The 2006 Champoux Vineyard (57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Cabernet Franc and 8% Merlot) is another classy wine from this vineyard that offers those textbook Champoux notes of wild herbs, black currants, smoked earth and licorice. This full-bodied, rounded and voluptuous wine has building, fine tannin and a great finish. I love its tannin quality and while it's drinking beautifully today, it will no doubt keep for another decade.

Black fruit, strong aniseed, and a jammy feel. Moderate tannin and lengthy finish. (RH)

(a blend of 57% cabernet sauvignon, 35% cabernet franc and 8% merlot) Bright ruby-red. Subdued but subtly complex nose is much less expressive today than that of the Ciel du Cheval; hints of berries and cedar. Suave and complex, with a downright spherical texture and lovely depth of flavor. At once silky and bright, finishing with subtle sweet berry notes, fine-grained tannins and terrific persistence.
