Clos de los Siete 2006 Wine Review (NW)

Tasting notes:

Concentrated nose of dark berries, black currant, and coffee

Dark, rich core of fruit and herbs

Finishes with heavy tannins accenting dark chocolate and herbs

Just arrived! I stopped in for a bottle of the 2005 and the 2006 was already in the bin. After one glass, I’ve decided it’s not as good as the prior year. It has deep, dark fruit, coffee, and herbs, but finishes with

heavy tannins that are distracting and mouth-puckering.

Still, I enjoyed the wine considering I was in the mood for a dark, rich South American red. In that case, it’s a wine from Argentina put together by Michel Rolland and a group of others. I paid $14 on sale, marked down from $15. Raise a glass!
