If you have to lower it down to one night:
It was the day I planted Bordeaux clones on Kathryn Kennedy's vineyand and that evening drank her 84 cab along with 85 Heitz Martha's Vineyard Cab, 85 Caymus,and the surprise of the evening: 1953 Chateau D'Yquem Sauternes along with the menu of wild boar, venison and pear with the sauternes....sublime.
Toss up between C?tes de N?mes, Le Fleurette and "Parallel '45", all from Southern France.
