The 2006 is a bit different from other years. Easy to drink, it seems to me to pair well with stews and roasts. Has a musty-earthy note , maybe not as "big" as some of the other years. A beautiful wine to end our week and watch the sunset on the patio.

Grilled rack of lamb and screaming good Napa Cabernet. Not the caliber of their 07, but delicious none the less and I think it just a matter of style. What a day!

Nine years in the cellar before drinking this 2006. Very smooth.
