Second bottle is of course not corked. This vintage may need some time to come together; I found little of the rich, noble, leather-y Nebbiolo-like aromas the characterized the 06. This is more sparse and lean and gets to a more saline, high toned punchy place with a couple hours of air.

Extremely corked. Anxious to sample other bottles to verify this is an aberration in the shipment we just got.
