Cooking the galette in rendered marmot blubber is optional, but recommended.

they look just like a ground hog... only slightly bigger and fatter

kinda weasel-y thing. I'm thinkin' marten, because it had to weigh atleast 15-20 lbs, it was a big (now dead) weasel-y thing... :-(

gaminess like a knife and the Mouvedre flavors should complement the morels nicely). I'd otherwise lean towards a medium bodied '95 Chateauneuf du Pape like the Chapoutier La Bernadine. I'd probably shy away from Hermitage, but a Cote Rotie might also be nice.

They should really try that as an advertising campaign - heh, heh... ;-)
