  3/5/2018 - Oenecnist Likes this wine:

  Bought a case for 10/b in 2009 from a local retailer. Color: dark ruby; Nose: mature red fruit, hint of pepper; Body: very good mouthfeel, red fruits, some pepper; Finish: 5 secs. Enjoyed with roast chicken and sauteed veg with herbes des Provence. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. My evaluation: I've stopped giving scores on a "100-point scale" as I've become less convinced that they can be meaningful to others. I use a 4-category scale (perhaps with +/-)--not including flawed--which runs outstanding/notable/drinkable/poor. I consider this notable+ when considering quality, age, and price.

  Drank and compared w/2012 Terrasses and found this '06 to be much more pleasant on the nose and palate. It has matured into a CdP-like wine. Sorry to only have 1 bottle left.

  Still a very solid wine! Could last another year in the cellar.

  Balanced, medium mouth feel and easy to drink. Of course I should have drunk it sooner, but it still is a good wine.
