2006 Meyney Bordeaux Blend
Reviews of 2006 Meyney Bordeaux Blend
Chris Caughman, JJ Buckley
January 2010
Showing a vivid deep ruby color, the nose oozes with seductive aromas of deep raspberry and ripe black currant with meaty tones and tobacco leaf. The wine enters soft on the palate, which is beautifully textured with an elegant tannin structure to balance the lush black fruit flavors and bright acidity. With plush fruit and a lively palate this wine is perfect for enjoying now, but also has the stuffing to last another five years in the cellar.
90 points, Wine Spectator
March 2009
Spicy raspberry and blackberry aromas lead to a full body, with sweet, ripe fruit, subtle silky tannins and a long, caressing finish. This wine is all in elegance and finish. Very fine. Best after 2013. 13,330 cases made. –JS
