High alcohol concentrated fruit is back seat . Drink up before it goes over the edge.

Still fruit forward on the palate with some pencil lead and wood coming right behind the impressions. Tannins are nicely integrated. Still in a great drinking window.

I really enjoyed this tonight. At 14 years past the vintage it is still beautifully fresh, but has developed a lovely complexity. Really nice!

Big dark fruit with a very soft finish. Celebrating our 9 year old's b'day so 2006 perfect.
