Saturday, January 28, 2006 - An absolutely delightful wine on all counts. We spent a long time just on the nose. So many notes and layers! Changes beautifully as it breathes-- very noticeable and enjoyable hints of mint, lovely fruit, and something floral too. Most important to say that over four hours this fully opened and it would be a shame to judge it on the first taste after opening as it does not give much up at first. Interesting that the flavors are not as strong and concentrated as I have tasted in some Chateauneufs; probably just the vintage. Nevertheless, the gorgeous flavors and finish are as good as some of the best wines I have ever tasted. I think I may buy a case.
