiosity was peaked in a recent episode when Tony and Christopher did some not-so-legal wine tasting. I've rewound the tape a few times and I'm still trying to figure out what type of wine the two stole. I know it's chateau something, French (obviously), red, and from1986, but that's all I managed to figure out from Tony's (aka Ton's) New Jersey drawl. If anyone knows, please post it in a comment.

Here's part of the episode summary from the HBO site: On the way home from a business trip to Pennsylvania, Tony and Christopher get lost. Stopping to pee in what he thinks is a deserted parking lot, Tony spots some Bikers stealing crates of wine from a liquor store. Alerting Christopher, the two wait until the Bikers head back inside, then start robbing the robbers. While they're loading Tony's Escalade with wine, the Bikers reappear and a shootout ensues.

Tony and Christopher escape, stopping at a steakhouse to celebrate their caper - and enjoy some stolen wine. Over dinner, Tony talks Christopher into having a glass. "Discipline, that's all," Christopher rationalizes. But the pair get drunk and outside in the parking lot discuss their enduring bond.


EDIT: Okay, I discovered what type of wine it was thanks to some email friends - an '86 Chateau Pichon-Longueville, a Bordeaux. Now I can sleep at night!
