Nice golden colour when first poured, lloking suspiciously oxidized
Nose is actually rather pretty now with tea and honey/wax notes. Taste is totally different, some oaky, apple, and other deep notes,...very densely flavoured wine, still tasting like it could use a bit more time to tame it. Nice acidity went perfectly with meals ordered (a sea scallop dinner and a Halibut with fried oyster dinner).
I liked it but no where near as much as his fresh 2004's and the nicely aged 1998's.
Dinner at Radius. Still a great place to go.
