Deep red. Explosively perfumed scents of red berries, flowers and minerals, plus an exotic Asian spice quality. This shows a silky texture reminiscent of a high-end New World pinot noir, with deeply concentrated raspberry and cherry flavors brightened by zesty minerals and white pepper. Sappy, sweet and strikingly pure on the long, spicy finish. Brighter than the outstanding 2005 and just as good. This is one of the wine world's most amazing values.
