Monday, May 22, 2006 - Dinner(s) with friends; 5/21/2006-5/22/2006 (Northern Ohio): A meaty, leathery young red fruit nose that's remarkably clean for Beaucastel. Full and expansive on the palate, and benefits greatly from time in a decanter. Concentrated but stops short of being overtly flashy. Some unresolved tannin. The most youthful and best bottle of this I’ve had - still years away from maturity.
