2006 Clinet

18 Sep 2011: Very deep colour. A masculine nose of plum, blackberry, black cherry, chocolate, liquorice and a hint of cedar.  Fleshy, rich, robust structure bolstered by refreshing acidity, irm but not aggressive tannin, all framed in a medium body.  Very enjoyable now, but will definitely benefit from further development in bottle over next 6 - 8 years, with a longer life ahead!  17/20
