Hasn’t developed into much. Cassis, fig, some vanilla from new oak. Seems thin and poorly-textured from heavy filtration. Not bad; just not what I’d expect from a mature ‘06.

Bordeaux, blend of 3 grapes, from 2006. Good color, and good nose: red fruits, coffee, chocolate, earthy and a mushroom too. In the mouth it lacked structure, was too tannic and too acidic. 76/100
