2006, Talked up as one of the great years, lets see.
Dark Crimson colour which surprised me a little. Nose is exceptional, barnyard floor and a hint of spice and cinnamon. I sat smelling this wine for a long time before tasting. On the palate, definite aged characters coming through. Lovely mouth feel with plum and spice, some tanin but on the way out. Great finish, however the nose lead me to expect more. Still a lovely wine which i would buy as long as its available. 90/100, awesome nose but a touch thin on the palate.
