From a split via SommSelect. In good condition and well beyond primary. Dried fruit and oxidized. No secondary savory aspects but lots of sweet tobacco. Soft and flabby for my tastes. Would prefer some acid but I'm loving the modest abv and pipe tobacco.
Decent amount of sediment even after upright for 7 days.

It has been 3 years since I drank my 2006 and it is still great, if not slightly better. I presented this last Saturday at my wine tasting. It was a favorite. Can not find any faults with this wine.

Aged beautifully. Mature red fruits. Dried back cherry and blackberry. Very smooth. Integrated tannins. Drink now and enjoy.
