Ripe apple on nose and palate with savory spice and faint tropical fruit and earth hints. Very good density and length, and mostly good balance. Kept getting better in glass for an hour+ before reaching a plateau. Last glass the 2nd day was much less interesting. What a pleasant surprise (vs last bottle from same case opened one year). This was bigger, fresher, and so much better!

I remember really enjoying this wine when young. Tonight it was drinkable, but very advanced, even for a 2006.
