2006 Retrospective (Central Coast, CA): Popped and poured. Somewhat elusive on night one: green pepper, some sweet oak, a touch of garrique. Really came into balance on the next day, with more black than green pepper, less pronounced oak and a sort of candied fig aspect I quite liked.

Perfect right now, loads of fruit but nice complexity on the finish. Cola, blackberry and a bit of chocolate. Open it up and enjoy.

One of the best AM wines this year. Unusally full bodied without the heat or acid. Very nice deep berry and dark cola flavors.
