This 06 still needed nearly two hours to open up. The fruit was nice but the earth and dark minerals needed time to calm down. The blue fruits were good throughout just over powered by dark earth and minerals until an hour forty-five in the decanter.

Classic aromatics and broad flavors, where brooding dark berries intermingles with dried herbs, serious but rounded-off tannins and spicy minerality.

Showing its sunny '09 disposition. Fruit & charm met funk on a terrace overlooking the Mediterranean.

This is excellent now. Tannins mellowed out sufficiently. Nice balance. Long aftertaste.
